You guys should have been on the front row at Wembley stadium on August 20th as I was, Jon's voice sounded fabulous live and that was a night that kicked every other rock band I have ever seen into touch. I concede that at Gateshead two days later his voice was tired, cracking a little on those top notes, but he still held it together despite a freezing wind across the stage area. Yes, age does affect his voice, it affects all of our voices! But IMHO, the best singer in Bon Jovi is the guy who gets the backing vocals. Richie Sambora has a world class versatile voice, but rarely get to use it to its best advantage.
And didn't Vince Neil always sound bad anyway?
