All you have to do is listen to him live and you can tell if you have hearing.
And why would i stop buying his albums or stay away from his concerts when he is my favorite front man of all time? You are literally arguing with a straw man because i have never once said that i dont like him or dont want to invest in his endeavors.... i was just pointing out that he cant sing like he used to and all of you fanboys start freaking out which i find rather amusing.
The bottom line is i am vindicated and none of you would admit that he cant sing like he used to unless it came straight from the horses mouth...and it did and that brings me joy.

I've been reading your posts for the last two pages...fucking hilarious man.
I don't really disagree with any of it. The guy can't sing as well as he used to or with as much passion, but in my opinion he still sounds amazing when he sings an octave lower or at mid-range.
Still my favorite front man and singer of all time, but the guy is old...I just wish I could have seen them from 1990-2001. Oh well, at least I got Wings and the ending of Vicarious when I saw them live in 07.
Worthy note:
Have you checked out the video of them doing The Pot in C? Actually sounds pretty good in my opinion. He even manages to pull off a scream at the end.
