He had September - December to promote the shit out of his record but didn't do so. We'll never know why he refused to do radio shows and the likes, but putting the blame on Jon is silly.

Actually I have seen a radio and a TV interview with Richie on Aftermath, think they were from September 2012 or so - so he did do some promotion, though maybe not enough...

Matt finally admitted that nobody knows if Richie will be at South African and European shows:

@23866mar: "@MatthewBongiovi please Matt, tell us, will be Richie in the European tour? answer pls if you know something"

@MatthewBongiovi : "@23866mar don't have an answer. Wish I did"

Still doesn't mean he's gone in my opinion. I'll be amazed if he doesn't come back and am confident of remaining fully clothed in Slane.

I did think that Richie had done plenty of promotion in US from Sep-Dec 2012.

As far as I knew, there were dozens of radio interviews in September. He'd been performed on SeriusX twice, on Live! Good monrning America, NY classic Rock, World Cafe Philadelphia, Extra TV, Howard Stein TV and others. Obviously he couldn't do much promotion after he supposedly blew his voice in Europe...In early November, the promotion for his LA show was a priority and he made a bunch of appearance on local TV.

And there were the Bon Jovi obligations like the performance for iheartradio, 121212, the release of inside out movie and the LA show in early Dec etc...And he jammed with the violinist, played on Heaven and Earth's new record, made the charity version of I'll always walk beside you... And let's not forget that his Mum's house was flooded and he had to get her out and made arrangements to renew the house

Could he do more promotion, especially out of the States? Sure.
But he was quite busy the last year IMO.
