Only in the United States.
Richie knows that his solo album will never be a bestseller, but he needed to share that record, make the promotion like many other musicians belonging to great rock bands (example, Joe Perry), although never achieve hits in the charts.
It is important that a musician can express themselves individually.
Taylor Hawkins (drummer of Foo Fighters) is promoting his solo album.
-Louise (First Single)
-Not Bad Luck on Jimmy Kimmel Live (American late-night show)
His solo album is not a success. So what?
---------------------------------
-Every Road (First Single)
-Seven Years on Craig Ferguson Show (Live late-night)
Perhaps Richie will not fill "arenas", but clubs can fill itself, at least in Europe and possibly Japan. Being in the charts is not the most important, fill a football stadium not always have to be better than a club of 200 people.
