Who's digging on the live version of Whir?
I feel like with that extended outro we got a little taste of what this song is meant to be:

Billy is singing well on this tour IMO, his voice is sounding good/strong at the moment

I believe there are a couple reasons for it- 1) easier to find a pitch without a hard consonant. 2) fighting feedback on stage. I doubt he is singing with much volume - less strain on his voice - and pops and cracks will add to the likelihood of feedback occurring. with a mostly acoustic setup this could be disastrous

I think it's just an issue of vocal strain. It's a band-aid fix because proper vocal technique would change his tone too much -Billy has sung from the head his whole life (which is bad technique and unsustainable). Do we really want him singing these songs as a baritone? nope. |

He's been eating all those consonants. Look at his fat belly.

look up all you want. having worked in the studio and in live sound for 15 years i can tell you its absolutely true. Is that the the case in this instance? Maybe not, but plosives plus heavily amplified acoustic instruments are hell.
