I'm glad I'm not the only one whose noticed that Al seems to have affected a sillier, goofier voice for Handy by the middle of the tour (from the medley clips I've seen on YouTube anyway). Does anyone else thing he might consciously be trying to mock or poke fun at Iggy Azaleas' "blaccent" by doing this?

I went and looked at a video I had favourited from near the start of the tour and one posted 5 days ago; my conclusion is Handy sounds the same in both? Maybe I just can't hear it. I did find that the other band members are much more audible than some of the earlier videos/showings. Could just be the quality of video or equipment at shows, but it just sounds like they're more involved and makes for less awkward dead air than I had previously heard/watched.

I watched some other recent videos because I haven't been catching up. Poor boy! There was one video of Smells Like Nirvana and he just looked so tired. I don't know if it was one of the double-day shows or if he was simply tired. After he did the gargling bit it almost looked like he could have passed out.

Do you think after the 100 shows he's gonna be sick of hearing any of theese songs again for a while?? Ha ha.

Generally is it better to sit in front of Jim or Steve? I could not get seats in the middle at all. The last time I was on JIm's side, but I wonder if Steve's side is better. Or has anyone noticed any difference?

I would say neither is better since they both rule. On Steve's side you will be by his cab and it is loooud, because he loves it loud. You may have issues hearing Jim a lot more on Steve's side but you also get Steve who is as entertaining as Al and a better view of Ruben too. On Jim's side the sound is always a bit more even because no matter where you are you will hear Steve just fine but Jim much better from his side, and you probably won't have Bermuda's face shielded from his crash symbol which could happen from either side. There is a considerable difference but you will be happy either way, further back will be better for the full band sound but personally I love Steve's side, just never get tired of watching him slap the bass and sing back up. Jim should be a little louder but he plays lighter sometimes when using his nails or even with a pick because if he doesn't he'll painfully break one of them well grown nails! Hope this helps a bit :D HAVE FUN
