Richie has just tweeted:
"Hey guys just coming back from the jettlagged to the living..."

I guess he's back to LA...

I wonder how many fans are thinking since he's back in the states, chances are good that he might show up at a concert? Well, he might, it just won't be a Bon Jovi concert. :D

Details... ;)
I'd say those people would be delusional. Plus, he's got promotion for his fashion line to do in Japan in August. Might only be one day, but I doubt it. Also, the guy himself said maybe September is a good time. That means: if you're lucky September, otherwise later on. Surely, not before.

I'm still suspicious that all of this is because Richie wanted a red Mustang instead of a blue Buick. Now, being influentiated by Nicki Lund, for the next tour he will ask for a pink Beetle.

Richie might look pretty fly in a pink beetle and one of his pork pie hats.....and an open shirt. :p

Richie will never come back, thanks to the fans.

Jon is selling out arenas/stadiums without him. Phil and Bobby are very well received by the fans.

And Richie barely contributed to the new album. Jon can make songs with only his own ideas and that's what he wants.

What is happening and whatever happens in the future is anybody's fault but the fans. Was Richie testing us? I for one don't respond well to shit like that.

Gulp!! i'll stay out of this one lol

Again, fashion in Aug. so fuel to the "maybe Sept" they might work it out. That is when it would be work for him I guess. Seam Borg blocked me on twitter - I hit a nerve I guess - told him Nikki should stick to fashion and out of BJ business. If he wants to do fashion, so what but she makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up - and it's normally right. Afraid agendas are diff. and Richie seems to buy it right now. Really think outside influences are at work - initial "reason" probably passed and now it has escalated into something entirely different. His perceptions vs Jon's different and makes more conflict plus people whisper what they want in his ear. Breaks my heart.

While I do agree that Nikki's interjecting into the interview about Bon Jovi stuff was unnecessary, I don't think that Richie is so impressionable that he lets Nikki guide him around at her beckoning. Richie himself Tweeted that he has run the fashion line for five years, and that the fashion line is ***not*** taking him away from the band. He says he's an artist first and foremost. So, he's doing the fashion in the meantime, not because he chose it over the band because Nikki was whispering in his ear (imo).
