Richie's in Rehab

Oh please leave the good lucks, oh I feel so sorry for him I'm gonna cry, Oh I will not sleep untill I know he's alright, Oh **** there goes the tour I'm so sad etc for another board. He's the one drinking or doing Coke (wich I believe he's doing seeing him), he's the one who has too suffer, own fault. No matter what year he has been gone through, we all will have those years in our lives, not everyone ends up in rehab

I hope they let him go though it cold turkey all the way

Not that any of the gigs should be of any concern, but, I'm sure there's some sort of backup ready.

****ing hell, is anybody not going into rehab these days?

I'm sure he'll be fine for the London gig. Two or three weeks should be plenty for him.

I suppose the Unplugged fiasco was the tipping point then.

Best of luck Richie, just stay the hell away from any bullshit 12 step programs!

??? You don't even know any facts. You just see a guy who's gained wait and said "oh he's doing coke, I won't feel sorry for him" wow.

Good for him for trying to get better.

Yup. and his name rhymes with Smobby Shmandiera. Yee-ikes.

And his name is Bobby Bandiera!

Nearly made it!

Yeah I edited my post at the same time as youra bit, know he has been through a though year but again everybody will have such a year in their life, you & me included. We don't end up in rehab.

Of course it's good of him for trying to get better



(next to that, I just said he was doing coke, but he is doing something clearly, whatever he is doing, coke or alcohol what's the difference? not much; NO I don't feel sorry for him - as far as his alcohol/drug thingy concerned)

Wow!!! A shock, yes. But then again, not so much, after reading the perezhilton.com gossip this morning about unplugged taping. Richie's had a pretty horrible 18 months or so. I'm glad he's getting the help he needs.

Person by person basis. Who's to say if you and I had a year like that, we wouldn't be in the same position. *shrugs* Bongo nailed it. I prefer this to him dying early.
