I tried to read through this whole thread. Just.. couldn't.

JBJ tonight in St. Paul did/said 2 things that caught my attention- WGIGO he did the "Richie and Jon" line and another time he said "thanks for your patience with this band".

Has he been skipping Richie's name from it prior? I noticed he STILL doesn't say Rich. If he drops Richie you're just down to Big and Jon.

Considering all the rumors of a rift etc....I just found it notable he sang that line rather than skipping or ad libbing it.

I did it. Totally worth it.

Wow!! Like reading a post on JoviTalk.

Let's just say that I'm happy I'm no longer the fan I was back in 1990, when we went through all this for the first time, concerning a possible rift between Jon and Richie etc. The rumours flying around then broke my heart pretty much exactly 23 years ago. Now, I'm able to enjoy this already legendary thread and follow the story like the soap opera it is turning into.

Can't wait for the next episode, lol. I'll always have the 80s, thank god.

This tour really could be the last one for a long time if it continues to stink up like this for much longer.

The thing is, this tour shouldn't have existed. They should have took a break and come back in mid 2014 with new album and tour.

Okay, look... Richie's at my place.

He says he's been reading Jovitalk for about 7 years now and he believes his future career rests in the hands of one man, while another JT poster is clearly perfectly placed to handle his spiritual guidance and everything away from the stage.

He wants to see Seb and Kopper, in that order and they both have to bring waffles and Red Bull or they won't get through the door.
