Call it what you want. But Jon kicking Alec out of the band after 12 years for not being a good bass player is absolute shit! Bon Jovi might be the first and only band in the history of bands to actually kick out a member after 10 years of service for "not being good enough" You listen to Jon on VH1 and believe his bullshit. Every band has a weak player and there is always someone out there better. You don't just kick a dude out. Wake Up People
And after the NJ tour, why would the biggest band in the WORLD break up? Money Money Money. Richie wanted half!!!!! Jon said FU....
Look, I know people (around Jon's age) who've played the Jersey scene with those guys. They are not fans. They are not haters. Just regular guys. They have told me some cool stories. Some I've already know and others like the one above. I could tell that they are not BSing me and really could'nt give a shit if I believed them or not anyway.
I'm sure there was some truth to Jon's Alec story but at the end of the day, Mr Loyal JBJ who doesn't like change, who uses the same song writers and producers over and over again, did not kick Alec out b/c he was concered with how the band sounded live. It took him 12 years to figure that all out?
Hummm, after 6 tours.... 50 countries ....... 60 million albums...... 10 million faces.... and 12 years, lets get rid of our average Bass Player for a better one.
