@6fingers6toes: @jovi_jill @TheRealSambora listen people, Richie didn't have a relapse, or drink, or b.s. Jon or the publicity team made up. He got real.

@6fingers6toes: @jovi_jill @TheRealSambora Jon has belittled Richie for too long, he got sick of it, end of story. He won't say it, I will. #hopehestayssolo

@6fingers6toes: @jovi_jill @TheRealSambora lets say I live in NJ & know some people directly involved. Literally. Its actually just Jon/ego related.

@6fingers6toes: @jovi_jill I can't reveal my source but it is someone in the band, not hearsay. Up to u 2 believe, doesn't matter 2 me.

So this guy claims his source is someone IN the band? Bold claim.

I agree. I don't know about "Happy" but he was the best I had ever seen him live... 2001. Which leads me to believe he was enjoying the work to put that much effort into his show. He carried the shows. Jon wasn't moving at all. Looked awkward during the little movement, particularly KTF. His voice wasn't great at all.

He didn't leave mid-tour because of boredom. I don't think he was anymore bored this tour than he was the last. He put effort into it and sounded great.

whoever that guys and his "source" is are full of it... if it didnt matter to him he wouldnt even say anything..just wants attention.

Just for the hell of it, I checked out that guy's feed. He's a "singer somgwriter" who continuously tweets at famous people hoping for a response so he can schill his soundcloud.

I agree bounce. Richie looks happier and more healthy then I can remember in a long time. If he had left for boredom he deserves an award for being a phenomenal actor. I've always had the feeling that Richie was more of the same person off and on stage so he's always just seemed a little easier to read, but that's probably because he took his problems every where with him on and off stage in the past. So I tend to think his emotions shown on stage are real. I could very well be wrong though.

If Richie has or is going to leave can someone move the thread with his new "song" in the New Jovi releases to "Other Bands"?


Runs for cover................

Once he's officially out of the band, every thread speaking about him should be in the "Other Bands" forum, without a doubt.

Does this sound like Phil's run with Bon Jovi is over now? Or am I reading too much into it?

@TheRealPhilX: a HUGE thanks to everyone for the awesome tweets, pic/vid posts, comments & so forth. you made my @BonJovi experience even more KICK ASS!

That definatley sounds to me like he is done .....
