I almost don't want them to perform at the RRHoF ceremony because then the whole world will know our "dirty little secret" about JBJ's voice.

Admittedly, I was a big Richie fan but moved on and accepted the new Bon Jovi once it was clear this is the new normal. I really enjoyed THINFS as an album (better than much of the last decade, IMO), but there's NO CHANCE I'm buying a ticket to any show, not because RS is absent, but because Jon can't sing and, if I'm spending that kind of cash, I want a lead singer who's able to carry the load.
