Yes I agree with everything you said. I definitely think he had a bad back at the start of the tour. It's just such a shame he needs kicking to perform like this, because despite the loss of power in his voice he is still an absolutely incredible front man, when he wants to be.

F***ed up I love it when Jon really tries and also seems to enjoy himself (obviously), but this is all truly messed up!

I think somebody was taking things for granted far too much. I'm glad he showed up, just need to see more of it.
Yeah it looks like whatever was lodged up his arse has been removed.

But I guess since it's a live stream that a shitload of people will be watching that's one massive opportunity to try and convince them/us everything's alright.

I really think this band is going to kill me someday! I love them to death, but they drive me crazy. I can just imagine them reading all this and laughing their heads off right about now if Richie really is returning soon. But, WHY don't they just something before we all go nuts.

This doesn't seem like a guy who is bored on stage and would rather just stay home to hang out with a teenager when she's not at school/with friends during his 50% time share. This is ironically the only solo he sang this tour, and the last time he performed with the band.

...than to continue with the band in support of music he doesn't really care about and where he has been underused anyway.
He didn't throw in the towel because he had little to do with the What About Now album and therefore doesn't care about supporting it. His last show they only played 3 new songs out of 22, his 2nd to last show 4 out of 26, and the show before that only 3 out of 26. Let's call a spade a spade...this is a greatest hits tour. The majority of songs they're playing are songs he had a heavy hand in.

Things are far from alright as far as Bon Jovi, as an entity are concerned. Jon may convince the masses but he will not convince the die hards. But I believe they will find a way through. The band is FAR bigger than four/five men...or two or ultimately one.....Egos! Tsk!
