It's how it used to be without all the bells and whistles and prerecorded music piped thru everything to make it a pretty perfect picture. If you were 18 again, these guys would be the band to see, raw and without a net.
this is rock and roll..

I’d argue that you can’t go back. This works for young up and coming bands… hungry to pull you in, and living for the moment. Fat, rich, corporate geezers… not so much.

Plenty of older singers have lost their voice or don't sound like they used to but they still look like they enjoy being on stage. David Lee Roth in 2015 Van Halen didn't sound like 1981 David Lee Roth either, but he still looked like he was having fun. Sometimes too much fun! Paul Stanley needed vocal tracks but otherwise he still seemed like Paul Stanley. Vince looks like there's somebody with a shotgun on the side of the stage forcing him up there. So when you see a band with zero passion or energy, it's like what's the point? Is he just that medicated? Does his body hurt from moving? Is he just bored out of his mind? All of the above?

I’m sad Tommy isn’t twirling any sticks. I thought his hand was fixed so he could twirl again
