Haha, OK, definitely Richie solo then.

My question, would you like Richie to go on tour alone next year or would you rather prefer a Bon Jovi tour?(nevermind Jon touring solo but I don't really care as all I have seen by him solo was good but not outstanding whereas most of what I've seen Richie doing was just superlative)

If he's so great, why is it that 'I'll Be There For You' sung by Richie during concerts creates a massive lull in the atmosphere (at least in my experience).
I also attended a solo Richie show back when he was touring with Undiscovered Soul - it was good but not outstanding.
I'm sure a solo Jon show would be similar - the spark just isn't there solo, but put them together and that's when the magic happens.

I'd certainly go see Richie solo, Jon as well, I think both are very good alone but I prefer them together as a band. Richie doesn't seem too inclined to finish another record, nor really anxious to get out there and play so I guess I prefer he stay with the band.

For them to stay togather!

I'd go see Richie solo in a hearbeat. I'd love for him to finish his album. I'm not looking for them to go their seperate ways permanently but another Richie album and tour would make me very happy.

I'd love to see Richie solo. And I'd like if David did a tour of small theaters to do his piano stuff.

Band.

I love a couple of Richie's songs and like a few, don't like a few and am just bored by the rest. I can't make myself like his singing voice even though I do buy his CDs. His live performances don't really move me either.

The lack of attention Richie has given his much talked about, never seen solo project makes me think it's not that much of a priority to him either. Maybe Richie and Jon have outgrown the need to "prove themselves" as solo artists. They both know they're better together.

I would LOVE to see a solo show from Dave though.

So would I

With my love for piano music that would be a natural.

I think they should do solo projects...whatever that may be, just to stay fresh. Personally I would love to finally see Richie pull a new solo album together. He's been saying for a good few years now that he has enough material...But life moves on and maybe the material he had, no longer seems relavent.

Hoping he finds some time out to feel completely creative in a solo way...The last thing I would want to hear is music made because it was expected. SITT is the most amazing album I own...and live, awesome!

What would you prefer?
