jon feels embarassed and betrayed, that they all blame him and noone takes responsibilities...(the part from the documentary about the central park concert show a little how jon thinks in those situations...)
we still dont know the real reason but if tico-david made them figure this out then richie would be back in no time imo...
richies latest tweet even if it was saying sth at least was a bit more truthful...i cant say sth yet thats why i m not...there is sth to be resolved and probably will be the next days -weeks...
ps...i cant stand jon playing the big boss and saying noone was fired...cause in truth he cant really fire richie, he can only destroy the band and make a jbj solo group...i am not trying to turn this around but jonis to blame as well...
ok richie left and obviously is irresponsible but jon acts like a boss allthe time, they were a gang and now they all have to make him happy...
1.bobby should be the scape goat and leave...how can jon not listen he butchers every single solo?and why should he play the solos?unacceptable imo
2.i tried to like wan but its mediocre at best...if jon wanted a solo album he should make one...someone asked him if he will make a solo album and his response was there is no need cause the albums of the band are like that...and he said that with a straight face...
3.jon may bellitle richie cause he was lazy the last years but his vocal performances are worse and should try to find a solution...
4.someone should force them to work it out cause they act like children, both of them

Don't think we can read too much into this. This is either as much as Phil knows or if Richie is returning and they don't want to announce it until after to its gig then he's been sworn to secrecy.

May be a stupid question, but apart from "Blaze of Glory" is WAN the first album where a Jon solo track was included on it ?

Imagine if Jon actually used Twitter how amazing this whole thing would be. A war of tweets.

No, it's not. Actually, Lost Highway and The Circle are the only albums since BOG that there IS NOT a single song written only by Jon. All the other albums have at least one Jon's song.

You can really find it very easily on wiki.
