next leg of the tour or How Jon loses his voice again
 

hey

have u seen american idol ? damn, the poor bastard's out of breathe most of the song and well, he even screws up the tempo probably cause of band monitoring (I'm betting someone was fired last night eh eh eh). anyways, his singing wasn't really good and I don't mean that high note shit. i mean his lungs. he ought stop smoking, the schmuck..

I wouldnt be worried about it, since just before the tour started they did Superman on some German show and didnt sound good either, and Jon was also out of key most of the time.
Then when the tour started, his voice came back and kept improving. :)

Jon's voice is in great shape. I am not worried. He has proved he can hold a long note especially in LTOR.

The man is sounding fantastic this tour.

his voice is amazing this tour!!
the best in many years

It takes his voice a few songs to warm. He never sounds great on 'Blood on Blood' to open the shows. In watching the webcast(s) however it's noticeable that his voice improves + his energy increases over the course of the first several songs.

hayfever
 

Doesn't he always get hayfever this time of year? - I know it was probably an indoor performance but it would explain why it wasnt so great, haven't seen it but he's mentioned hayfever and allergies at other times in the past.
