He's like your brother only in that you sponge a living off of his fame and reputation just as you do with Jon.

The IOW is just across the water from me so I don't have to travel too far home afterwards.

I did downgrade my ticket for Manchester from DC to GA but as soon as I found out refunds were being offered I got the refund.

5 weeks tonight I think you will regret that decision

Defend Richie, defend Jon, defend your son going to ballet school. I really don't give a shit. Both sides are wrong in how they've handled this with the fans. Unprofessional, disrespectful and childish. No excuses on either part.

I don't agree in the slightest. If we are accepting that this is a personal problem that has nothing to do with the band then I think Jon has handled it brilliantly aside from his brother tweeting rubbish. When this happened, Jon had to consider:

1. Richie - Jon has taken abuse, nasty rumours, blame and a financial hit to respect his friends privacy.
2. Fans - he is keeping the show on the road and busting his backside in his performances from what I read. He's offering disgruntled fans a refund.
3. Employees - he's keeping the show on the road and them in work.

He hasn't gotten everything right but he's having to react to a developing and shit situation. I salute the guy, he's a leader.

Bullshit. This isn't how "leaders" handle things.

He should kick out his goddamn brother off the damn tour and sue his ass if he doesn't stop tweeting about it.

Oh gee, thanks Jon for busting your ass for me. I only paid $200 per ticket to see you. Christ, he better be busting his ass!!!!

Wow, how generous to offer refunds. Do you have any idea of the shit storm that would arise if he DIDN'T offer refunds?

They're both punks. They need to man up, realize they have fans that have supported them for 30 years when all others wrote them off, and own up to what the future of Richie's is in the band. According to these tweets, they seem to know, but don't want to share it with the rest of us.

I'm bashing both of them. The whole thing has been handled piss poorly by all parties and they should be ashamed of themselves.

Look at the start of this thread. This has been going on for over a month now. Totally unacceptable.

I'll do whatever the hell I want to do. Not sure we're you're from, but in my country, we have a thing called free speech and I'm speaking my mind on it. Don't like it, don't read it.
