BJ headlining Greenbrier Classics
 

I would have preferred Richie to be busy on his own ....

You know how I think about this. I'm quite angry at the moment about Jon.

A few one off shows by the band won't dictate whether or not Richie tours on his own. It's not like the band will be touring.

I just wonder WHEN Richie should tour then. May Bamboozle, July this festival, August hollidays. There is no real time for a tour.

Between those dates and there's no law he has to take a vacation in August. If he tours, it'll probably only be a few shows here and there so a few shows here and there with Bon Jovi aren't going to hinder him.

How much does Richie REALLY tour his solo albums? I don't think one show a month is going to effect the planning of a tour.

That's right. I don't think two or three shows with the band would be a problem for a probable solo tour. And I don't think his probable solo tour would be that great and long!

If Richie is busy with his solo tour, maybe Lionel Richie will play guitar?

Yes, bad joke bad joke...

Still not sure I get why they are doing any dates at all this year - seems a little pointless.
