Not Old - Just Older!
This was my 3rd time seeing the guys on this tour. I had no idea about Richie's divorce news until the next day and I don't think he revealed by his performance any hint of what he must have been going through. I don't think Jon looked tired. During "Blaze of Glory" and "Bed of Roses", I was lucky enough to be standing right behind him! When he turned around to look at us, he looked absolutely triumphant. I have never been that close to Jon before and I didn't see any signs of fatigue as he smiled at us and grabbed as many fans' hands as he could. Considering the sad news @ Ritchie's divorce and Jon's not feeling well, I thought the show was AWESOME! I was at the MCI Center for the December show and thought this one was better! These guys sounded amazing and I appreciate that they gave as much as they possibly could considering the circumstances surrounding their personal lives on this particular night. For my husband and I - It was a special night to remember. Keep rocking guys - I'm the same age as Jon and will continue to turn out to their shows as long as they do!!
