Agreed. There's nothing he can do at this point. It's not like Forgiveness Street is going to save the record.

I did enjoy him agreeing about how strings should sound human over pads and listening to the new album it's very much not the case.

Actually I'm glad to hear such news. I love Aftermath Of The Lowdown and anything more is really welcome! I don't care if anyone buys the EP, I will if it gets released.

A digital EP doesn't require much investment.
(Though I agree with you that it won't make a lick of difference sales-wise)

"Forgiveness Street" would have been my favorite song on 'Aftermath', had it been included. I love the moody vibe and the vocals. I was hoping he'd do something with it, even if only diehards would notice. Artistry for artistry's sake.

I agree. I'm only comfortable when Jon spends his days off smoking on his hotel balcony.

I don't get the big deal with this honestly. They have a few weeks off from the tour after the 17th (I'm guessing doing some promo appearances as well). So doing some solo stuff on the side is no big deal.

Plus remember Aftermath is on an independent label, they might want a big of extra promo for a few more sales, especially riding on the coat tails of the BJ tour for added exposure. With anything digital the actual costs should be minimal.

So while Jon is in Vegas, Richie should reschedule the Best buy concert! Some of us are still pissed it was cancelled.

There doesn't seem to be any word at all on last night's setlist. I'm guessing I didn't miss much and it was geared towards a Vegas crowd.
