The Vinnie Vincent Forum - Where Freedom Rocks!

Thanks man, I do my best!!

Great to see you at the gig Dannii, as always, glad you too enjoyed the killer show. Another great thing that happened at Glamfest was I got to meet another fellow VVF member, in the form of Erik Modin, who is the drum tech for Sweden's H.E.A.T., and the touring drummer for the Glamfest Australian t...

The boys in Slaughter headlined Glamfest in style last night, playing their first show ever in Sydney and second show ever in Australia, which was very cool. I did meet Dana a couple of times in the area and he was super nice and friendly and appreciative of me as a fan. He had nothing to say about ...

Re: Vandenberg 02.17.2024 Another great show attended!!

Another great show attended!!

Yes, as Dino said, Bobby was offered to go with them but chose to go his own way, which they were cool with and are still cool with him to this day. I met up with Dana a bit at Glamfest in Sydney yesterday and asked him about this, and got very serious. Yes, it's on, it will go right back to the beg...

He certainly was in top form, giving it his all on the LIU tour, being a complete 80's guitar hero!

The things I have heard about the Queen movie that I don't like are ones that change how Freddie is percieved and in relation to his legacy, and it makes no sense. It's the story of Queen, it can be accurate, there's no need to introduce things that didn't happen and make someone look different in t...

He's a bit like that isn't he?

Yeah, I should watch at least that one. I know there are innacuracies with the Queen one, which boggles my mind when the rest of the band were so involved!!!

There's a Slaughter film? That's so cool. I haven't watched the Dirt yet, or the queen one for the disappointment I know I will have with them, much like I had with Spinning Gold. I would be interested to see this, and it helps that Dana is so involved (of course he would be) and that he's saying th...

Wow, BOC are still around/going and KISS have finished, they go back so far together!

So Ace has released a SECOND video from his upcoming album which is due out SOON. This is how shit gets done in the modern age. All we get from Vinnie is ANNOUNCEMENTS and PROMISES but nothing comes out. He doesn't do any videos, the product is forever ALMOST FINISHED and ready TO GO TO PRESS. What ...

Ok, now the website really does seem down. The can't connect error is staying around, reloading doesn't help.

Vinnie's website was being strange. It gave me a "can't reach this page" type of message, and as I was looking for another way to check I had the correct address the page loaded up.

I've not been able to "see" the group on Facebook for months now. One day I was a member, the next I wasn't. I don't think I even posted anything even remotely contentious. I could see it if I cared to look until the other day, and then I was going to track the downward spiral in members. It sounds...

Yeah, I never saw it before anyway, was just tracking the downward sprial in membership, which has already been shown to be a huge number, as you can imagine.

I guess going secret Vinnie can hide the number but we know it's going to be less than ten!!

Good to know. Now he's going to keep the numbers to himself, but let's all assume it's very, very low!!

Crazy Ace.

Imagine what shopping with Vinnie would be like!

Possibly, and that should really have happened hopefully as it has to be against the rules, so hopefully someone did. Is it possible for a group to go invisible and not be seen in a search? All I was interested in was the membership numbers. Here's a comparison someone did shortly after the announce...

As mentioned in my other thread, searching for the Official group now also gives me this in the search results....

And then I see this, so the mystery continues.....

I'm told the group is still going so it does seem you got the boot

I'm not sure why I can't see it though, I could yesterday.

Strange, I cannot see the group at all but someone is telling me they are still in it and it's alive.

I was just posting that it looks like Vinnie's Euphoria group is gone, and that's why you may have got the boot if you were one of the 36 left from yesterday. The deadline had still not passed and if you were able to go to the February show you would be allowed to stay in. It looks like the group, l...

Hang on. Is it just me or is the Official Euphoria group now gone?

I was going to have a look at the member number but it seems to be gone now?

Will he even get a short term windfall? The deadline has not passed yet, and if most of those still there have access due to buying a show ticket then he will have gotten nothing but an even more pissed off fan base, and more ridicule across the internet. Steve Vai charges $5 for very cool stuff on ...

So Vinnie told us recently that there were just toooo many people in his Facebook group, at a time when there were under 1000 people in the group, though he said he was battling with turning away thousands. Today the group is down to 36 members. 420464755_6722994027805150_3384168882356418616_n.jpg I...

