Re: Vinnie shredding video at sound check

Again? Again? We get told Vinnie will be performing classic material, and all that happened was his soundcheck got extended and became the full performance. What gives? Man, if I had travelled a long distance to finally witness Vinnie's first proper live performance since 1988 I would be PISSED!! I...

Re: VINNIE VINCENT'S Merry Metal Christmas

Since the topic was mentioned regarding a fan being “crucified”, this was absolutely not the case. Every fanbase I’ve ever been involved in has had a few bad eggs with selfish motives in mind rather than the artist or community. That person manipulated and lied repeatedly to several of us about thei...
