Yeah from the stage. a very loud announcement followed by a very loud "Booooooo"

From what? It's the first show after a break. Maybe a death in the family? Read they're donating $100k to homeless shelters in the area to make up for it.

No. ****ing. Way.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! Not again! ****
What the **** Richie? The week before my shows? Really?
This sucks.
Never let Richie have a few weeks by himself. Now my shows are going to suck.

Oh man...I can't believe that it's happening again...

It'll be just this one or the whole leg???

I know we don't know what's going on, but it seems a bit weird that this has only been announced at show time....

It's almost like he turned up too drunk to play and JBJ told him to go home.

They are. guard next to me said show in 2 min. wow. well.... Ill try to enjoy myself.

Maybe JBJ will work all that much harder to compensate.

Maybe it is an unexpected family emergency of some kind...but if it's a relapse, wasn't it after a break from the band like this in the last tour where, just as things were gearing up again, that he went to rehab? If so, it looks like a repeat of the same pattern.

The last tweet from Richie was about six hours ago...totally normal.

I just can't believe that it's happening again. And the worst part is that we won't have any official information from Bon Jovi.

Jon on lead.......

meaning that whatever has happened has just happened.

If he's out for the whole leg, then you would think they might try and get Phil X in to cover the other dates.
