this is not the first time I read that ... I am worried too ...because if Richie is not into the show the shows won't turn out excellent or outstanding at the end .. my apologies to the *only Jon counts * believers .. IMO without Richie in it's gonna turn bad and Bobby won't be enough to pretend everything is ok ....

I don't know what is going on but OBVIOUSLY something is not ok .... in 2000 Richie was not in that much neither and when he is not ok he is NOT OK .. I mean it last more than a couple of shows unfortunately

fingers crossed Richie will feel better soon .....I wanna hear him sing I wanna see him have fun on stage I wanna hear his sparkling guitar LOUD ... and to be honest so far this tour doesn't sound focused on that
