They have been in the business for 30 years, David is not going to tell a friend of his this information about Jon and Richie.

Unless your friend is the band themselves, Dorothea Bongiovi and anyone from management, you know nothing.

Richie didn't come out and say he wasn't going to be at Hyde Park (he even didn't say that he would love to be there either, that was a story going around) by his own will on twitter. He was at a fashion show and the reporter asked him about Hyde Park. If it wasn't that reporter, no one would have known until the band went on stage.

Phil is on stage, Richie is in LA. End of story.

Well either this means Richie isn't back, or they are planning some sort of grand entrance.....I'm starting to lose faith.

I have another thought. Remember when Richie said he would love to be at Hyde Park? As Hyde Park approached, Richie came out and said he wont be there. After all these rumors about MetLife, you would think he would come out and say he wont be at MetLife.

Get a grip.

Thank You. My choice is the truth not you, who has been lying from the beginning.

People have picked this up as a tease. As a result a lot of people think he is going to be there. His credibility has already take a massive hit, if he doesn't show after this its all gone.

Richie was never going to be in the soundcheck. Even if he doesn't return tonight, there will be a grand entrance wherever it happens.

There is also absolutely no proof that he is in New Jersey. There's no proof that the jetlag tweet had anything to do with a flight TO New Jersey. You're pulling blind theories out of thin air and beating a dead horse.

Your logic is that because lots of people are asking him if he's in New Jersey, that means he's in New Jersey. No, that just means there's a lot of delusional fans (like yourself) with blind hope.

Riddle me this: why would Phil X go on stage for a soundcheck, just to have Richie back for the show tonight?

That is the biggest question right now. And yes, there is no proof he is in New Jersey. And yeah I do have blind hope. Better than no hope I guess :(
Bottom line, there is no point in talking about this any further until they take the stage.(
