Yeah, the sound of the band has degenerated since the HAND tour and Richie was culpable for a big part of that. What I'm trying to say is that an awful lot of people don't notice these things. When Bobby and another keyboard player were wheeled out on the HAND tour I'm sure 50% of the crowd didn't even realise anything changed.

That's why I can't take half of these recent concert reviews seriously. Some people just go for the sing along and while that's fine I don't appreciate them ramming the "BON JOVI IS BETTER THAN EVER WITH PHIL" line down my throat.
