But Richie. I noticed immediately that when he came out he was not very into this show AT ALL. HE was not smiling alot, he did not interact with Jon much, he would play,take two steps to the right to do his solos, then go right back to his spot. He didn't move around at all and really wasn't interacting all that much with the crowd.

He didn't yell Look Out during Bad Name at that part he always does. he didn't yell Let's ride during Wanted. He didn't sing backup on BTBMB and even on my favorite song Blood on Blood he usually echos Jon with the "be right by your side" and he didn't do that either.

He was definitely either having an off night or something...

The reason I ask is because I have read more than one review at different shows that have said that Richie has been "off" or not as into it as usual.

I know I read in Boston that there was some tension between Richie and Jon that night due to the setlist... but i am wondering if something else is going on...

And yes I know there is a whole thread on Richie and Heather and their supposed marriage trouble but Richie almost seemed kind of down at my show.. I was wondering OMG could it be true??

Just curious what those of you who have been to other shows have thought of Richie's performances?

Also I thought Richie looked very thin.. what is going on with him? I know it all just specualtion and who knows maybe tonite I will read the Montreal thread and see that Richie was on fire... I hope so...

While I love the band I must say Richie is BY FAR My favorite band member and I was a tad disappointed he wasn't really his usual rocking self...

So what do you guys think? Comments and insights please ( but only if you have seen them on THIS tour) thanks!!!

He is not into it. When I saw him, he didn't do his Tourette thing during Wanted DOA. But I think it's the fault of the posters in jovitalk who doesn't like his Tourette thing before the solo.

He's on a short leash now... Bobby is on the wings waiting to replace him. :P

Not a chance in hell - Bobby is a boring guitarist - he's competent (most of the time) but that's all.

Richie seems to be back to his old self again.. in Buffalo he was COMPLETELY INTO the show... i couldn't take my eyes off of him.... whatever was up with him before the holidays he is over now

I was hoping i could say that and now honestly I can...

He's back.. long live the King of Swing

I don't have the CDs to hand so just out of interest ... does Bobby play on Jon's solo albums, or am I making that up?

Not sure if he plays on them, but he did tour with him during the few Destination Anywhere shows. At least the one I saw.

Saying Bobby is boring is the understatement of the year. He makes Hugh look like the energizer bunny.. and that's saying something..
