Anyway maybe he could do the European leg for Richie coz, with any luck, he will soon be looking for work.

We went to the concert in San Jose last night, it was pretty good, it wasn't the same, but still good, Phil X did a good job.

Couple of things.

1: we were there about 3 hours early so we went to a local mall to kill some time, and when talking a young man there, he asked if we were from the area, blah blah, long story short he asked who we were seeing, and when we said Bon Jovi, his response was "Oh, I didn't even know HE was in town" this goes to show that here in the US it is all about Jon.

2: Phil X used the talk box on this stop, which made our daughter VERY happy.

3: Bobby really isn't that great.

4: Here is a video of Phil X on It's my life: http://youtu.be/R1MFxHOqHZE

It puts the ball firmly in Richie's court. Jon is out there, fulfilling commitments, he's not done anything wrong... Over to you, Richie... That is what the Ellen appearance accomplished.
I don't buy that based on past precedent. For example, once Alec was out, he was out for good. Beyond that, I don't think Jon would leave the door open like that. I'd see it more as "You're leaving? Then you're gone for good, don't let the door hit you on the ass." I could be wrong of course. (Also, I'm NOT saying that would be a good attitude for him to have.

Wow. Phil X rocks. Jon sounds like shit. He can't even hit the A note (it's downtuned from the Bb on the album) in the chorus ("Like Frankie said I DID it my way") and he nasal all the way through.

At this point I'm starting to believe that a good coverband would do a better job than "Bon Jovi".

Sounds the same way it's sounded for the past 10 years.
