I've seen one show without Richie. You will see why I only saw one after you see yours. |

Only fun. |

Another thread for just his pics perhaps? |
Re: Matt's instantly-deleted Tweets: This is just a guess, but I remember reading some articles about Richie's disappearance not long ago, and it appeared at least some in the media figured out who Matt was and that he could be a good source, and the articles quoted his Twitter account. Maybe he just didn't want to stir up the rumor mill in the press again, so he deleted the Tweets.

Seriously though the pictures are the reason I still visit this thread. Rolo's contributions have been among some of the best this board has seen the last couple of months and putting them in a different thread defeats the purpose considering how he's responding to things said in here. Salaam Aleikum, Sebastiaan |

watching Richie play Munich last year on solo, he seemed really into it!! some really good songs and solos, certainly would liven up the current set lists!!

So far...
Jon: "Well. All I can tell you, without lying, is 3:30 Tuesday afternoon, I get a phone call in Calgary that Richie will not be able to perform for personal reasons and he won’t be coming. So we went to the show and I had two choices. Pack up the trucks or play. And we’ve been through this before so we played and had a replacement for him the next night. We’re very supportive of whatever he’s going through but I have yet to speak to him. That’s all I can say because I just don’t know any more." "Ok, well! All I can say is that, honest to God, it's a personal matter, but we love him very much and he's absolutely still a member of the band." "He has not been fired from the band, he is not ill, he's got some personal stuff that he's gotta deal with and I can't comment any further and it's not me being elusive, but it's for him to answer any further than that. We did not have a row, but we go on and he is always gonna be welcome as long as he's up for it." "To keep addressing the Richie thing, and it's very difficult for us because, in truth, it's almost to the point... you've gotta ask him. He didn't show up, that's all that happened. He didn't get fired, we didn't have a fight. We've been through this before. And when he works through his personal issues, then he can talk about what date, if at all, he chooses to come back. We love him, we miss him, it's different but it's still just as good, and we're fortunate that the guy that filled in for him last time that he had issues was available, so the shows have not suffered one bit." Tico: "Richie's been a big part of our band, and so its difficult sometimes in life, everybody has personal lives, and you have to give people space, we'll continue on as a band, we miss him, and before, whatever it's worth, it's important to have your own life." Richie: "I'm doing ****ing great. This is a private matter but please know I love the band and you fans!" "Don't worry bout me... I'm tip top and smilin..." "Rockbridge guitars simply the best right now....just killer!" |
He just doesn't want to play with the band right now, folks. Sounds like a Richie-problem to me. This is on him.

This thread should be renamed "The Richie Thing".

I am really starting to think that the anniversary month of his fathers death and spending time with Ava in Hawaii has made him re evaluate things in his life.

I posted this in the Munich thread, but this is very it belongs...
I did talk to Obie yesterday inside the stadium. I asked him about Richie, he said he talks to him regularly and that he will definitely be back, just right now he has sone family stuff to take care about. I said, to me it looks like Richie is enjoying being a dad right now, and Obie said that yeah, Richie is spending a lot of time with his daughter, hinting in that direction. I said that we are confused since we didn't get a definite statement from anyone, and Obie said Richie wanted to keep this issue as low as possible (paraphrasing, since I don't remember the exact words). That's what he said. Don't know if he made it up or not, but he sounded definite about his return. My friend asked if there's a chance to see Richie in Cologne and Obie said yeah. |
This response from Phil on Twitter would seem to indicate that he expects to be playing the upcoming UK shows:

I honestly believe he will be back for the UK dates. I can't see him missing Hyde Park, Isle of Wight and Slane. |
