Richie Sambora still has a “never say never” attitude toward the idea of reunitingwith Bon Jovi, but fans shouldn’t expect it to happen anytime soon.
“I’m not ruling it out, because I think I would do it a lot for the fans there, because they were so important to us,” Sambora told ABC News Radio during a recent interview. “I wouldn’t want to go out and do those long tours anymore, but … I love those guys, man, and I’m not shunning it whatsoever … Man, we had a run. Thirty years is a run.”
Questioned further regarding the reasons behind his surprising split with longtime partner Jon Bon Jovi two years ago, Sambora shrugged that he “needed a change” and added that he wanted to get back to a situation where he was responsible for lead vocals — but reiterated that the band’s grueling schedule was the main factor in his departure.
