@Alex, yeah, you're probably right. What I mean is, most U2 fans will agree and admit that Bono's voice was shit during many 1997, 1998, 2000, 2001, 2005 and 2006 shows - but you won't see many Pearl Jam fans admitting that Eddie's voice is cracked nowadays. He can't hit many high notes and when he does, he goes out of tune quite soon, or just can't hold them for any long. As a singer and musician, though, I have to say this: his singing skills have actually improved (aka he sings better nowadays, modulates and controls his voice much more), but his proper voice (tone and strength) has gone downhill. Not sure if it's due to smoking, age or what, but it's a fact.
