So the least talented? Absolutely. Jon's biggest talent nowadays I'd say is milking his fanbase and pretending he cares. He's very good at that, but it also says something about the audience still falling for his worn out tricks.

I'd say it's a bit harsh to say that he hasn't written a great song in 10 years.
I was however of the same impression as Jon being the weakest performer on stage...until I went to Wembley last year. I've been to many shows previously and had obviously seen videos from the THINFS tour, so was anxious about seeing his decline...but I was still amazed by the guy. Ok - his voice wasn't as strong...and live less-noticeable...but he has a presence, a charisma, a work ethic and still everyone in the band was looking up to Jon, and not because he's "the boss". As a frontman they really don't come much better and he works his ass off - not just his interaction with the crowd but he still wants to give his all. I can't judge for other shows on the tour because I wasn't there, but from Wembley that was very apparent.
