Some of this is so ridiculous...
And diehard fans know that Hugh already played on the first album.

But at least that was before Mr Bongiovi hired Desmond Child to help him sell out with turds like Livin' On A Prayer, You Give Love A Bad Name and countless others.

I wanted to be one of the only 500 fans in the world and watch them get booed out of buildings supporting metal acts, but Jon the opportunist took the advantage so he could sell out stadiums. Money is everything to him. F**k him.

Bud, time to move on from that one.

-no, of course not, I LOVE New Jersey

You're idolizing a band who you loved from 1984 to 1986?

-again no, I loved them from 1986 to 1991

But having beef with Desmond Child's inclusion?

-of course not, that's what MADE Bon Jovi

Bud, time to move on from that one.

-Bud, Buddy, Bud yeah, that's what I wanted, more honest MUSIC, not filled stadiums

Hey Captain, ease out. Why do you care so much? Why do I?

What? Hugh played on the debut. He did not co-write anything. He wrote his own bass lines, yes. That is not song writing, just like writing guitar solos is not song writing. He was not brought in to compose the songs.

Also, to say that Richie "was responsible for all the guitar riffs"... that is wrong on so many levels. Richie was NOT "the guitar guy". He contributed lyrics. He contributed vocal melodies. He ALSO wrote some guitar riffs, yes. If I Was Your Mother is most definitely his riff. Just like In & Out Of Love is Jon's.

Well, it's a discussion board. You post a letter like that it's going to get people talking and try to understand where you're coming from. Isn't that why we're all here?

Its always been your band, not "brotherhood", we all know that. But your taking it too far now.

Come on mr. Bongiovi. You got a record ready for release in May and ppl around the world are suffering because of covid-19 and would LOVE to hear your up-lifting lyrics and melodies. And yet what, you, billion dollar man decide to do?

We all are suffering from covid-19 but YOU decide you DONT WANT TO. You decide to delay the release of the album until october 2020 so you might still be able to DO STADIUMS in 2021 in support of your record and get some neat income.

You're a creedy man. I'm ashamed of you. And me. I used to adore you. Had your pictures hanging on my fall (not yours solely but the whole band). How wrong I was.

I cant believe I'm writing this but (since you wont quit) I dearly hope Sambora will never ever join the band anymore. From now on I'm staying whole heartedly on his side. Through ups and downs. Dignity, openness, emotion.
Well said!
