I tried... Options

Today I tried listening to Shinn. I mean, I really tried. I just didn't listen to this White Discussion link. I listened to just about an entire show. Sorry, but this dude just sucks. You have to feel your music. You can't tell me he feels it. He hasn't lived those lyrics. He's just up there going through the motions/playing rock star. I am so annoyed by him right now.... I mean, his haircut even seems like a pathetic attempt to be cool, he uses the megaphone way too much, and it looks like he wears the same outfit to every show.

And before you all start getting pissed off at me, please know that I miss the old Ed so much that it hurts. "Eddie K." is horrible, embarrassing, and I can't stomach his new crap either. At least when Vince Neil left Motley Crue, Vince's solo album was freakin' awesome.

I guess my question is, how can you guys get all excited over Shinn covering Ed's songs? I WILL say that I have listened/watched Live's new songs. Those are.... okay. Maybe they should just stick to new stuff.

Help me accept Shinn singing the likes of Beauty of Gray. I don't know how y'all do it. Thanks for letting me vent.~ You have my respect.

Just watched Siren's Call and Don't Run To Wait videos.... I've seen Live with Chris 3 times (the York show, March '12, Summer land in Pittsburgh 2013 and Oct in NJ 2013) and the difference in his "fit" with CCP is palpable.
I enjoy his voice.
I don't give a flying shit about stage presence. Maybe I did once. But I'm older now and much more sensible.
I long for Ed's voice of 1990-1999 but I think it has been lost on the wind.
I liked the sound of Don't Run to Wait more than Siren's Call, but they are rough videos.
I am very much looking forward to the album. I will pass proper jusgement after many spins and much consideration.
