Got a fanclub refund after emailing sparkart

Uh....Richie would still be the cock for walking out in the middle of a tour. And I can appreciate them not wanting more "bathroom break" songs - which any Richie solo song would turn into.

One would be a bad enough flight to the beer stands and bathrooms, but two would completely buzz kill the concert.

Yeah please don't make this is a personal thing. Jon not letting Richie playing songs from his album is absolutely the write move business wise. I'd love to hear it but we're the minority. You know the small small small portion that wants the rarities? Half that amount want Richie singing solo stuff.

If richie wanted to do it so much, theres nothing stopping him doing a short ''support'' slot before the full band. Infact, I saw the MeatLoaf guitarist do just that a few years back, he came out and did a 30min acoustic support slot before the main act. This would make everybody happy surely?

All this proves nothing. Jon also said he wanted to play on the tour "Not Running" and "Old Habits".

I think is problem health, and has absolutely nothing to do with Jon or solo songs.

Not Running+Old Habits=Kill the show.

Not Running + Old Habits = Kill myself.

This whole solo song thing doesn't fit to me. Richie sang Stranger relatively regularly from the KTF Tour through the OWN Tour (not every night, be enough) and then had a band song in that solo slot every tour since. Why would him doing a song suddenly become an issue now?

Maybe it is an issue now because not only hasn't he played "Stranger" this tour, he hasn't played anything at all from "Aftermath."