The sad thing was that until the last show was done, there was hope that something great and special would happen.

A bit like before any Vinnie performance that has been scheduled. Until it's cancelled, or the performance happens and it's a crock of shit, you have hope that it will be great.

It was a strange way to move forward once KISS was finished touring, and one I wasn't expecting. They certainly kept it under wraps. I guess they don't want to share and create a KISS 2.0 with other people and this is what we got. We shall see how the new avatar concerts, or whatever they are, do wh...

They aren't using their money for the avatar thing? Paul has since said we got the wrong idea, but I don't know how that could be. They presented it to us, we don't like it. Higher resolution, or whatever they think will make them "better", that won't help. Unless you have something that is so much ...

Nice, thanks! Great to be able to "read" some of the interview as well. His perfectionism seems to have grown since his time in KISS, he perfected the drums on VVI to death!

Exactly. What is Vinnie thinking? If this WAS a real offer, you don't get your lawyer to killl the deal for you, you say YES, and you send them your best song from the KISS style album he already wrote! But of course, how could it be real. Vinnie hasn't done a thing for so long, well, only bad thing...

You got him there Dino, telling us about something that is not even an embreyo yet! Not even fertilised!!

Other artists....Yeah, my new album is out next week, it's recorded and ready to go......

Oh noooo!!!!!!!!

Nice post aeroflott, many great points. I hear where you're coming from Dino. No shame in being a different person today than the 80's, but no, Vinnie tells us he's still a guitar god to be feared, yet gives nothing but false hope and lies in return, while other artists just get on with it, release ...

LoL....I'm not betting on ANYTHING to do with Vinnie doing ANYTHING!!!!

Indeed. Vinnis is well known to tank deals left, right and centre, so no breath holding, just another thing that "might" happen.

I hope he doesn't ask for like a gazillion dollars and 50% of movie profits!!! Do it for free man!! For the exposure and let people know you're back!

Unbelievable news, but very cool, it seems there is another Nightmare On Elm Street film and they have tapped Vinnie for a song.

Let's hope that everything comes together.

Since returning in 2018, telling us how much he practiced, and four yours later at CF we saw the truth. No band, no songs, just noise.

He is clearly spending too much time online, as Paul Runner, and who knows who else, ruining his own reputation.

It surely has to be against FB policy....

There will be a few people left in the group, those that attend the show next month, but even they could get booted at any time, same as a person who just paid up for the hell of it, they could get booted. Or you could not even get accepted after paying, and Vinnie's usual MO is NO REFUNDS!!! I am w...

Exactly!!!

Reminds me of those very valid posts about how our cars are supposed to roadworthy, but many roads are not carworthy!!

It's been fairly easy adjusting to being back, the flight home was long but also spanned the night time in Australia so we arrived in the morning and have been sleeping normal since, but still just a bit tired regardless. It was nice to give back the rental again, with no accident over all that time...

Vinnie contineus the madness, as apparently you can pay your fee to get into his otherwise free Facebook group, but still be denied if you don't meet his standards.

Nice Vinnie, nice.....

Hard to want! Classic!!

I'm not sure Eric's strategy is gonna work for the ol' Vinster. People seem pretty happy to leave and they aren't getting replaced.

his audience is very limited, and getting more exclusive all the time as people tire of his antics. Their is so little interest in his work in the general public it's not funny. It's a very niche market being a Vinnie fan, and how much money would we/they even want to spend on Vinnie product, should...

Anything is possible for sure, Vinnie has fallen out with just about everybody given enough time. I've hears some different things about Steve, but of course have no experience myself. I'm not a fan of anyone in his inner circle over the years considering how Vinnie's career is gurgling down the toi...

I'm sure he has some beans to spill, and others have beans on him!!

Sad stuff Ed, sad stuff. I do wonder if he even thinks about his family members and what it means to them with his crazy antics and all the bad press all the time. I can imagine they get stuff like, your crazy brother/father is at it again! His career and image was bad enough before, but at least th...

Was this just recently Ed? When I was reading what you wrote I was thinking of Dino's words about how Vinnie will boot anyone, it's so true.

It will be interesting to see how low membership goes in the Facebook group, and wether he'll let anyone stay for free to keep numbers up past 1, himself.
