We know that nobody canīt replace Richie, but give some understanding for Bobby. I think this man is really trying hard to do his job the best as possible.
Donīt you think?

For some of the fans, that just doesn't cut it. They don't want to see their favorite solos play with any less virtuosity or intensity. They don't want to see Bon Jovi without Richie for the simple fact that it ain't Bon Jovi without Richie.

The PR show was an anomalie, the UK crowd will never go for it.

Maybe Eric Clapton, Brian May, Jeff Beck etc. These guys have all had tough times too, just think back to Clapton losing his son.

It would certinaly make the gig a one off. I for one do not want Bobby just standing in and doing his best, for me that is not good enough.

What do you think?
How should this work? Beside that these guitar players probably are very expensive they don't know the songs and for sure couldn't play them without rehearsals and when should they rehears?

Bobby doesn't just stand in, he is there anyway. With our without Richie. And Bobby knows the songs, he doesn't need to rehears.

Really? I'm pretty sure Richie played it at the concert I was at.
