I listened to the May 9 2022 show and it sounds pretty good, but why are they going so short? I don't think I've ever heard them doing only one encore instead of two, and they usually do 34-35 songs a show, and now they seem to be doing around 24-25 instead....

On the Phoenix bootleg, Ed talks about getting COVID and how bad it was, and he says it was probably due to his smoking history. Might just be that he can't do it anymore.
Honestly, at the shows I went to in 2018, Ed was gassed by the 2nd encore and basically forgot all the lyrics. Shorter shows will probably lead to better performances.
The set lists do look good but I hope they get longer. I will say the show sounded really good although I think this is the first album maybe ever to not sound better live which I guess speaks to how good the production is.

Backspacer and a lot of LB sounded worse live to my ears, and that's keeping in mind how poor the LB production is. I thought the Gigaton songs really came to life in a live setting.

How have the 2022 shows been? I'm a bit nervous. I was just thinking when I first saw them in 2013, how impressed I was how good the shows were (considering I didn't like the 2012 bootlegs at all) and how much better Eddie sounded from the year before. Now I realize that was almost ten years ago. He still sounding alright? Gigaton was really good which excites me, but live I wonder if they're still holding up or sounding a bit weak now.
ten years of mikejasond.... time flies
check out the Oakland videos with Richard S. on drums, they kick ass

Proof?
Jeff died but they preserved his brain and are waiting until his new realistic looking robot body is perfected before they announce he’s fine and was never sick.
