Richie live in Berlin - Huxleys 22.06.14

I'm beginning to think Rolo might be a fake account / troll.

1. Constantly bashing Jon whenever Richie ****s up, as if that somehow negates him hero's ineptitude.
2. Constantly mentioning he didn't play Who Says.
3. Telling people who were at shows how great they were, even if he wasn't at the shows himself.
4. His English seemingly having taken the same route as Richie's guitar playing.

Yeah, but then you like everything Richie does. He could fart on that stage and you'd love it.

Sugar Daddy could be a cool song if it were by someone else like Richie. Richie with his background in drugs, young women, and his current age and condition, is just unfitting and creepy when he plays that song (and makes dirty jokes like choclady said). I'd very much prefer Who Says, but only if Jon came up on stage to sing it

Yet we were outside the O2 an all casuals were 'best show I've ever seen!'. I look back at youtube clips and don't even get it myself. Everything seemed ok. But if I had to point out one thing, it was Jon's ultra-corporate-overly-rehersed attitude that drove me nuts. And that one show it was spectacularly bad. This Richie one sounds lie the TOTAL opposite which is also NOT OK. You are Richie Sambora - be a PRO for ****'s sake.

Yet I still believe that people on this forum are harsher than other people. Even if you compare your gig to the 90% other shows that you thought were better - you can't deny the fact that your expectations from a Richie Sambora gig are totally different than from a - I don't know - Temperance Movement gig? And this will drive your perception and how you feel at the end of a concert. And while I am not defending Sambora in any way - I tend to think that walking out in the middle of a set might be something you wouldn't necessarily do if it was a different, equally bad artist.

Anyhow - off to get shitfaced! Finally some proper discussions on this forum!!

Of course people on this forum are harsher, and you're right about expectations. Still, as I said, as much as I tend to criticise Richie in recent times, I had a good time on Sunday night and didn't leave totally disappointed. It's just that I was/am still mad at him for some comments he made and that me and my friends concluded that 2012 was way better than this time.

His English has always been sketchy to be fair. I think he is a kid not a troll, hey perhaps he's Richie.

Hehe, that thought came to my mind earlier, too

I think he's somewhere from Spain, South America, or something. And judging by his behavior: yes, he's either a kid, or totally in love with Richie, who knows

Everyone hates rolo. Why? because I say what I think. Maybe I should follow that herd of goats with their motto BECAUSE WE CAN.

I love bon jovi, but I do not like that big support for Jon. I've always had great appreciation for Richie, and is beaten hard lately, perhaps with reason, but I will not give up the guy.

No one hates you (ok, at least I do not). But most of the time you seem to blindly defend Richie against criticism of any sort, even if it is justified. That's what upsets people.

Oh man, there was never a big support for Jon here. In fact, he was beaten up harder and for way longer than Richie in this forum.

Richie is ****ing up man, deal with it. "Heart" doesn't cut it. You need the basics, then you add "heart" to take a performance to another level.

Which is something that I never understood completely. After all, he is (the most important member of) Bon Jovi, like it or not

But yeah, he has his faults as well...
