Now is our problem believe them or not.
You want an explination of the "personal issue" ?? Why ? Why a guy has to tell that he has adictions, or in rehab, or what if is has panic attacks ? It`s personal.

Why do we need to know? I don't - I haven't invested any money into the tour and won't be doing so in truth, I am only concerned that he's OK from a fan's perspective and little else.
Do I believe Jon and the official statement? Why should I? Ask yourself this; If Richie had quit the band mid-tour would you expect the band or their management to be honest and admit to it? No, therefore any excuse they give cannot be trusted. They've given no information at all.
If it was rehab, he's been in before and people would probably just roll their eyes and say, 'here we go again.' They didn't try to hide it previously so why would they this time?
All of this cloak and dagger stuff only adds fuel to the speculation and if they cared at all about their credibility or the fans, they'd offer up at least the nature of the reason if not specifics. They aren't even giving that though, and for people who bought tickets, travel and accommodation to see the 'band', I can totally understand why there is a demand for more information.
