As you can see I am new to this, but I have been reading these posts for the last few days (months really since buying my tickets!!) and I just wanted to reply to the post by kuba80BJ - what can i say, I could of cried when i read it. What has been written to me sums up the whole thing to perfection. It is not just Richie as a guitar player but what he is to the whole of Bon Jovi & how he & Jon provide that 'magic' between them. I have tickets to HRC & both nights in Dublin & was so excited & have been looking forward to 'June' so much since buying them but the excitement has changed now. All we can do is really hope that Richie is back where he belongs very very soon.
