And like Becky said, doing collaborations will introduce him to new audiences as well. If Slash can do it...

Slash's career took off with Velvet Revolver, his image products Guitar Hero "videogame" has released the final stardom in this last decade. And his album "SLASH 2010" benefited with great collaborations. Slash is in a different league, but still, he can not fill stadiums or Arenas. In actuality play Rather pavilions and halls of 5000 people, and still playing early time in festivals.
I think Richie can aspire to a modest but secure public. Damn, his friends Heaven & Earth do, still live music. Why Richie not be able?
Ideally, it would be an album of Bon Jovi every 5 years. At each break, Richie could take a solo album, and build a modest solo career. But Jon has to agree, and must make room on the schedule.
