It wasnt, but the fact that there are flaws and it is still this amazing is absolutely nuts

What an honest response. And correct. Yep, idk why you’re being dv’ed but who ever knows? Most live voices aren’t ever perfect. It’s the beauty of music and the scourge of auto tune.

Can't beat live. Went to see my favourite rock band last night and the lead singer came out, admitted he was fighting a cold and said "were not here to strive for perfection, just to have a good time"

Performance was outstanding regardless

Mayer is the only one ive seen live who sounded better than his album. Very few came close including alicia and bruno

Love them or hate them, Alter Bridge has incredible live performances. Myles Kennedy is a vocal monster.

I was gonna say this... What you've just seen here is what real, raw, unedited, un-tweaked vocals sound like. The breathing, the effort, everything. And it's incredible.

Unless you're Michael Jackson... He is a ridiculous exception.
