Jack’s best live work with the band was on the Mirrorball tour

The peak of this band as a unit was in late '97/early '98.
Basically watch Single Video Theory and listen to Give Way and that's everything you need.
They had recently created Yield, for which they all contributed.
They had incredible chops after weeks of intense rehearsal for the Rolling Stones shows and subsequent Yield tour, which was a reintroduction of sorts that clearly mattered to them.
They had found the perfect mix of adventurism and accessibility.

And they still had Jack.
Ed had just begun learning how to enjoy himself while also having something to prove and having complete vocal control. So, he still had a snarl and a bite but was also enjoying himself. made for awesome shows and charisma. And I loved his outfits.

Yeah prime Ed hair as well.
Your description of his voice here is exactly what I'm getting at - it was a best of both worlds era for them. Energy and control.

Can someone with more drum knowledge than me talk about Jack's playing a bit or explain it to me? I like him a lot on the songs of his era but on older songs his playing can sound awkward to me. Where Dave sounded huge Jack sounds rather small and... dry? Does he have a unique drum set up? I think it's his snare that sounds very tight/dry to me. His drum sound does not have a lot of space/openness. Songs like Animal or Go have a weird quality to them when Jack is playing them.
