I like the last sentence though, by Bon Jovi himself: "I had two choices - pack up and go home or give you everything I got .... Richie Sambora won't be performing for a while. If there's ever a night I need you, it's tonight!"
as much as i'm confident he'll be back before the UK/EU dates, i'm not sure i'd want to see BJ without Richie. the band's becoming more of a 'Jon Bon Jovi & Friends' outfit as it is without having the other strong personality being taken away.
and the idea of a session player standing up there playing Richie's parts really grates on me; even Bobby Bandiera looks well out of place in the spotlight.
Well, you're a hard-die fan, but for once I'm in the majority of the audience who attends a concert - I'm there to hear the songs and to see Jon, I actually didn't know the name of any other band members It will be fine as long as it sounds good.
^ that is true. most of the crowds these days are just there to sit with a beer and wait for the few big hits, which i suppose is fair enough if your interest goes no further.
