I believe Richie was sick of living in the shadow of John for all those years. For being such an essential part of the band with no real input on its direction. Ritchie was good friends with Doc McGee, and Doc gave Ritchie a voice, that he lost once John took over management. Then once the stuff with Shanks went down, he was like I’m done. See ya.

Hello, you also need to tell why Richie had problems with addictive painkillers. He broke his arm in three places and had a tour ahead of him. (the cleaning lady put an object in his way, he walked home in the dark and tripped and there was a mess) he played the whole tour on pills and that's why he had problems.

What a terrible thing to do to your star guitarist. I'm surprised he toured with them at all after that. He was right to walk away after being treated with such contempt. The only regret should be that he didn't walk away before the tour started. I've always thought Bon Jovi was never truly Bon Jovi without him. That's the equivalent of replacing Brian May and expecting his band to still be Queen and still have the Queen sound. Unique musicians really are irreplaceable.

Definitely not cool to have John Shanks play some of Richie's guitar parts on the 'What About Now' album. I get it, he wasn't showing up and they were wanting to get the record finished. But still that's a low blow. Things were obviously not good at that stage. Shanks and Sambora had worked well together it seems on the 3 previous records 'Have a nice day', 'Lost Highway' & 'The Circle' but things had obviously come to a head by 2013 and the making of that record. Too much touring & Richie had had enough. But very awesome to see them reunite again at the R&R Hall of Fame. It's not quite the same without the original band members there. Richie such a huge part of their sound.

Only two things are "legendary" about the Bon Jovi band: 1.the music they made in period 1984-2007 2. Sambora & Bon Jovi writing, playing & singing together When Sambora stepped out, he was practically pushed to step out, from Bon Jovi remained just a shadow of the band they used to be, little sparkle dust and nothing more. So, at the end, dear @BonJovi , it wasn't about the music, it wasn't about the friendship, about the solidarity, about the band mates. It was from the first day, it still is, and it will be always about you and about the money. End of story 🙄

I have been wondering why RS left the band just like that ... There must have been a very serious reason beyond RS wanting to spend more time with his daughter. Sure family matters a lot, bu it seems there was something else to RS's leaving the band. JBJ did something similar to late Alec John Such ... He called him over to his house and told him he was no longer in the band! If I remember right, JBJ was alleging that AJS was playing wrong notes or something like that. Plus, what bothered me about JBJ was that he wanted to be an actor at some point in time and he was not happy with his manager or something. He is not the greatest singer! Never been! JBJ was good as a whole band with RS, AJS, and DB! Last I watched that JBJ says he's still waiting for a call from RS to return to the band! Once you treat such a great guitar player, writer and singer as an accessory, he should never come back! For what? Moreover, RS is hell of singer, ... much much better than JBJ ever was!!! JBJ's ego needed taming. It's too late now. I'm happy RS is happy.

Interesting, I never heard about all the other issues, it was always stated that Richie wanted to spend more time with his daughter but clearly there is much more to it that was brewing over time. I guess I always thought there were possible issues yeas before as Bon Jovi has always been Jon Bon Jovi, his record deal and the band were just employees, so eventually something has to give right? But Bon Jovi as a band has not been the same since Richie left, I personally stopped buying their records, going to shows, even listening to their music full stop. It was over a long time ago.

I've been a fan since 1984. The day after Richie walked out right before they took the stage, my heart broke. Jon's mouth and attempts to shift the focus from Jon's daughter's recent OD to Heather Locklear and that old 'substance abuse' cliche really pissed me off. This proved to me it really was Bon Jovi, Inc. all along. 'The Brotherhood' my ASS. After personally experiencing Bon Jovi live in concert for 103 shows, I am disgusted with myself for not realizing what I was supporting with my hard-earned money for tickets, flights, accommodations, rental cars, fan club memberships and private exclusive trips and meet-n-greets, charity auctions, and on and on - that Bon Jovi was, and still is, a privately held corporation. I wouldn't trade my Jovi memories or the lifetime friends (and 1 sister-like) for any amount of money. There won't be another Bon Jovi, even if Rich comes back. That ship done sailed. Jon should be ashamed, but his LSD narcissism burnt that section of his brain. From here on out, all Bon Jovi mysic since Richie's departure will be performed by a group of musicians known as "A-hole and the Payroll."

