lol good answer.

And yet, that's "the story everyone is talking about"...

The story everyone is talking about -- and you saw it here first! http://bit.ly/1f2YXE3

I'm glad Phil X cleared that up, who could ever believe he would earn that little? LOL They're so full of it...

EDIT: Someone replied to that tweet by RumorFix asking: "and how do we even know to belive it or if it's true" and they replied back with: "They will have to make it public very soon."

Well, of course they will. Maybe not the part about Phil's salary or the rest of the made-up bullshit, just Richie not being on tour. Which is big news by the way, it's only been going on since April. But then everyone will go: "Look! They were right, they know what they're talking about!" and assume everything else is true as well. Ahhh, yes. Let's all brace ourselves.

Got to love Phil X!!! Best tweet I saw all day it just made me laugh, LOL

Based on what I've witnessed on YouTube, it seems to me that Jon puts in more effort without Richie hence the fake smiles and moves that people complain about. I've only seen the band live once and that was without Richie, I didn't miss him 'cause I don't know any better, I didn't feel like anything was lacking but then again I don't know what the energy is like at Richie shows.

If it wasn't for Richie,Tico and the rest of the band,they wouldn't be that succesfull. Jon has to keep that in mind. Whatever the reason may be for richie's departure,they are mature enough to solve this issue. Sure the ticketsales are down,it's very normal,we've known the band for almost 30 years, and now one of the most important member has been kickt aside.The fans are very disappoited. What i'm trying to say is: Jon is BJ,Tico is BJ,Richie is BJ, Hugh,Brian and yes,even Bobby are BJ,so Jon,get off your high horse and embrace what makes the band so unique. And IF the reason for all this should be money,i would say: Aren't you rich enough by now???????? Because we,THE FANS,we gave you this life. REMEMBER THAT!!!!!!!!!

I have read this whole thread since the beginning but for some reason, post #10130 just cracked me up. Awesome.

he probably said it in a funny/tongue in cheek way BUT it also sounded a bit offensive for the band imo...1)is he making that kind of money any way???....NO. 2) is it so horrible palying for bj that these kind of money wouldnt worth it??? if rolling stones searched a back up guitarist wouldnt he accept with less money???
ok...not the most serious argument just felt a bit wrong
