"We've been loyal to our fans by playing every market and coming to see all the people that have been loyal to us," said guitarist Richie Sambora. "Another reason Bon Jovi is still around is that we write
songs that people can get their heads and their hearts around. You
have to evolve but you also have to be true to yourself. If Bon Jovi
ever put scratching on a record or tried to make a Pink Floyd album,
our fans would just go 'bulls--'."
I have to say that i disagree with THE man there. That sounds like the type of thing a record producer would say - i don't think richie knows fully what the fans are at the moment - because most support the band regardless giving the impression that because they like the new direction, they'd dislike anything else...? i do disagree

i hate scratches and stuff like that on albums - but as far as i'm aware the band have done that on a song like save the world - and numerous drum loops etc - and some fans have gone "bull----"

if they tried to make a pink floyd album - i'd love it because success or failure it would show the band trying to do something new, and inventive...
