    oh no....looking at Bon Jovi's eyes and hearing his voice....it looks like he took some bad medicine.

    Oh boy
  3. Seen them like 8 times, but not since smoking ruined his voice. I could tell from The Circle Tour MSG Blu Ray that his voice was in a bad place. Justin Hawkins gave him a pass on You Tube, but was still critical. A shame. I don't think Bono would carry on should his voice do that.

    Wow, that's really, really bad. Maybe some corticoids for the throat did interact in the wrong way? He looks drugged and sounds absolutely out of tune. My god. Painful to hear and see.
  5. I hadn't realised this had become an issue for him.

  6. Wow, that is such a sad and embarrassing performance.
  7. It's not only the out-of-tune thing (which is absolutely terrible of course), the main problem is that he can't keep up wih the pace of the song, he can't breathe and loses rhythm. He's behind the beat and he makes the band sound sluggish (they sound tight and killer otherwise). So so so bad.

    I'm really surprised no one from his closer circle has played some recordings to him and told him to just quit. Better today than tomorrow.
  8. wow, this is serious, I feel for him.
    this is so much worse than losing a voice, his timing is completely off, he is completely out of tune - as if he can't hear a thing. He has a lot of monitors around him, while the other guys use in-ears.
    Maybe he is deaf?
    There is something about his physical appereance which is also quite worrying.
    Oh man, it's hard to bear/to see this, there is no need to bash him, something is wrong and it's sad.
  9. I’ve had a look at a few videos from various dates this year and there’s definitely something more to it than just his voice. A real shame to see it playing out like this.
  10. Oh my. That was tough.
  11. That's really not good at all.
    It's like he's totally lost the timing. There has to be something that's been caused by a health issue - when he goes to sing, you can see in his eyes he's struggling like it's actually incredibly painful.
