I won't be missing Richie on this new album/tour
 

Dude hasn't had a decent guitar solo since Next 100 Years back in 2000, and everything he has laid down in the studio sounds synthesized and uninspired.

Plus, he began to slowly start turning into an old woman onstage after the HAND tour, wearing god awful costumes with bedazzles along with his desire to not give a f*** about his health when it comes to substance abuse.

Plus he sounds like a bitter old man holding a grudge like a child.

I'm done.

Moving this to the general discussion.

I don't find that solo decent. In fact, I think there are some shorter but better solos post 2000.

And by your other statement you should be done with the band, since everything jon has laid down also sounds over produced and unispired, with doctored vocals and cliched lyrics/themes.
