Tempting, but without Richie, not tempting enough. Damn I wish Jon would stop being so political and just go back to being the dude he used to be.
Doug R., my wife (who absolutely loves Bon Jovi) and I and our son attended this tour when it stopped in town last year. I agree, it just isn’t the same without Sambora. Phil X is a great guitar player, but he doesn’t have that “it” that Sambora brought to the band.
But since the arena was filled, I can only presume Sambora’s absence didn’t make any difference to all the soccer moms in attendance.
Rattle, maybe it don’t make a difference to those soccer mom’s, but it makes a big difference to my wife & I! And I hear ya, nothing against Phil X at all, but Richie isn’t just a sidekick, or just another guitar player, Richie is Bon Jovi! IMO, just as equally important as Jon himself! I gotta go, bro, have a good one, cheers!
Totally agree. They are just not the same….
Never was a big fan of Bon Jovi. That had some good some songs back in the day (“Wanted Dead or Alive” will always be my favorite), but most of their music is just too mainstream pop for me. Especially their more recent music. I give them full credit for being able to sell their music to the masses, and especially for the longevity of their career. But I wouldn’t cross the street to go to one of their shows. I own one “Best Of” release from them that I haven’t listened to in ages. Definitely not for me.
I kind of like the edge that Phil X’s guitar playing brings to the band, and I think it’s positively effecting the rest of the band live. Sambora’s contributions can’t be overstated, but he doesn’t want to do that anymore, and I think he’s earned the right to get off the Bon Jovi train for a while and do what he wants. I wonder who’s second guitar on this tour. Bobby Bandiera, Matt O’Ree, John Shanks?
