Any idea if the third verse was skipped on purpose or accidentally? :D

Best KTF performance in a long time!

Happy new year everyone! :)

These Days- Frankfurt 2008.

I think this is the best version of the song I've heard in the recent era. He really tries to hit the notes instead of coasting through them. Anyone else agree?

Since I was there I definately agree! It also was the only time in recent times where he went for the higher register while singing the "rather die than fade away" part.

Aloha !

Yeah, it's the best performance of These Days I've seen. Jon did the song justice from start to finish and Lorenza pushed Richie to play the guitar solo himself which was a nice surprise as well. The first 20 minutes of the show were rather slow but it really picked up during Sleep. Jon was in really good form that night and really kept pushing the band.

Great scene from Mannheim: Jon trying to tell David that he should sing the part after the solo, but he can't read Jon's lips and furthermore it's great how no one cares about Bobby's solo :D

For me, this is the best These Days in recent days.

I haven't notices this before that Richie asked her three times to join him during the outro and she refused. However he didn't play any outro solo, just the main riff

It can't be seen from the video if there was any communication between Richie and Lorenza before the solo but it looks like he automatically played it. I've watched some videos and sometimes it was just Lorenza playing the solo (Tokyo 2008) and sometimes they somehow jammed or switched roles in playing the lead. This was mainly when he was singing the song. When it was Jon's turned, he played the solo himself. However in Leipzig it was Lorenza doing the solo. In Punchestown it was Richie (fortunately because I was there).

It's funny.. "read these lips" :) he wanted to give him more lines after dubbing him during the second part of second (or rather third) verse :)

What I like more about this video, is realizing who uploaded the video and what he seems to be still working on!

I can´t recall a mix with richie´s guitar so loud in the last decade like it was on Letterman show 2010



It´s shame he used an ESP there
