Richie Sambora Pulls Out Of Bon Jovi Tour

For about the next month, or as long as a 30 day stint in rehab would be, Richie Sambora has pulled out of the remaining dates of the Bon Jovi tour. In a statement on the band's website they say that Richie is not playing because of "personal issues." I suppose he could be just wanting to spend some time with his family, but the more likely explanation is that Richie, who has had issues with substance abuse in the past is probably seeking treatment for those issues. he did not join the band for their tour stop in Edmonton last night.
