You'd think it would be the exact opposite, there should have been an announcement by now, a lead single out now and tour dates, release is only a short 2 or 3 months or so away! Unless this is all just gonna be revealed and explode onto the scene all at once!

Its been slow season for way too long. John Shanks put up an instagram pic of Jon from the 80s hopefully its a sign BJ are going heavier and more 80s like on new album but I doubt it. Also with Jon doing his runaway thing mid to late March we may not hear anything til around then which sux

This slow season seems to be going on forever. I wish we had something by now.

No news is good news! Let this shit simmer! I'm all for waiting!

Let's hope that this album isn't going to have the fate of Richie's upcoming :p

Someone posted a photo of Jon's letter to the fan club. In case you can't see it, he said that the new album is, "a very personal album. It's about integrity, it's about character, it's about us. Me. You. US..."

Where was this integrity in the last 15 years?

i get what you mean but i think jon says that now more than ever they have to do some things their way and prove there is a reason for new albums and presence in the music business. bj were always pop oriented(popular) and when you are for so long in the spotlight you will certainly make some poor choices and mistakes but in general i trully believe that jon has true musical artistic integrity, he tried to evolve, he let his family and dramas out of the spotlight, tried to use his power for good, avoided the tabloids, gossips and cheap shots and with minor exceptions wrote and played the music he likes.he is no saint, he made mistakes but i think he has the right to talk about integrity...

Hopefully it isn't 'Power of we' rubbish.

Is it just me, or Jon keeps saying he is goin full circle, go back to the roots, chink on the armor, chip on the shoulder, etc for every new album?
