With regards to Jovi - I've said in a few other threads they schould screw the GH or solo albums or a break - and go do a brand new rock album.
Richie has been lazy on previous albums but I think it's clear now that that's because of his personal issues.
He seemed on fire on the tour, and Jon is singing better than ever.
They could really do a phenomenal album right now - but I suppose they need some inspiration first.

I agree 100%
some of Ritchies solos on the last 4 albums might as well not have been there.
I think if you’re a jovi fan of say 20 years (like me) then anything after These Days is disappointing – there are a few highs on the last 4 albums but they are too few and far between – too much mediocrity.
I agree with the statement of the live songs - the new ones don’t go down to well – take twickers 1st night - we got 2 from LH which is strange as it’s the LH tour !
Im not comparing Crue to Jovi they are totally different music wise but the same in that the last 14 years they have somewhat lost their way – even Nikki Sixx has come out and said they experimented too much on the last 3 albums.
Save the experiments for box sets, bonus track or b-sides.
SWW and NJ are classic albums a must in every rock fans collection and the same is said for Crues Shout at the Devil and Dr Feelgood – SOLA (new album) can be put next to those 2 early albums and I think Jovi need another album to put next to NJ and SWW – agree that there has been too many albums in the last few years. Quality is better than Quantity.
I got the feeling that there a lot of young Jovi fans who don’t know any better and think the HAND is brilliant or that LH rocks. For us older fans (I may be wrong) but we are disappointed with the new stuff as I said before a few highs but not enough.
A few people on here would be happy with a Jovi album of burps and farts just because its Bon Jovi.
All im saying is go away, take some time out and come back with an album that will simply blow the music world away – they are capable but are they hungry enough – the crue certainly are.
