This song is one of my favorite GGD songs because it just rocks. John Rzeznik is great on vocals and bass and Robby Takac is awesome on lead bass and Mike Malinin has the beat perfect on the drums.
Awesome performance! He cant hit the high notes as good anymore but still sounds amazing. What do you think Johnny is motioning to at 2:14 ? Looks like he wants his vocals turned up or something??
Damn Johnny must have had a bad day with his voice, or a bad warm up, cuz hes singing so low. I mean he has a deep voice but he can hardly go up there
No. The entire song here is played at least a half-step down. Since the patented screech-y power that Jonny is known for is something that the human vocal only allows easily at certain ranges for a singer, what you're hearing that sounds so badly is just him singing at a range that doesn't express the best things about his vocal style. However, it IS easier to sing lower physically. That's why bands do this sort of thing for live shows. It lessens the vocal stress.
Let me just add one more thing. This isn't done because Johny can't do a set at normal range. It's because when you're on tour you're doing this night after night, sometimes only a day between breaks, and after a long time it wears on your vocals. So bands will often play their music live at a lower tuning than on the album in order to lower the stress levels the vocalist must endure.
@bojanglesme its not lip sync....you can tell his voice is straining at parts and it doesnt sound exactly like the actual song. its sounds good though
I wasn't planning to upload all the songs, but since I have been getting requests to upload certain songs, I will cut and upload all songs from the concert soon.

Yea it must be a delay. If it was a tape it would sound better. Plus at the start of the song you can hear him coming up to the mic a second late.

I think it's lip sync, you can actually see it at 0:23
