if this is the same "Agreement" that Richie signed until WAN
he obviously wasn't doing what it says...

oh baby!!!


NOTHING NEW.

I'm not sure Richie had that same agreement, certainly not until WAN, He always wrote with other people, did solo albums and songs for soundtracks etc, so unless he got Jon's permission everytime, which I doubt, I can't see it.

yeah... I guess "certain" musicians have some privileges...
-_-

This contract was for three years, wasn't it? I forget the exact lingo but it's possible it was changed before signed. I can think of a few projects Dave was involved with in that time period that wasn't band related.

yeah, 3 years

April 24, 1991: "Mr. David Bryan. Please sign each copy of the agreement. Inasmuch as our client (JBJ) has not yet had an opportunity to review the enclosure, I must accordingly reserve the right to comment and make changes."

April 30, 1991: "Mr. David Bryan. We have been advised that the agreement previously transmitted to you, does not accurately reflect the parties' understanding. Accordingly, the agreement will be revises in the near future and we will be in touch at that time. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding."

So it changed for better or for worse?? >_< lol

Yeah, maybe you guys can help me out with something that's been bugging me for a while. Do any of you remember an interview with Jon, not too long after Richie left, where he said something like, "Richie didn't have a contract" or "there was no contract"? I think it may have been around the first time he said that "being in a rock band isn't a life sentence."


And in the April 10, 1995 edition of New York Magazine, I read this statement:

Has anybody here heard anything about a distinction like that before?

Richie would have to be really special to not have a contract... where specifically says he "shall appear at all such rehearsals and..."

Did he really miss all that many rehearsals or is this just based on that one Radio 2 interview? Just curious...

For almost 30 years Jon said in interviews that this band doesn't rehearse so Richie can't have missed too many
