Jon's problem in Hartford
 

I don't get it. Did everyone at the show not notice how pissed off Jon was? I was about 20 rows back, and the guy ws in the pissiest mood all night.

Great setlist, but I didn't have as great a time as I would have if Jon had been himself. I've been to 30 Bon Jovi shows, and I have never seen Jon in such a bad mood.

He didn't talk to the crowd. He smiled maybe 5 times the whole night. He didn't even bow with the rest of the band at the end - He just walked off stage. He didn't move much during the show.

I'm sorry - I know I'll get crap for this, but it has to be said. I'm as big a Bon Jovi fan as anyone, and I'll be at Giants both nights. Hey Jon, things don't always go perfect, but damn - Suck it up bro. For $85 a ticket, deal with the bad stuff, and be happy to be there - Or don't be there.

It was sad for me. Last night was the first time in 18 years of being a Bon Jovi fan that I was disappointed in Jon. I hope whatever his problem is he solves before Giants.

two nights in a row. something's getting to him.

Did any of you catch the post on BS about Jon telling someone F.You when she was holding sign up that said, I want to dance with Richie. Then Jon flipped her off.

Richie of course liked the sign.

Anyhow, of course the post is gone.

didn't read that! jesus, hope we don't get another 'burnt out on each other' situation!

That does sound out of character for Jon, maybe theres something going on behind the scenes. I would be very surprised if he were like that for Giants though, im sure he'll be up for those shows 110%

I really hope I'm wrong but maybe he had
some bad new before goin on stage that put his down.

He's made of flesh and bones...sometimes you just can't smile.

Id find like highloy unlikely after all the praise he's heaped on Richie this tour. I read over at backstage that Jon was sick for the show b4 last nights, so maybe he's still recovering from that.

yeah but to tell a fan to F.You because of a sign..that I read she has taken to several shows. That is out of character for him..at least from I can tell during a concert. Something is up, but we are not privvy to it. Let's hope whatever it is, he gets it straightened out.

Time will tell.
It's not Richie. In fact, someone mentioned at Cinci -Jon was in a mood, when Richie walked over and told him a joke and made him laugh. So no, it's not Richie.

Well we were in the 4th row so I could see Jon pretty well and I didn't notice any signs of a bad mood. :? In fact, he seemed to be in a better mood than several other times I've seen them. You say he only smiled 5 times - I saw a lot more than that. Also, it was the first time I have seen him point out song requests on signs and then actually play them.

And about the f*** you incident... he wasn't pissed off! When he saw the sign he flipped her off and mouthed the words f.uck you and then LAUGHED. It was done jokingly!

The way Jon and Richie have been interacting the past few years, you'd think they were in love. LOL

That was a JOKE.

I doubt there's any major tension between them.

By the way, Jon flipped off my friend Colleen before at a show. But then he grinned at her afterward, so she knew he was joking. She still carries on about it.
