I'm sure they're on his side in that they wish him the best but they are not on his side being especially supportive like they were previous times. Richie isn't even mentioned at shows anymore, it's like he doesn't exist. Last time Jon dedicated Wanted to Richie at every show while he was in rehab. Not this time.

9:00 mark

This is a completely different situation then the last time. Richie was open then, he is not now. As Jon has said all along, it's Richie's place to tell.

He's obviously such a nice guy but he's clearly quite ill right there. Very sad to see.

He's doing that dry mouth thing he's been doing for the past few years or so but other than that, what about the video is so off???

He's rambling, his sentences go nowhere, his speech sounds slurred and slowed, his body movements are strange. More than looking drunk, he looks heavily medicated.

I'm sure he's back drinking and doing coke, but there's probably a whole lot of benzos and/or opioids thrown into the mix too. Dry mouth is a really common side effect of opioid and benzo use.

Could be. I've never really seen Richie as a very gifted speaker and being out of your element or uncomfortable can make someone speak without really being sure what it is they want to say. I'm being cautious here and trying not to come to any conclusions since dry mouth is also a common side effect to a lot of medications. The thing about him being ill and such. But as far as I know, he could be drinking and on cocaine every freaking day. But I agree, he does seem Weird....

Oh you are completely right, Richie has never been an eloquent speaker in public, and that was obvious in that video but something looked really off about him. As have most things of late.

Quite obviously none of us have any idea what is actually going on and everything is just speculation.
