Jovitalk - Bon Jovi Fan Community - No Richie on current leg of the tour

Agreed. It's nice to have something extra musically than the same old tired Jovi recipe. Lyrically I appreciate some honesty and rawness which we haven't really had from the band since 1995.... unless you count Whole Lot of Leavin'.

This is a statement that I whole-heartedly agree with :)

If he wanted the time off so desperately he could have spoken with Jon like adults to sort it out rather than ended up in the stupid situation pissing away 30 years of goodwill.

No, you are wrong. Maybe initially he tried to argument with Jon, who knows? We all know how prick Jon can be when he wants something, what happened between Richie and Jon we will only know when somebody speaks up.

But dude, put something in your mind: only because he is guitarist of a gigantic corporation, he's not in any way obligated to do this just to satisfy you or whoever wants him back to Bon Jovi, it's his life and its now or never. Richie ain't gonna live forever.

He just wants to live while he's alive.

Then why the **** co-write half an album and begin the tour. Jon didn't put a gun to his fukcing head and force him into being part of What About Now. If he didn't want any part of this from the beginning then he should have opted out. No one would have blamed him or had any ill feeling towards him. It would've been a Jon solo project (which is what it should have been). The guy has acted very unprofessionally and totally deserves all the crap that people are dishing to him.

Whatever way you spin it, this is fact:

RICHIE SAMBORA QUIT THE BON JOVI WORLD TOUR TO SELL CLOTHES WITH A TRAMP IN SHOPPING MALLS

Its plain and simple. He's mugged everyone off.

Why is so hard is to understand that people might have the right to get sick of doing the same shit for your entire life, maybe selling clothes in a suburban Mall it's all he wants to do RIGHT NOW.

If he wants to sit in his chair and get fat watching tv and eating buffalo wings he's in his right to do so. I would totally feel sorry for him, but I can understand.

I'm sorry. Are you not gettin my point? Richie can toss himself off till his heart's content if he wants....no issue with that. But dont quit a tour mid way through, let fans down and then act like its totally ok. He had a commitment to fulfill. If he doubted his commitment to the cause then he should have never agreed to the album. If you cant see this you need your head examined.

Jon is an idiot. He does not know the word respect.
