That was the worst example I can remember seeing, but you don't need to watch this board long to find others. It's stupid, pointless and nauseating.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but this was not a post by Seb, nor did it refer to Richie turning away from Jon.

I think you have veered dramatically off topic & need to clear the red mist in front of your eyes in order to start making sense.

There's a difference between backing off when someone is playing a guitar solo and turning your back to the singer to light your ciggie. Ånd since you've subconsciously looked at other bands, could you please enlighten me which singers from the band show this sort of behaviour as well?

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

That example doesn't begin to explain how:

If this post were by Seb or was related to his original point (wich btw was posted simply to wind ppl like you up.... After living here for a while, or having the gift of a sense of humour, you understand these things) - Then your outbursts might make sense. As they are, it makes me think you might be in a better frame of mind for reading (& answering) this question in a week or 2.

It is cold hard fact, so if you take offence to him saying things like "my dream" and "allow me to do what I want when I want" then it only shows how utterly clueless you are. Richie and the boys are free to do whatever they want, but Jon decides ultimately when it's time for Bon Jovi to do something because without him there is no band.

Grow up the **** up and learn to do something more constructive, like jumping off tall buildings and saving the rest of the world the pain of your existance.
yeah what you said....
But I have to ask this:
Didn't JON have the HIT first... Runaway....
he had it played on the air before there was even a group
named BON JOVI....
I thought I heard him say that on an interview...
then once runaway took off on radio,
he had to scramble to find a band....
so without JON there is no BON JOVI.... and would never have been Bon JOvi.. perish that thought

Right back at ya.

Like I said, a great way to make friends. And if you don't like it here, go back to Backstage.

Might be so, but without the rest of the guys it quite likely would have been the only hit for him

besides, we all know it's all about allmighty jon anyway, so why bother flaming just because once again he showed how egoistic he is...
