I mean an issue to Jon/etc. 20 years later he suddenly can't deal with Richie singing a song? It's possible I guess, just seems odd.

It's really nothing new though. He said the same today as he did a month ago.

Q: So what’s the deal with Richie not being on this tour?

A: Well. All I can tell you, without lying, is 3:30 Tuesday afternoon, I get a phone call in Calgary that Richie will not be able to perform for personal reasons and he won’t be coming. So we went to the show and I had two choices. Pack up the trucks or play. And we’ve been through this before so we played and had a replacement for him the next night. We’re very supportive of whatever he’s going through but I have yet to speak to him. That’s all I can say because I just don’t know any more.

If singing one of his solo song is the reason, then Richie needs to put his ego aside and know, they do not work. Jon gave him a chance, Richie was singing a solo song on previous tours. It went down like a lead balloon, people sat down, went to beer stands, bathroom breaks. That is why it got changed to a Bon Jovi song for him to sing.

Jon doesn't sing any solo stuff. Never any from DA or now from Stand Up Guys because they won't work. They used to sing Blaze because it was a hit song, everyone knew it but they don't now probably for the reason the audience will say why him and not Richie solo blah, blah blah.

So honestly if that is the case, then Richie needs to put that ego aside.

Maybe this time Jon's worried because he realises AOTL > WAN, and doesn't want anything to outshine the band's new stuff?

Blood Money and Santa Fe have been played at Bon Jovi shows in the past.

Why put the single from aftermath on the new album then?

Back, when we were four
Before the band got small
Before we **** it all
Back, when we played good music
I wonder where Rich' went
Let's go back and find him

Sha la la, sha la la hey, sha la la.
Sha la la, sha la la hey, sha la la.

Some bands live
Some bands die
But this company
Is still alive

Now am I cursed?
Or is this tour?
Cause the way we are
Aint the way we were

Back... When we were four
Before the band got small
Before we **** it all
Back, when we played good music
I wonder where Rich' went
Let's go back and find him

**Bobby shitty solo**

The band is cracked
The sound is torn
So much less
Meant so much more

Back... When we were four
Before the band got small
Before we **** it all
Back, when we played good music
I wonder where Rich' went
Let's go back and find him

Back... When we were four
Back... When we were four
Back... When we were four
Back... When we were four
Nice! I laughed so loud at the Bobbie comment.
