Nope, Shanks is worse. And all of his playing sounds worse live than when watching the videos

Phil was one of the best parts about my show. Shanks, whilst not as noticeable as I thought, was the worst

I liked Phil as well. I also loved how much fun he had. Unfortunately, Shanks was really noticable for me, a lot more than I thought. The worst musician that has ever been on the stage with BJ.

I understand that we all want rock, it’s just that JBJ thinks Phil X’s style is way too much, and I agree... -_-
On the other hand, Shanks is too poor...
Geez the band is a mess... Lol
But I think shows are slowly more and more enjoyable to me lately and please the new album has to be better than THINFS! That’s all...

I agree with most of it but I don't think Phil X is too much. It was pretty good in Wembley. The band was pretty good as a band. Shanks just does not belong there

I meant more about inputs for albums than live.
I think both have a lot to improve live, and on the other hand JBJ has said before that auditions for him are “harrowing”.

I doubt that Shanks auditioned for him, tbh. Almost everybody thinks he is crap...

Of course Shanks didn’t audition.

I meant it rethorically and wanted to express that I think Shanks has a 'special' place in the band and the standards that apply to the others do not apply to him.

Didn't they actually audition a few and Jon was tired by the auditioning process, so Shanks kept begging him to add him to the line-up? I vaguely remember one interview where Jon said that (something along the lines of Shanks saying: "just take me, I know all these songs anyway").

It’s like JBJ likes recommendations from friends: Phil X was Shanks, Matt O’Ree was David; let alone the original members of the band >_< lol
