Seems to me that lately there are threads about the wrongness of seeing the band as eye candy. Some very rude references to all these women being fat bored housewives dreaming of Jon, salavating over Richie etc....

I say what's wrong with eye candy?

First off, no one I know and I have several serious BJ fan buddies, pays $100 a ticket to go look at Jon's butt or his abs, or at Richies chest. Nope first and foremost we all go to hear and see the songs we love played live. That doesn't however stop me from enjoying the scenery while I'm at it!!!

Jon is a very good looking man, who works hard on his body and has the results to show for it. Why shouldn't I appreciate it???

Richie has taken up the ole' workout regime it seems, he looks great am I not allowed to think and say so???

What I think is funny is that no one says a word when someone (no Gender here) says thet Jlo has a great ass, Mariah Carey has legs for days, Beyonce is the hottest black chick on the planet, or that pam anderson has great boobs (she should, they have been rebuilt at least three times) or Jessica Simpson looks amazing in her daisy dukes. But let a woman appreciate the BJ guys for their physical appearance, say Jon is hot or Richie is sexy and suddenly you are a bored, fat, undersexed housewife that has the IQ of a throwrug?? Or isn't a true fan???

I just don't get it, I for one am perfectly capable of multitasking: I can check out Richies guitar playing, see how Jons voice is sounding, listen to how tight the band is playing, manage to remember most of the setlist and still very much enjoy Jon's hip swivels, laugh at his so-called dancing, love the pouty face and yes even enjoy the sweat running down Richies very well chisled chest.
I say there is nothing wrong with eye candy. FYI- the band enjoys it Jon and Richie were making comments about the quality of their eye candy Someone will correct me if I'm wrong, in Minneapolis, or in Omaha I belive.
