thank u for the review.. BUT & a big BUT, hes taking money from his loyal fans to announce this & richie does it for free on twitter? whos the one in it for the cash? or music?
If JBJ just wanted the money he has many easier ways to make way more money than an intimate show at the Hard Rock in Vegas. He coulda gone to The Joint, sold 4-5000 tickets (I forget capacity) to name one.

You're implying he threw the event to "announce" that information. It was a Q&A. In no way shape or form am I defending those events as they don't need to cost that much and it's a total cash cow but throwing Jon under the tracks because Richie uses twitter and Jon doesn't is such a stretch.

I think the Richie situation is the "elephant in the room" and he had to address it, though somewhat subtly.

And expensive as these trips are, and they ARE expensive, Jon can't make much money after deducting the cost of hotel rooms, parties with food & alcohol, renting the venues for show and parties, souvenirs given away and paying staff. He is a multi-millionaire - he does NOT have to do these little trips and he certainly doesn't have to stand around smiling for photos with fans. I give him a lot of credit for doing the photo ops. Yes, we pay for them, but it is a once in a lifetime thrill - for me anyway.

That's a great set list and it sounds like it was an awesome night. Someday when I win the lottery, I'll go to one of these events. Do you have to be a fan club member to go? I can't join the damn fan club because they won't accept a PO Box as a mailing/billing address. (Idiots.)

Jon had surgery to have Bobby removed from his arse. As you can see, it was a great success.

Bobby was there along with Lorenza. They were also joined by a keyboardist.

And Becky, one person in your group has to be a fan club member.
