You know, I was just thinking about Jon's limited vocabulary last night after watching a bootleg from way back. He certainly has had the same schtick for a long time - obviously he is comfortable with it. Now, I find myself expecting to hear certain things at a show. You could argue that he should mix stuff up verbally too - and he has on this tour - quite a bit actually. But it's always kinda nice to hear the "strap yourself in" or " How we doin so far?"
And as far as the alrights at the end of WSYCGO, (I hate to make another comparison to Bruce) but if anone saw even one show of The Rising Tour, Bruce did a similar thing with Mary's Place. And the Bruce fans complained about it just as much - too repetitive - too boring etc. The minute I heard Who Says live, that's the first thing I thought of.
