Please watch this video and tell me how is this a band that is fighting? (4:00)

And many more videos especially from the Cleveland stream. Just check out how Richie stepped in to save Jon with an extended solo when Jon couldn't hit the notes on Always after 3 hours of singing his ass off.

People tend to blow things out of proportion and start imagining scenarios and then fight about them? The posts suddenly change into Jon bashing then Richie bashing then US vs European fans. Seriously?!

The dude had to take care of a personal matter that apparently he doesn't know how long is going to take. Could be his family, could be his ex-wife, could be a hemroid, could be anything!! Why do you need to know? People as well as things break down and sometimes it not really planned and you have to deal with it.

If yo want to go see the show without Richie then go and if you don't then don't! it's your choice, your decision. They were clear about refunding tickets before shows. No body owes you anything, not for telling you what the personal matter is or when Richie will be back.
