Listened to Rarities-cd (These Days times). Sounded good but within these conditions felt a bit bad afterwards. Heaven help us all…
I hope they end the tour without adding any more dates. Then they should take whatever the time is needed to forget this mess, concentrate on other things than Bon Jovi and all four of them get their sh*t together (especially two of them).
Richie could do his solo stuff, Jon run his businesses and make his own solo album – so both could make independent decisions throughout the album process, learn and inspire from it and bring enthusiasm to the next album. Jon works his ass off to get his voice back to what it was few years ago (if possible, better be…) and sings a bit lower on his solo songs.
And when the time is right…
*they release an excellent non-pop album (although, as before, critics won’t admire them), and as on his solo, Jon nicely sings the new songs a bit lower than on the albums before and sounds pretty good
*they start a tour, but won’t book shows too tight so Jon’s voice can handle it and they stay eager to perform. Richie can continue his clothing adventure and take care of their tour clothing :)
*they don’t do 3 hour shows; they keep it into 1,5 hrs, 2 hrs max. It’s shorter but the tempo stays good, they push it to the limit every night - and they won’t dare to raise the ticket prices to the skies which would be possible since “re-union”. Because the change they also have to think again the set lists. People will understand how stupid it has been before to get mad because “we got only 2hrs 15 minutes and those got 2hrs 50 min”, and some old tours not so glorious start to look more shiny because the shows were so long
*Jon sings lower in concerts - not only the new songs but also some older stuff they’ve changed a bit. It disturbs people at first but since his solo and the new BJ-album they are already used to this "new sound"
*due to everything mentioned above they sound pretty damn good live again…
*…and then we will meet at the Olympic Stadium and have an awesome night, hopefully in summer 2016 or 2018 just in time to celebrate either Slippery or New Jersey…
We’ll see…
And sorry, I got a little carried away here with my thoughts/hopes :)
