@JimmyShoes_ @tracylallison @joviholic31 my apologies Tracy. I stand corrected. I guess we all get emotional about our brother

I think by mentioning that he 'loves the band' in the past, Jon's quote about 'I hate my brother', Richie's responses after every Jon interview telling everyone he's fine and Jon's total apathy towards Richie (warranted) and frustration with the situation show that this is NOT a health issue.

The whole 'when he's ready to give 100%... ' etc etc... Well, we saw Richie enjoying himself onstage. But there's more to being in a band, being on tour and promoting an album than being onstage. I think Richie wasn't putting his weight behind the new record, and was still focused on Aftermath. I think he was told that this would have to change on the next leg of the tour. I think he took an ill-advised stand and used a convenient excuse. I might get shot down for saying that, I might get proven wrong but I believe Jon called his bluff.

THIS is why Richie can't come out and say anything and this is why Jon is DARING him to. What can Richie say? 'Jon's a meanie... he wanted me to promote the band's album... '

You can say that again, 100%. Matt wouldn't dare show Jon what he tweets. Matt keeps his own tweets to himself. Someone needs to let Jon know what is going on.





Whats with his latest tweet, we all get emotional about our brother? When did Matt join the brotherhood of the band? That's Jon, Richie, Tico and David. When Jon says that line "I hate my brother and I quit" he means those three other guys in the band, no one else.

That's how I see it. Just when Richie says he can't talk, Matt is saying that his listening to his CD.

BUT...BUT I do think Richie's latest tweet about him doing good and everything fine, is a good sign and just maybe/hopefully they talked, him and Jon. Maybe someone told Jon about Richie's tweet and said, you need to talk to him ASAP. Who Knows!!
