Another aspect I noticed from the videos is his focus in his facial expressions. He looks like he's alert, and in the moment. Thats a major change from Green looking as if he was medicated, or lost. Not so much the past year, but he looks more alert in December, compared to Amsterdam in February. Mike Dodd is a mench.
Yes I agree with you and Mario.

"Fire" and contained vitality always was PG's hallmark (is that the right word?), and with the certain type of health problem he is supposed to have it's a miracle he can play like he does at the moment (by this I mean with the pressure of touring and for PG: doing the same thing night after night and so on.) I wonder what it is Mike Dodd has done? Maybe this will be shared in a volume two of the biography?

I think the weight means a lot voice-wise when you are not a natural "belter", but have a light barytone sort of voice. So for christmas: lay of the sweets and stodgy food, PG and put on your running shoes!
(Who am I to speak - I would never be able to do that myself )
