Richie live in Berlin - Huxleys 22.06.14

I have never thought so. To me he is no different from some of the regular posters in that I know what they are going to say before I read their posts. Your points may be valid but I like the passion shown on this forum regardless of viewpoints (as long as it doesn't resort to name-calling and bullying amongst posters). I also have a lot of admiration for anyone who is trying to communicate in foreign language. I enjoy the fact that Bon Jovi has travelled the world for 30 years and therefor has a diverse audience. Kudos for Doc McGhee for pushing them on those punishing back to back tours which almost broke up the band but gave them their superstardom.

Here's my review of the show:

I came to Huxley's 5min before the doors were opening. The line was really not working cause when the doors opened everybody just rushed in. Including me. Got a great spot close to the stage. I thought there will be no supporting act so when they came on stage I went for beer. Finally Richie came on the stage. Song for You was OK, Richie sang it well but let's face it, it's no opener. Burn the Candle Down was pretty weak. Last time in Berlin it was much better. Lack of energy or something. Nowadays was much better. Lay Your Hands on Me was as bad as I thought after seeing videos in YouTube. Tempo of the song was too slow and it came out very lame. Stranger was as good as always. Rosie was nice to hear but the version Richie did was beyond awful. After that I kinda loose interest in the show. Richie forgot lot of lyrics and did the same mistakes like always.

The show was't solid like in 2012. There was not a 1% of this blues man I saw on stage last time. The band played well but I liked Sterling more in the drums and this black guy (don't know the name) on the guitar who were there last time. They both brought some soul and blues to the show which wasn't there this time. It was just straight up rock show with a clumsy Richie who looked like a hobo. Also the setlist was weird for me. Wasn't solid either. I don't get the role of Lean in Me on the set. It it just not fitting in the set.

Nothing spectacular in the show. Richie don't give a shit about the music. He doesn't respect the audience. He doesn't think it's important to practice. He thinks the audience is happy just to see him, no matter what he is doing on stage. The difference between Jon and Richie is that Jon can actually read that damn prompter!

Same here, Rolo, I too like you. No idea what you actually try to say most of the times, but hell, you're photoshop shit used to be hilarious. And you come across like you're on amphetamines most of the time so all good! Don't worry too much!

I like Rolo too. One of my favourite posters for a whole host of reasons. Just a little misguided at times when it comes to Sambora.

I wasn't implying that I dislike the guy. He's just borderline baiting all the time when it comes to RS.
