That part I actually understand, Have you ever came back from vacation and the thought of going back to work just breaks your heart? I have - but I don't have the cha ching to actually follow through. For me, it's been the PR around it all.

I only hope he is not influenced by his new "circle" for lack of a better word and his seeming gush for new talent if that's what you call it - he needs to remember what brought him to the dance. Bluesy, Rock, bend a note and have at it. If Richie could kick out a great album - that would be the best damage control he can do. But I know, IF is the biggest word in the dictionary.
Agreed, with me and this whole situation I went away listened to a bunch of other shit and forgave the guy lol not necessarily for ditching me in Lisbon but I spose you have to respect his choice to "spend time with his daughter"(he should never have commited to the tour in the first place). I hope after this tour the dust settles, The hitman gets better and in a few years come back with a kick ass album and tour .... Now lets see what Jon does next

Haha I still find it surprising that even Richie himself thinks the band need a break, I think a casual fan doesn't care less if Richie is there or not (granted they actually no who Richie is) I did Hyde park as well this tour, and just as Bobby ripped in to his blazing rendition of the solo from bad name a woman standing next to me yelled "Yea go Richie"..... Needless to say I wasn't best pleased and removed myself far away from her lol

For what it's worth I'm watching an interview Jon and Richie did on Howard Stern's tv show in 1992 and he's licking his lips quite a bit. It doesn't have to mean drugs.

LMAO, I would have had to say something. To mistake Bobby for Richie is not even casual - it's sad. Now, he is out there working but he's no Sambora. Wonder who she thought PhilX was?

Still not buying it. Say he was just burned out from 30 years of touring (and/or wanted to spend time with his daughter) and say that was fine, why did that have to be a secret? Why say "I had to stay in LA to take care of a personal matter", and why say "I can't say anything because nothing is resolved"?

Anyway...

Having seen the last clips of the last shows in Japan for Bon Jovi and the ones posted a while back of Richie doing Wanted and performing with Stevie Wonder I can only say, both of them suck now! They both need a break and really not come back until Richie works on his issues and Jon on his voice....
