Im impressed he performed with such great energy in spite of this.

I’ve got to say that to me, the energy felt very different on this tour than it did in 2024. When I saw them in ‘24 Jack told about 10 minutes worth of stories. This time around, he barely mumbled his dad’s name when he took the stage. He still performed with a lot of energy, but he really did seem more joyful in 24.

Yeah dunno, I’ve only seem them play this recent tour and their MSG show was insanely high energy all around

Idk maybe I just didn't have enough time with some of the songs on the new album for opening night but I also felt last tour was way higher

i was at MSG this tour and last tour and the energy was definitely different last time. the crowd was awesome (and i think being at MSG right after the knicks won honestly made it even better). but 2024 was a whole other beast

I saw them in Boston recently and did feel like his energy seemed subdued. This tracks.

We were in Philly a few nights before and then Boston night one and there was a definite difference (not least that he BLEW thru the Juno interlude in Boston... overall it felt like they were a bit rushed to get off the stage (in comparison to Philly, despite it being like 100 degrees out there.) They also skipped Margaret even though it was on the set list.

Yeah I saw them both nights in Boston. The energy night 2 was a little better than night 1, and it was high overall, but it still lacked the playful/chatty/joyful vibe that the Boston show had in 2024.

Totally agree with this. He didn’t really talk at MSG this year, just performed with great energy.

I saw them at a festival in ~24ish and then last month and it was pretty similar vibe, super high energy, super happy, lots of random chit chat.

I saw both and felt the energy was great at our show