All bands, once they get signed to a record label, are corporations. It’s not just Bon Jovi. And when bands reach the level of success that BJ did, they have a staff of employees. Lawyers, managers, road crew, administrative staff, some type of office/warehouse for their gear. Also payroll. I just watched an interview with Pearl Jam, where they talked about doing tours just to keep their staff paid, and the mortgage on their HQ building.

@@deejay7060 Jon told the final original guys (Rich, David, Alec and Tico) that the record label - Polydor at the time - signed HIM and ONLY him, that the contract is between HIM and the label, and that the members of 'the band' are contracted with him and NOT the label. This revelation was brought to light after Jon started shopping for a new label (ehem, bigger cut) when Polygram absorbed Polydor and he was in negotiations with Island Records (before Island became Island Def Jam). JBJ had never pulled the I card - it was WE, US, the Brotherhood - before then. Shortly thereafter, JBJ Inc. took over management from McGee Entertainment (Doc was in legal hot water thanks to his shady dealings and using the equipment of the bands he repped at the time as drug pack mules, but I digress...) more money incoming from Island but no increase to 'the band'. He became a tyrant. Don't take a stranger on the interwebs' word for it even though I was around and was aware of the unease and discontent in the Fab Five. No one threatened to quit - because no one dared to stand up to the tiny tyrant. The band's 'break' when JBJ made the Young Guns II soundtrack and Destination Anywhere was his attempts to 'allow' his guys to breathe, stretch their wings, try other things (David with Broadway music, Tico with sculpturing and painting, Alec with his love of horses and motorcycles, and Rich with making his own music and writing for other acts and genres). I know many people who have been contractors working for the musical side of Bon Jovi, and many became employees of JBJ Inc, complete with 401K and health insurance plans. The Soul Kitchens and the Arena Football team/staff and underwriting for Habitat for Humanity also has employees - all off the sweat from the backs of the Fab Five funneled through the lead singer. And that's great! He can do whatever he wants with his money. But it wasn't all him. It took all five. I find it terribly sad though, that Rich has to garner his 'increase in pay' via songwriting credits/royalties that he shares with JBJ, and tolerated JBJ for as long as he could knowing he had changed into the megalomanic everyone is afraid to publicly acknowledge. Knowing there was not going to be an increase in dividends, Jon brings in another songwriter and musician and shoves it in Richie's face? I am pissed FOR Rich, and we all know how hot Sambora got (to the point he walked away). I'm not naive, and I know how the sausage is made - seen it, done it first hand. I'm just really, truly upset (triggered? ugh) that something so earthy and sincere and energetic and caring and mesmerizing and eexplosive as the whole Bon Jovi experience was, that it became so ugly and jaded and me Me ME-centric turned out to have been an unbearable lie-filled shit show.

Def Leppard's 1983 release Pyromania was a smash hit! They were on top of the world. Then Drummer Rick Allen lost his arm in a car accident. Rather than go on without him,and at the risk of fading into obscurity after many years of hard work achieving massive success,the band waited 4 years (an eternity in the music biz) for Rick to heal and to develop a new technique and innovative style of playing his drums. Their follow-up album, Hysteria in 1987 was an instant success,eventually reaching #1 on the Billboard 200 and U.K. album charts. point being,the band put their love and loyalty of a brother ahead of themselves and their ambitions,and It paid off in astronomical fashion. Hindsight being 20/20. Can't help but wonder,if his Bon Jovi bandmates chose to pull back a bit and support Richie through his tough times,after 30 years in the band,and at that point in their careers where they'd pretty much done it all,and then some may have made for a stronger,tighter,much more cohesive unit in the studio and on the road,while maintaining the core integrity of the band. Phil X is incredible! A cool AF,hilarious,multi-faceted monster musician who can play,sing and perform with,and/or better than the best of them IMO. Richie Sambora's indispensable contribution to the Bon Jovi sound and live performance will never be eclipsed.

