Whilst the man's timing is absolutely ridiculous, perhaps this is what Jon needs to throw into light just how far the band have fallen since their glory days. If the band isn't beyond repair, positive things will come from this eventually, I'm sure.
It still sucks for the fans who've bought tickets though. :(

I agree with most of this. No-one knows exactly whats gone on and who's to blame, we prob never will. Its just been handled in the worst possible way and I can see Richie losing alot of fans over it.
Lets be honest, the real magic between them has been missing for years now, I'm talking more in the studio than anything else. I hope this whole episode might be a blessing and forces them in another direction to maybe come back together as a force again at some point.
I've said it for a while but IMO Jon needs to do a "end of NJ tour" and get rid of all the hangers on, over production, ridiculous money making schemes, Shanks and just go back to writing songs with an acoustic guitar for the love of it. Not for the love of trying to have a hit single.
