As long as they steer away from the style of writing they had with Crush and Bounce. Though most of the material they wrote together is the most like the Bon Jovi we were left with in 1996...they still seem restrained and forcefully simplified in some sections. I think if they really let loose we'll see the caliber of writing we came to expect.

As for the "End is Near" rumors....other than for amusement..no one should have taken that "news" bit seriously. We'd hear it from the source before we'd hear it from a tabloid or any other magazine.
