Should the band go on without Richie?

See Puerto Rico topic

Before I go searching in the Peurto Rico topic with a zillion pages, did you only post one time or several times in that topic. And if more then once, wich one you are referring to?

Just the once, they played without him in Puerto Rico

The band WILL go on. That's why Bandiera is there. This has been Jon's masterplan all along. In a not so distant future, it will be Jon with a boom box backing him.

LMAO

Richie will come back. Although I'm so sad that they actually played a gig with out him... Richie is getting help. It's better than him going on with the band drinking and hiding all his pain... He's getting help and he's going to start from new.

We love you Richie! <33

Rich can cope with all that country crap even if he ain't so well, I think. Not that the new crap is really challenging, nothing but simple mid-tempo crap. So give him his drink and drag him on tour.

Waiting then. Sure, they shouldn't do a single gig without Rich. At least not under the name of Bon Jovi. I do think that even if Rich ain't the best player in the world, he's 1) familiar with everything 2) suitable 3) adjustable. Meaning, when Jon sings like crap, Rich can and often manages to save some moments. And when setlist turns to crap (mid-tempo, country, all that crap) Rich is the only person in the band who is able to throw in occasional bits of rock. IMO.

LMAO.... it's funny 'cuz it's true... Jon has gone to "country" on us. Richie's the only one who puts that missing spice of rock into everything.

God we miss you Richie. Get better! <3

Your gimmick is getting old..

oh, i'm soooo sorry. and i should post the way u would like because...?

Because he is a new-gen fan