My son and I were there the night Richie didn’t show up, Calgary, April 2, 2013. It was a very odd feeling when the preshow announcement came on telling the crowd he was ‘unable to perform’ that night. You knew something wasn’t right. Bobby Bandiera and Jon worked their asses off to cover guitar parts.

They broke big when I was a senior in HS, and super popular in those days. The last 20 years the direction their music has gone is just not for me. Less and less edgy guitar parts. Maybe Richie feels the same way, who knows. Richie has said over and over he needed to spend more time with his daughter as being the reason he left, fair enough. But I think its more than that. His substance abuse issues probably play a part, along with the changing music. I haven't listened to any of their albums in those 20 years I mentioned. The bits and pieces I have heard clips of are just not that great. I feel if JBJ wasn't JBJ, none of the recent albums would have been made and sold to many people. God bless those early songs from the 1st 4 albums, brings back a lot of happy memories when I hear them on the radio. And they were so good live mid to late 80's and early 90's!

That's the same way I feel about them. The proof of Jon's greed for money is docuseries. As I have been a fan for 35 years, I certainly deserve to watch that project free of charge. So the way he wants to say thank you is a pity and shameful.

Apologise to the fans? None of them feel terrible about the fans. They are all about the money; the band Bon Jovi Dont gives a toss about the real fans by charging exorbitant prices for platinum-tier packages and seats that all but the incredibly wealthy can afford; if you are a fan that can not afford best tickets they put you in the seats behind the stage and the band Dont even have the decorum to turn around to face fans in cheap seats , you're watching their backs all night.

I saw them on 2/13 in NY. What an amazing show! But I heard the news of Richie leaving. I was devastated! John Shanks and Phil X are good musicians, but they are NOT Bon Jovi. The last album I bought, was What About Now. Haven't bought one since. Then Jon's voice went bad. Also a bad thing. I still listen to previous records, but they just don't sound the same now.

@@JohnProph Yes, Steve Perry did get ambitious and tried to go for a different sound on the "Raised on Radio" album and in doing so, Ross Valory and Steve Smith were kicked out of the band. But the guys got back together, buried the hatchet, and created "Trial by Fire." Then the drama ensued, resulting in Steve Perry being kicked out of the band. Karma? Maybe. But think of the authentic Journey music we would have had if Perry had been in the band this whole time. (But then again, who would want to be around all the Schon/Cain drama going on?)

@@JohnProph I honestly think that Gregg Rolie and the drummer, Ainsley Dunbar, were just unhappy with the change in sound that the band was making due to the addition of Steve Perry.

Nothing but mad respect for Phil X, he was asked to take this high profile gig and by all accounts has exceeded all expectations with humility for the situation. This other Shanks dude can't help but come off as a gold-bricker and an interloper. What Jon's motivations to cut Richie out are only known to him. Not a BJ super fan, they always seemed to be girl's band to me, so as Boromir say, "I care not".

Got no animosity towards Shanks on a personal level, but I think, in some degree, he's sort of ruined the band. Shanks to Bon Jovi seems like... Ono Yoko to The Beatles. "John" loved and loves that person but a bad influence on the band.

Jon Bon Jovi broke up the band by giving Shanks the creative control he shared with Sambora since day 1. First the narrator says that when Ritchie showed up to write songs with BJ, Shanks already had 30 so Ritchie said fine and left - then he says Sambora didn't show up because he was drunk, and Shanks pulled a Bob Kulick and finished the songs. Which is it?
