Ah, good old Hyde Park 2013. The show where Jon delivered his last honestly GOOD/great vocal performance on any song:

Even Always sounded very solid, and Phil's solo was truly spine-chilling:

After looking through the vids on YT a bit more deeply, I also found a great version of Blood On Blood (which will unfortunately kill Jon's voice for good at Wembley in case they play it):

Jon's energy on Love's The Only Rule was absolutely immense:

And, of course, who could forget Dry County, with one of Phil's best solos to date?

How I miss those days (prior to 2016-17, I never thought I'd say this)... compared to nowadays Jon could still sing quite well back then, the set lists were much better - just look at that Hyde Park encore, or Slane, Manchester, Birmingham, Prague, Milan, Madrid, the whole sets of Cologne and Bern, etc. -, FFS, even the crowds were better. Just look at the crowd on that Always video and you won't see many, if any, people holding out their cellphones (whereas nowadays pretty much the whole view of the audience in the video would probably consist of phones)...
