Well...
- Richie played at a fundraiser for his kid's school, so did Jon a couple of months ago (I remember posting the links)
- Richie played at charity events including horse racing, Jon played at a basketball event on TV, Tico played at a golf charity event in Florida
- Richie played with older acts at red carpet events or just attended awards ceremonies, Jon attended ceremonies where he collected non-music-related awards given to him and didn't play
- Richie hangs out and jams with other musicians old or young, famous or not, Jon hangs out with businessmen and politicians

so please explain Richie's wrongdoings according to you because I see nothing but coherence and a focus on music in Richie's recent behavior.
