If Jon and Richie reunite, I think there's potential for some really great songs considering the emotions both of them have probably felt the past 8 months. They won't write an album full of songs about people dicking other people over, but I think there could be some deep tracks. I'm hopeful.

Couldn't agree more.... The core issue is the lack of passion. This can't be faked.
Also, the key word is hopeful and I've been "hopeful" since Lost Highway.
I just don't get how a once brilliant band falls into such a funk. It almost seemed effortless for them to be great at one point
