Matt has just now posted a status on Facebook where he says that it's only 8 hours till he's on the road again. I would think the same goes for the band, so if we are to expect any kind of news/picture/whatever, I guess we'll see each other in 8 hours. As I said, I'm not exactly holding my breath on the big revelation, but hey... We're back into touring mode as well, I guess.

Probably just bullshit but I noticed this tweet:

@cabbage09: "@aaron_cutler @BonJoviTalk yea i was talkin 2 some1 cant say who richie in uk and talks are goin great with both of them"

That person claims to know Richie will be in the UK, doesn't say anything about Denmark though.

According to this video report regarding the forthcoming US legs, this thread may reach 1000 pages

I think Richie quit the band and nobody is brave enough to admit it while the tour is still going on.

if richie doesnt come back for the big shows in europe i dont think he will come back at all this tour...there are very few things left that indicate richie will be back, i still hope though

Interesting. Anyone seen any of these Richie-less promo pieces?

this is the new fall tour promo...no riche

The posters in Melbourne have been changed to just have Jon :( I think Richie is gone :(

Actually, there are 2 or 3 really small glimpses of him still in there, but the focus is clearly on Jon (and a little bit of David and Tico). Still we have no idea what the intentions are - could be that they simply don't know if he'll be back and don't want to advertise him being there and have people complaining and wanting refunds again...

There's more chance of Richie joining Europe the band than actually turning up for the European shows!!!

Hahahahaa.
