No you're not am with you on that:D

Glad I'm not alone lol--plus, I can't help but think that the most ardent Richie fans who want him to leave Bon Jovi are also the ones who think Jon is the devil incarnate. They've created 'characters' in their heads that say more about their imaginative abilities than (what I presume) to be reality imo.

All Richie fans want him back.

I am going with that assumption. :) It just would be nice to know either way so I don't have to hope he will show. I was very upset when Richie cancelled his solo show...and I am really neither a Jon or Richie fan, I'm a Bon Jovi fan. I saw Phil last tour and he was very good so either way I'm sure we'll have a good time.

I totally agree with you, I don't know if you go on any of the facebook fan sites but there are times my eyes roll back in my head from some of these "grown" women:rolleyes:

You keep repeating something that is simply false. If you want people to start copying and pasting here the embarrassing messages of some so-called "Richie fans", just say so. I would gladly save myself the pain of doing that, but would do it if it's necessary.
Sure, if and once he comes back they'll support his decision. But until then, they have to pretend they hate the band, or most likely evil Jon, for a reason. Just don't ask them what that is and everything will work as planned.

Richie fans don't accept a Bon Jovi without Sambora.

Those are called "Bon Jovi fans", my dear. And you and I are two of them. Unfortunately, not all those who claim to be Bon Jovi fans actually are. You can easily spot the imposters at tough times like these.

Jon has done a new interview and the question regarding Richie naturally came up. He gave nothing new, standard answer but again, it's personal issues and Richie needs to work through them.

Q. What’s the dynamic between you and Richie Sambora now? There’s been a lot of smack talk between you two in the media.

JBJ: I have to give the same answer, because it’s a personal issue he’s working through. There was no fight. It certainly isn’t about a fight or money or anything to do with that. And his place on the plane is waiting for him when he’s worked through these issues. The dynamic certainly hasn’t changed [with him] from the perspective of me, [drummer] Tico [Torres] or [keyboard player] David [Bryan]. So once he works his way through this stuff, he’s welcome back. In the meantime, we couldn’t not go to work because of it. It’s not fair to me, it’s not fair to the band [and] it’s not fair to the crew or to the fans.

Ah I see. Sorry, I don't follow teenage girls on Twitter. It's creepy.
