But following her 50 year old dad tat I've also never met is perfectly fine? I can follow whoever the **** I want and yes there is 4 years difference my parents have 4 years between them is that immoral?

Stay on topic. Yes, you "can follow whoever the ****" you want but don't be surprised if other people call this creepy. It actually is.

Phil, Jon, Tico and David will kick arse in UK.

Her dad's a well known musician. She's a 15 year old girl who clearly uses her social networking accounts just like other teenage girls. Her tweets are about her friends, school etc. not revolving around her dad. It's a bit weird how much you've read into what she's said. The age difference is irrelevant.

Because that's not inflammatory...

I think it will get sorted eventually but the damage for a lot of people is done. I don't think we will ever hear the truth but what i do hope is that they are both writing at the moment i think some killer material could come out of this.

It's even more creepy now that you've let us in on the parallel you see between your folks and you and Ava... Reminds me of the time a colleague said he couldn't wait for Miley Cyrus' 16th so that he "could finally just say it". Thankfully never found out what "it" was.

Seriously though, and this isn't aimed just at you, but anyone who follows her- why? Why does anyone on here follow Ava Sambora? Yes, you can follow whoever you like on Twitter, but I'm asking because I'm genuinely interested in the reasoning behind it. We follow her dad because we're fans of him, his work. He is/was a hero to some. I can see a valid reason for following him. Why Ava though?

If all this had happened while the band wasn't on tour, well, first of all we probably wouldn't know about it. Second, they would have had time and space to work it out. And third, we wouldn't be so directly involved. It feels like we're fighting against time, wishing our show was a little later on so that chances of Richie being back by then would be higher. Who the hell on this planet wishes the concert of their favorite artist could be further away in time rather than closer? It's a mess and it's screwing with our heads. I'll never say farewell to Bon Jovi, because they mean the world to me, and I still hope and wish for them to get back to when they were beautiful. But I think I can relate to the level of frustration.

I get the frustration also, I'm not belittling anyone's feelings about this, I just feel bad for anyone going to a concert and not being able to work up some tiny bit of enjoyment from it. I hope Beaky's pleasantly surprised and ends up being happy he went.

No comparison and you know it.

At this stage I really can't agree more. I don't even care what the reasons are anymore - if it was health, family, something MAJOR - I'd at least expect some sort of statement or at least a damn freakin' apology to his fans by now.

The rest are being professionals so unlike Beaky, I just can't be done with them. Besides I still enjoy their music (that's not having blinders on, that's just happening to like most Bon Jovi music just like I'm sure some of the others on here listen to and enjoy bands I can't stand.)- even if it was an argument or a fall-out that Richie chose to leave - his I'm doing ****ing great sort of sealed it all for me.
