Richie Solo Album: "Aftermath Of The Lowdown" - September 18th Release Date
 

Saw this on some Bon Jovi Blog.....

It's something but really nothing:

New Richie solo album?
A little video of Richie and Nikki from a UStream chat last night has been floating around cyberspace...with rumors of a new Nikki record, a new clothing line...and a new Richie solo record!

However, the video has been removed from YouTube, and Nikki has requested on Twitter that all links to it be removed from all social media.

I was able to see it before it disappeared completely, but I think I know why it did.

Nikki did most of the talking in the video, and after her announcement about her new record and their new clothing line "NikkiRich," she really put her foot in her mouth and said there were "exciting things on the horizon for Richie too".

Richie played dumb, and Nikki turned away from the camera with her hand over her mouth to whisper to him - to "remind" him.

To be honest, Richie seemed annoyed. But I think he knew he had to perform a bit of quick damage control, so he DID then say that he was working on new songs for a future solo Richie record...but made it plain that they were working on her stuff first.

So. Since it came straight from him, I believe it. But the timeframe could be anything from a year to ten before we see anything come of it. And we still have to wait for OFFICIAL confirmation of it - since this seemed like a big slip on Nikki's part. lol

Still, it's great to know he's FINALLY considering/working on something!!

Now, Rich, did my question on Extra have any influence on this decision of yours? ;) Hehehehe! (Kidding.)

Given his history of saying he's working on stuff, I'd wait until I heard he was in the studio actually recording before I'd get too excited. Just a few years ago he was talking about working with various country artists and that never panned out.

Richie confirms he is working on a new solo record :)

Becky said it already:

Ice

Until we get an official release date, I won't believe it.

And there he goes again saying that they toured 50 countries on the Circle Tour.

I love Richie, but come on, he exaggerates anything. 50 countries...Nah. Writing with Jon on a new Bon Jovi album....that's the first of anything we've heard about that and I highly doubt it. New Richie solo album....yeah maybe but I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up being all talk. I hope that's not the case but I wont be holding my breath at all.

It's typical Richie talk , it's vague enough to not mean too much.
I hope for a solo record to come though, but I don't count on it too seriously neither.
Years ago Jon talked about being interested in doing a duo work with Richie (before This Left Feels Right turned out that way) maybe working with Jon could be that sort of thing , you never know..I cannot see the whole band back at work that soon but they will not stay away for too long neither

he said working on a solo record...a little bit, which probably means just writing some songs but not guaranteed an album release

if only the rumors were true.... im getting hyped up over nothing.

i would love for another richie solo, but i am not holding my breath
