When has he been "drooping around the stage"...lol???? Did you watch the Cleveland live stream??

Yeah. Didn't notice much different. Mostly just standing in the same spot.

Watch the video of Living In Sin. What would you call that? Drooping's the only word that really comes to mind.

Did you watch the entire show from start to finish? He's never hopped around much on the circle when singing the slower songs. And he sang Living In Sin the EXACT same way last tour there was no movement. If he was a statue I'd call it, but he's far from that when you look at his performances since really DC.

That's because he was playing guitar. I'm not really blaming him. Like I said, it's a slow song. He's not gonna run all over the place. He just looks bored. You and I have seen him a hundred times. To the casual observer, he looks like he's ready to fall asleep half the time.

I don't think Jon sounded worse on LIS than he did the past tours, but the stink eye in the end was out of place.

I am not one to defend Jon, but...

it's amazing how often we get on the guy's back for giving the band a hard time. However, it seems like every show the band are messing something up enough to annoy Jon. Now, I don't know about you, but if just about every show they're messing something up, I doubt I'd be happy either. I come on an 'Official [insert cit here] thread...' and more often than not there's a video where the band makes a mistake and it angers Jon, and soon after people are unhappy about it. Just saying...

Oh, and don't come back with ''Jon hasn't been able to sing since 2001'' or whatever. It's not the same thing.

At the end of Living In Sin Jon puts his arm up to signal the that he wants the song to end after the next four bars or whatever. They do stop but it just doesn't sound very good, I think Tico hits the bass drum as if he's carrying on then quickly rectifies matters. I bet 99% of the crowd didn't even realise there was a mistake but Jon for some reason (probably ego) has to make something of it.

This is what happens when you band "never rehearse" Jonny boy.

But, they had just sound checked that song before the show so it was rehearsed although brief.

Yeah they probably blew through it but it looked like Jon ended the song earlier than he usually would hence the arm in the air and it threw the band off slightly.
