He said the same thing about The Circle...that being said, next year will have been a pretty good break (if you want to call it that) and with as much work as they have put into it thus far, it should be good. Maybe Richie's creativity (or at least I hope) will rub off and we'll get something good. All it takes it two or three really good writing sessions.

If I could hope for anything in Bon Jovi's future, it'd be a double disc studio album. Wouldn't that be great? A Bon jovi album in the same format as the White album or Melancholy with (hopefully) the similar dynamics and experimentation.
