The acoustic set I saw was really a combination. IBTFY is probably the most TLFR like, but BOR and Always are really a cross of straight up acoustic and tlfr, vocally they weren't replicas of the tlfr versions, it seems like Jon has hybrided them btwn all out acoustic and tlfr style.

seriously, unless you have heard them live, don't pre judge and convince yourself that they are going to be bad, they aren't, at the shows I went to both songs were very well done, and Jon really sang his ass off on them both.

I'm a very big fan of the original versions of both of these songs, but both of them done this way live were excellent. Personally, I really love this version of IBTFY, it's very cool to watch Richie and Jon together on this one.

If you can let yourself go in with an open mind, stop comparing it to the original version and take it for what it is live, you may well find what I did, that all three of thes songs are very well done, Jon's vocals are really excellent on the two ballads, and on the nights I saw them, Jon and Richies vocals on IBTFY were superb, it made this song almost brand new for me.
