heres my opinion (for what its worth) as we near the date for the Gig we are attending.....BON JOVI without Richie is like a three wheeler car (remember them) yes they function as a car but without that fourth wheel at the front its never going to perform like a proper car......When this shit kicked off i truly thought it was health/addiction problems for Richie, but as the pictures/tweets came out of Richie looking quite well it became obvious to me that indeed He and Jon were at loggerheads......looking back we all should have seen it coming, right back before The Circle when all this CEO crap surfaced for real, the lack of some decent guitar work.....even back to when the fan club became the backstage with JON Bon Jovi club......you only have to watch live appearances its clear that the dynamic duo arnt a duo anymore (hurricane sandy special was a good example Richie hardly glances at Jon).....no matter how hard Jon tries to act it out........at this moment in time I think THEY BOTH need to take the rap for this shambles, Richie for saying hes busy fuc#ing dressmaking and worse than that agreeing to tour in the first place, and Jon for overinflating his own ego so much its casued this!!!!
So as we approach "E" day (Ethiad) im expecting to see JBJ giving it his all (and I respect him for that), but without Richie its not going to be the best Gig I have seen....I may be wrong but as I have said, when the final few notes of Wanted are played and Jon is out there on his own with his rasied guitar pointing skyward, he is going to look a lonely figure....I find it (not sure of a word that describes it)"motivating when they BOTH do this little showpeice, its the same with Blood on Blood in the older days with them both at the one mike, perhaps even "Water" in the last of the Sambora gigs where the Jon & Richie thing takes over............but alas its not going to happen this time around and its THAT!!! that really pi#ses me off.....dont get me wrong I love and admire them both but FFS after what is now 28 years of being a loyal fan, being denied a true BON JOVI experience, the very experience that MADE them what they are (were) today............so right now JBJ needs to deflate that CEO attitude, let Richie get a good share of the input towards the setlist (his own songs) and some real rocking guitarwork......whilst Richie should drop his bloody sewing machine and tape measure and get back on the road where he belongs!!!!
