In the light of the reports coming out of the Michael Jackson trial, it's probably a good thing that Richie is nowhere near AEG live if he's not 100%

Whatever the issues, almost certainly they'll be tied up with lawyers for a length of time (stress in itself) even if they're resolved personally.

I think Scotland should be independent, it can support itself and you can get away from the Tories. A win win surely?

I'm all for Irn Bru too. Nothing Xenophobic about me.

I've just no interest in jumping on the hate-Jon bandwagon - but can appreciate why it comes across like I prefer one band member over the other. In reality, I'm a fan of the music. That's the be all and end all of it.

As to your other pretty needless comments - I like Irn-Bru. On the fence about independence.
I don't really have a problem with your opinion but you keep regurgitating the same things over and over again to the point that it's become a bit sickening.

Sorry, yes I meant Nikki Lund. I didn't even realise that I wrote Reed.

Yes, if you had to bet. Put your money on that because it's very likely that she is the source of most of these articles and leaks.

Well that's because the same subjects keep coming up, but feel free not to read anything that makes you want to puke. I'd hate to be the cause of anyone's projectile vomit.

Anyway after this many hundreds of pages if anyone has anything new to say, I'd love to hear it

To each his own. I think that AOTL is the worst RS solo album but it still pisses over the crap WAN cd. I think it is their worst effort beating even the horrible LH. Water is the only bearablke song. I'm with you is a snoozefest and way to slow, What's left of me is the failed attempt to recreate the magic of SIBSN, and Beautiful World sounds love PINK. I love Pink but when it is sung by her not by a 51 yr old ex rocker trying to stay "current" by singing a pink like SOng. The other tracks you did not even mention are forgettable.

SYG has more substance and depth than the whole WAN record. I still think RS 's absence is due to the music which he is not into anymore.

Aftermath has these two things that I miss on What about now: passion and sincerity. Just listen to You can only get so high. Richie lived every line from that song. Look how he performed it on stage. He was so into it.

I actually agree that Seven Years Gone is better than anything on What About Now -but Seven Years Gone is an incredible track that trumps a lot of the Bon Jovi back catalogue and all of Richie's previous solo stuff. If Aftermath had more tracks along those lines I'd probably like it better, but as it is, it's the only song that really feels like Richie to me.

If his absence is because he's "not into the music though", that isn't acceptable to me - because at most their playing a few new songs each night. How could he still not be into Wanted, or I'll Be There For You or the dozens of other amazing songs he and Jon wrote together?
