I agree - when I heard that they were playing 'I'd Die For You' quite frequently on tour, I was really looking forward to it, partly because I think Richie's solo in it is awesome. How gutted was I when I heard the simple one string solo from Jon played in both Glasgow and Hull.
And I thought Bobby Bandiera was better than he showed on the tour or at least his reputation would suggest so. He was handed a couple of solos to let go on and, in my opinion, he didn't fair all that much better than Jon!
Just let Richie play 'em guys! It's what we all wanna hear! I understand about the whole, 'keeping it interesting for the other band members,' and all that but if the quality of the performance is gonna suffer because of it, you just wouldn't sacrifice it would you?
