Yup, releasing performances like this one of Bad Medicine is not doing them any favors.

The first two videos that were released (Bed of Roses and It's My Life) were far from perfect vocally, but they still had their moments of Jon being Jon. This doesn't, he just can't keep up. I can't imagine anybody putting this audio on their phones listening without video and thinking it sounds good.

Someone should remind Jon about the 'fat Elvis' analogy he used to love making when he still sounded decent.

The Waaaait a minute part actually was really good. Trouble is you have to go through almost 6 minutes of drudge and people might not get that far.

You are absolutely right, I didn't lol... I guess my appetite for bad performances is not great

The more clips i see from this tour the more I’m convinced it will prove the last, at least until/unless something can be worked out with Richie.

I really don’t want to be that guy but blimey that Bad Medicine performance was appalling, vocally. Jon can barely keep up with the music and looks almost embarrassed because of it. I’m genuinely surprised they realesed this particular video.

I wonder how Tio and David feel about Jon’s vocal struggles, genuinely. It must be upsetting for them to watch his decline, no matter how big they’re pay check. They are, after all, loyal to him.

I listened to the Shepherd Bush Empire show from 2002 today and - despite not being at his peak vocally - he was still enjoyable to listen to and even demonstrated some rasp in Unidvided. He couldn’t possibly recreate that now. It’s all rather sad

I agree.. Yes it is fucκιn sad and very unfortunate that this had to happen to this band ! This band that, as a friend of mine had put it once, they re the happiest band in R'n'R 😀
I am a not at all a fan of their later period but I 'd very gladly take a million what about now albums and a million of "who says you can't go home" ( a billion of "it's alright"s ! ) if this band (and yes in particular Jon) was performing pleasantly, to the standards of a typical rock act and if Jon was in good form, relaxed and enjoying himself !

I actually think that they'll do the Australia/Japan leg as planned, and then have Richie come play with them in Europe. At least, I hope it happens.

They're going to post another video tomorrow:

WGIGO is a song I could never hear again and be fine with that. I didn't like it when he sang it with energy and I like it less now. This is the first Pro shot I've not enjoyed, despite the obvious flaws the others have they were still enjoyable. This really wasn't..

I don’t like that song either!
And I hate Phil X hair
