The Music is the purest inspiration, surely. If that doesn't do it for you anymore, it's time to walk away. Just like Jon should've done several times - or at least done it as Jon Bon Jovi.

I agree though - it's probably unlikely that's the reason, or the sole reason.

Maybe Richie stole Jon's maracas.

NEW THEORY! #752!
Again, you say so before the tour. You're kind of assuming things here anyway. Who said Richie "wasn't called on" to do the writing. Maybe he didn't show up back then either. If the scenario is indeed one where Richie couldn't be bothered with the band anymore, I find this more likely than actually having an epiphany mid-tour. Still, it's just speculation. I may be dumb or naive, but I'm still going with the personal issues. At least it's not a shot in the dark.

I'll concede - you're right - maybe he was called on and bailed. I can't back up what I said

Are we REALLY still in "we know nothing" territory, LOL. It's like a bad dream!

And SemiGoodLooking (like the name - subtle, humble, but piques my interest!) - I had no intention of X seeing what I said. That was just a way of me phrasing my thoughts on him.
I'll start addressing myself in the third person next... :/

I would just like to add that there were eight copies of 'Aftermath' sold; I bought the sole CD in Minnesota at the mall. xD

Everybody's been dragging this thing tirelessly for weeks and I actually wanted to see firsthand if the action carries some magically beneficial power, hence the abuse of it. But nope, I guess it was just people being bored!

This thread has jumped the shark so many times that not jumping the shark is now jumping the shark.
