lol, yeah ok, he may have rocked on stage, and he may be a quiet guy, but if the band gave him more publicity, then everyone would easily think better of him. Hes a million times better on bass than Alec ever was, he doesnt make any mistakes for a start - Alec did.

Thanks!

It's the Easter hol's now. All my cynical/sarcastic comments that would usually be felt by numerous people at college have to go somewhere

I think you're right....

But I'd have much sooner Bon Jovi brought in somebody who would replace Alec, and be part of the band. It's missing something..... I'm going to get bashed for making Purple references again, but after Blackmore left, he was seen as irreplacable, but Steve Mores has played himself into the band, and is as much part of the band as Paicey who was there in '68. Bon Jovi need somebody who will do Alec's part, not just playing the bass.

But yes, I think Huge does suck, he's not right for the band, and just doesn't seem to have a drop of rock and roll in him... No offence to Huge, as he is a better bass player than Alec, but the bass parts were never really hard, and he still seems like a lost boy on stage.

This is exactly what I think. See him in stage is....no words. He´s lost. you see Richie on the guitar, Tico on drums, David in the keyboards and you are proud ...but you see Hugh moving his legs from right to left, lost lost lost....

The joke of the week.
I see the video of I´ll be there for you with Alec, and HE IS A ROCKER.
I see Hugh now and he seems to be a lost boy in the neverland.

I do like Alec but I think Hugh is god because of the classy shirts and sunglasses he wears.

Was that when he was sober or drunk on stage? Alec made too many mistakes playing live, he stopped playing on any studio releases after New Jersey. He couldn't stop drinking, and often went on stage drunk. So...you would prefer someone drunk and messing up the live show but can move on stage as opposed to someone who can at least get the songs right? I'll take Hugh, thank you. I would hate to think that I was wasting my money by seeing a crappy live show.

Where did you find this out (especially the part where he didn't play any studio releases)?
