I will personally fight anyone who says Adam doesn't have it anymore after that Red Rock's Divine Intervention performance.
There's no doubt he's absolutely FRIED his upper register after doing 2k+ non-stop shows over 20+ years with little zero vocal preservation/after care. He can't hit those post-hardcore high note screams anymore, zero argument. BUT his lower, melodic register is still perfectly intact and I refuse to entertain any other argument. Been seeing it them for 26 years and I was in a trance when he performed Divine Intervention so beautifully in the big 2026.
Whole show was great (and a HUGE part of that goes to Fred and John being sidelined tbh), but that was really special considering he's played it acoustic less than 100 times in all these years. Incredible show and worth every bit of that awful weather.
