Yes. There is always hope.
My only hope is that he has retired from touring to preserve his legacy! I cannot believe a true fan wants him to carry on playing in public. He isn't going to be playing any better than in 2019 and the degradation then from 2015 was horrific.
Horrific??
You yourself said that MFN and BIA were best ever, almost on par with the BIA tour.
WAM was one the best ever with the brassies.
STP was also the best ever.
SAN was still very well played, with crazy solo, at least some nights.
OUATITW and SB (ok, sadly dropped after a while) were great surprises.
New songs My Bacon Roll and Matchstick man were very touching and well played.
Yes, some essential songs (Sultans, HFB...) were missing. But what was played was well played, I enjoyed it tremendously!
MFN really got the crowd going but it was poorly played throughout the tour.
OUATITW calypso version now sounds just lazy with Mark playing a couple of licks at the end before handing over to John or Tom.
WAM was quite good but not as good as 2008 versions.
STP I really couldn't care less about.
Bacon Roll and MM were boring, especially his long story about hitch-hiking!
SAN was a nervy 8 minutes or so just hoping he'd nail it tonight.
R&J was awful. His voice is shot now on all songs but it's especially noticeable here and the final solo seems a real task for him.
Overall I thought his playing was lazy, slack, had far more mistakes than usual and also his vocal has completely gone. All that with a setlist chosen because it has far fewer solos than usual and a brass band to back him up. Yet people want him to play shows 4-5 years later!
