Re: 2022 tour
I know how you feel. I am unable to support what DC is doing. Have had enough of the "background" vocals, the dodging of notes, and pulling away the mic from his mouth at each and every turn. If you can't do it right, then don't do it all.

Re: 2022 tour
I agree.
Cardiff last night and I travelled in hope given it was 4 days since the last gig but I don't think you could clearly hear DC for more than 20% of the time and then it sounded awful. In previous recent tours he could at least still carry the quiet bit (intro to HIGA, Ain't no love, Is this love etc) but no longer. I'm glad that was the end of it because frankly it's got embarrassing. It doesn't help that they've gone out with 2 bands whose vocalists can still lead the band. Very noticeably emptier for WS than it was for Foreigner.

Re: 2022 tour
I think Justin Hawkins sums up my feelings on DC at 70 right here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zgZB_gF7XPo
Yeah ... his voice is gone but they've been let down by dodgy sound mixing. Additionally ... He's giving up the road soon so I'm not entirely sure what people are expecting? This is a last hurrah. Let him have it. He seems to be very aware that his singing days are over.
Best advice I could give to anyone who wants to go is know what you're getting in to, go to see DC one last time and savor the memories. If you don't want to see a clearly diminished Coverdale perform then don't go and, savor the memories.
At this point...it's all we got. Whitesnake will be here in September and quite frankly I'm not going. Mostly because I I'm ok with the multiple times I have seen him. This farewell tour isn't giving me anything I haven't already seen from him.

Yes, you're completely right. You and Just Hawkins. That's it.

Re: 2022 tour
For all the faults and issues I like this version of Burn. No Reb Beach (not well apparently). Feels quite energised.

It seems quite a mess. Three ill band members and no mention of Covid. Hmm

Re: 2022 tour
The other Snakes can do the singing, Coverdale just has to swing his microphone

Re: 2022 tour
Sad to hera it. I had my tickets for Sarajevo. I wanted to see them for the last time. And even more - to let my children see them.
