and considering he's still very much alive
- how there's no reason whatsoever to go listen to Neil try to honor LB's singing when for 1/10th of the price, in intimate venue, you can go see the original himself!

I've heard Arnel Pineda speak similarly about singing Steve Perry's songs with Journey. It's the typical Replacement Singers' Rap, I guess. The difference is that Steve Perry hasn't toured in ages (since he left Journey, I believe) so going to see him perform hasn't really been an option, like it hopefully will be with LB.
I've seen FM and LB 3 or 4 times each and it's hard to say which shows I've enjoyed more. I do look forward to seeing Lindsey solo at least one more time. And, dammit, he better add "Countdown" to the set list!
And, um, what song is WMYTYTO?
