I'm not saying nobody buys the albums but the fact is most people buy the "Greatest Hits" and have no interest in a new Bon Jovi single, which is clearly seen in there current place on radio. My family's reaction to new Jovi is a wide enough opinion among people when it comes to new Jovi material. |

Not only that, Wasting Light was as successful as their previous records. |

I always wondered, they keep making these decent or not-so-decent albums since Bounce, and their sales have been more or less the same, minus industry trends. The Circle and WAN didnt have a successful single, so they sold on the strength of their name. If Jon just stopped chasing these fads, in my opinion they could really nail it. A really great Bon Jovi album would sell at least as WAN, and would be more relevant and would add to the legacy. And its not like they dont have it in them. At least thats what I believe. I know this is off topic, but hey :rolleyes: It's just that if there is one thing more pathetic than non critical dull pop hit single or album, it's the unsuccessful wannabe version of it... |

OK heres my humble ranting/thoughts on the Richie situation.......I m not going to fuel the fire with rumours or more bullshit, or even make light hearted banter, I just want to get my thoughts out.......I personally am pretty gutted about what has happened, I know it sounds harsh and horrible to say but I hope it is Richies personal business that needs sorting and not a rift,sacking or quitting of the band. Like the vast majority of you, I live, breath and am inspired by the band and their music (most of it anyway) and I will hold my hands up as high as they go and proudly say I like WAN. in fact I do think WATER is a welcome return to the real Bon Jovi sound. I totally believe that without Richie there can be no more BON JOVI, the whole platform is based around the JON & RICHIE combo. I am crossing everything I can cross that he will be back for the European leg, and most of me believes he will. Jon isnt daft, he knows full well that touring Europe without him will go down like a lead balloon, and I for one, if it came to it would sell my Manchester tickets if Richie wasnt playing.
My biggest fear is that if Richie is sober and on the wagon, he doesnt have the fire inside to be the Richie Sambora part of Bon Jovi any longer hence the less than enthusiastic solo's of the past 2/3 year. and he has decided to walk away for a while to asses his position and come to a decision wether to stay or go, or inded if Jon himself has given him an ultimatum.....Im drifting into rumours here :( Anyway I for one am praying we get him back on board ASAP and come june I will be witnessing something along the lines of this, what I think is back to BON JOVI, no Phil X, Bobby firmly in the background (the further the better for me) and Jon & Richie doing what they do best... |
