**** Bandiera.......... He's NOT part of this band !!!
The guy comes from nowhere and suddenly is playing solos and even singing !!

Hugh must be probably feeling like shit at this point......

5 guys on stage is fully enough !!

The reason why Bobby is there and why Bobby is playing guitar solos and singing is Jon want him to do so and pays him to do so.
Blame Jon, not Bobby.


I think Bobby fits Bon Jovi and the past showed that he was needed.
So maybe Jon has a reason to have an additional guitar player on tour?

I can apreciate what everyone is saying, and I agree there are two sides to this.
Bobby is a great musician of course and a long time friend of Jon's and has been there for the band when they needed him the most. But I am really not sure how I feel about him taking the spotlight. I think I would prefer him to be just a backing musician if I am honest. But maybe it's just Jon's way of saying "thank you" to him.. who knows?!! In which case, that is a really cool gesture I guess.

Bobby was great on Drift Away but I hope that Jon will be able to sing it at other shows. (Although Huey deserves a verse somewhere now if Bobby gets a whole song!)

The Puerto Rico concert ? If there was no guitar player at all and only Jon, Tico and Dave have done some acoustic stuff, the show would have been much better than it was with those crap solos by Bandiera....

From what I read on backstage Bobby sang the verses because Jon didn't know the words. Maybe someone that was there can confirm.

I think he's needed because Jon can't/doesn't want to play guitar much.

LOL! i think he's there to back up Richie. As you all know Richie has had an alechol problem and sometimes when he's on stage he will struggle. Bobby has been there to take some of the pressure off of him and to share some of the load with the solo's etc.
Makes perfect sence to me!

But from what I've seen on youtube, Jon's still playing guitar in all the songs he used too...

Or did you mean just the new stuff?
