I couldn't really hear Jeff at all. I know everyone gave me endless shit, but I did say that when there's 3 guitarists in the group, 1 guitarist always takes a back seat and is quieter than the rest. I'm just happy it's Jeff! |

Yeah, Billy's getting old. It's super cool to see the 3 of em up there again though. I think it's gonna be quite a killer tour.

You guys are getting carried away by the shiny and oh so bright carnival. This is what narcissists do to save face, put on a big show to mess with your emotions. Don’t forget how well all felt in February when we got a peek behind the curtain. That shit was real.
No offense to Mike Byrne on bass |

Ive seen them live so many times including acoustic shows and that was perhaps the most uninspired and phoned in performance of Zero ive ever seen or heard, considering the hundreds of live bootlegs ive heard. Bollz was off tonight maybe he was sick but he clearly has no energy or stage presence at all, they wont last an entire tour like this, his voice is shot and he looked exausted and distant and opressed. Pow?

Zero sounds great wth you talking about.
i get the vibe BC is nervous which he always is when it comes to TV performances. it never works well with him. |

shit's so placid it makes Ocean Tour DVD looks like fuckin' 93 at the Metro
Jimmy's great obviously but when literally no one else in the band is doing shit to even half-match it, does it really matter that much? |

He sang the first few lines of Solara in completely the wrong key before settling into the actual key on, “I’m here to stay.”
A common wedding singer would get fired for that shit |

honestly, i wasn't sure if that's what was actually going on or the "chugging" was just too atonal to provide an actual discernible key and he was actually on

I, so much, want to love the song and think SP is back. They're not. Jimmy mauling fills and James playing amazing leads won't help shitty songwriting. I know you know I know how much I love Jimmy C. Jimmy's not gonna save the band. The acoustic Towers of Rabble from the Double Door shows was way better than this. |

I thought the Fallon performance of Solara was pretty impressive, but man, that Zero effort is a little sad isn't it?

You can hear him throughout the song revert to this breathy thing where there’s not even a discernible pitch (the first a-yee a-yee a-yee, for example.) I guess it is what it is. He’s not a musician’s musician. I just wish he wouldn’t brag about his skills all the time then do shit like that. Just embrace being a Dylan type musician, stop pretending you’re Malmsteen. |

Funny how some of you try to find any positive thing in this performance. The song sucks so much. Why dont you go to jimmys jazzband if its sooo good.
Billys singing has become so obviously annoying. I played the song to a bunch of friends. After 1 min they said stop that shit. I wasnt surprised. How lame the sp became. And now a best of tour. What a sellout |

Not really. At all. He’s sloppy as hell and misses half the notes he tries to play in his leads. Jeff is much more a musician’s musician. Billy has nothing resembling the skill set of a professional guitarist

James sounded and looked awesome. Billy’s vocals were weak and off key. Also #firejeff

jeff is a session musician's session musician, maybe
but no one who actually values soul and individuality behind an instrument would give him much of a shit billy, on the other hand, is distinctive and interesting, being a great musician doesn't always revolve around perfection or how closely you can resemble a machine |

Billy could blow wet farts into a microphone on this zero and I’d still love it, it’s so great to hear james solo on this rather than having to put up with Jeff’s aimless fucking noodling. And then jimmy owning that groove like the band is his little bitch. Love it.
