That's why I'm hoping this is just another nasty rumor.

I can't believe people are actually thinking certain rumors posted in this thread "might be true" when it's so blatantly obvious it's all made up.

Typical wife. "Do you really need another drink?" LOL. "Maybe you should take a few weeks off (from bottle)".

No wonder JBJ shagged birds with Nikki sixx in sixxs room if this is how she carried on!!

How could Jon sing those songs? How could I watch them live, knowing that they fired the man who wrote those songs, AFTER 30 YEARS!!!, because he has some personal issues that he can't get a grip on. I know it's just speculation, but to me, firing Richie would be the absolute end of Bon Jovi and I would even have a hard time listening to the classics any longer. To me, this band was not just about the music. It had a lot to do with their loyalty and friendship, their underdog attitude, the fact that they were role-models for an entire generation. Yes. The music started to suck, but everything else I still sympathised with. There is no way I could overlook all these things if Richie was to be fired.

Excellent post and I couldn't agree more. I have been a longterm fan and I hate to be maudlin but I agree about the relationship. Perhaps that is only what I read into it and Jon and Richie are NOT good friends - I have no way of really knowing. Maybe we all invest in a relationship like that because we would love to have one ourselves. Either way - let's not take this to Richie getting fired. It's not as clean cut and simple as "he fcuked up" so let's fire him. It's not "just" a job.

I never heard Jon so into a song. Best Bon Jovi performance in the past few years.
