Definitely hear an improvement in Jon's overall voice, particularly in Bed Of Roses. I wouldn't say he's quite back to 2013 standards though, and the lack of movement is still bothering me...

Considering how shit he's been sounding since mid-2013, this is one hell of a vocal improvement for a stadium show. You can at least hear him and he's singing not shouting which I wasn't expecting at all tbh.

I'm at work so I'm not watching the videos to see if he's still glued to the spot (he is, I'm sure) so I'm not going to say "OMG Jon is back!!!!!!1!". But for an average fan this is really really good and average fans fill stadiums... Hell, the first leg was pretty successful and most of the fans were gushing about the shows on Twitter and Facebook. We are the only grouchy ones ranting and raving

Amazing 1st Verse of Wanted .. Jon sounds really good for a performance in 2017
WTF????? I'd easily believe it if someone told me the first verse was edited in from a 2011 show! Jon sounds absolutely incredible for '17!

Conspiracy theory: they can't do lots of shows because their new sound system includes state-of-the-art mics with the best built-in autotune, and on top of being super expensive equipment they can't risk many people knowing their sekrit.

Only a few selected ones know it, so they can only book dates when their "top secret" team is available. Oh and they are sworn to secrecy and face a lifetime of listening to Jon's raw, unadulterated voice serenading them under their balcony every Friday at midnight in case they fail to comply

The band doesn't use a pitch-correcting device of any kind while performing live (save for Jon's pre-recorded "livin' on a praaayyyeeer..."). It's clear that the performances aren't auto-tuned, as every now and then Jon hits a bum note (sometimes a more subtle and sometimes a more audible one) and it wouldn't be heard at all if he used autotune. His voice has just improved - from an unbearable level to an average one.

Awesome show overall. Great setlist and Jon's singing was (in places) pretty f&#$@!g amazing.

It was a joke... was it that bad?

It was an improvement, but let's not get carried away. Still average at best for most parts.
