The Vinnie Vincent Forum - Where Freedom Rocks!

aeroflott

I will say, he's far more eloquent than he was at the 90s expos. Great stories full of detail.

aeroflott

Guys if you search "Vinnie Vincent" on Facebook, there's a ton of live feeds.

aeroflott

Well, there he is alright.

aeroflott

There's been no real bashing on 3 sides of Vinnie. As a long time listener, I get their humour and irreverence. Sure there's been a gag or two about Vinnie's exploits - especially about the shenanigans at the European Expos. You've got to realise that if you put yourself out there, you've got to tak...

aeroflott

Really cool. Ace is clearly going through the motions. On occasion he talks his way into a dead end. LOL at his his comments around the 27:00 minute mark. Gene spitting on the floor = gross. Presumably what must have been days after this interview, Ace was out and Vinnie was in? 24 hours is a long t...

You sure about that?

Don't know if anyone noticed this video on the Kiss Expo's YouTube page. Posted last week:

aeroflott

Hahah! Lay off the eye liner Vinnie!

Sounds like he's up for this. Great news.

aeroflott

Really great news. So looking forward to all this.

Getting Bobby Rock there too would be great.

aeroflott

Those guys are only out to promote their amateur little podcast and the name to further their interests. If you listen/watch their episode # 236, they are talking just 2 months ago about the NYC Expo with the same promoter Derek Christopher, and Peter Criss was the special guest who DID NOT WANT th...

I was very surprised to hear Three Sides would be there. I thought VV wasn't a fan of Brandvolt? Incidentally, next week, Three Sides of the Coin are interviewing the event organiser, to interview him about how he found Vinnie. Should be an interesting chat. My prediction: he'll show up, will go thr...

aeroflott

Cool beans. Was hoping for a video message or something, but it's a start!

aeroflott

A tour would be too much. Can't see that happening at his age, with all the water under the bridge and having not performed properly in nearly 30 years? I can't see anyone taking that on, even if VV wanted to do it. Besides, aside from Bobby Rock who I think would do it for shits and giggles, Fleisc...

aeroflott

Reflecting in this for a minute, I think this is a huge deal. Aside from the fact that this is a VV forum, and our man has appeared out of nowhere. Here's a guy who shunned the limelight for whatever reason for the last few years, and is clearly prepared to put himself out there again. And he's not ...

aeroflott

Just spotted this interesting snippet in the FAQ section of the website: https://www.lakissexpo.com/faq Is there anything Vinnie won't sign? Because Vinnie is working on a new line of custom Vinnie Vincent Model Guitars, Vinnie will not be able to sign any guitars or musical instruments. A new lin...

aeroflott

Well Christ.

That's a shocker to say the least!

aeroflott

I wondered why I was having a conversation with myself in the thread in the News Section, then I found this! Great stuff - and great to hear this tune live. Much of what Mark put down with VVI is very challenging for any vocalist, so I'm surprised he did as good a job as he did after all these years...

aeroflott

Also take a look at Mark Slaughter's Facebook page. There's a video on there were he and the band confirm they will be playing VVI tunes at the show.

aeroflott

A nice update from Bobby on this on his Facebook page this morning! Look who Mark Slaughter and I ran into at the hotel restaurant tonight: One Mr. Dana Strum! Over three decades later, "The Three Musketeers" are still out here doin' it. Dana's hittin' in town tomorrow night with Vince Neil; Mark an...

aeroflott

What a great guy Billy is.

Those guys need to get this Eat Em & Smile tour sorted out. They'll clean up.

aeroflott

Picked up this little snippet from Bobby's Facebook page today: Looking forward to playing with my bro again at the first-ever Mark Slaughter solo show - June 22 in NYC - in support of his killer new release, “Halfway There.” Bad-ass band, featuring Mike Himmel on guitar and Jaymi Millard on bass: J...

Just flicking through the 'documentrary' without even understanding Swedish, you can tell there's no substance there at all.

And that female voice coming through the phone who gives an address, then tells them "you're looking for a woman" sounds scripted by an actor to me.

aeroflott

Thanks gents. All good. I seem to recall picking all this up relatively cheap on release too.

To be clear, I'm not looking to make a quick buck, just clearing some stuff out and wondered if there was any value here as I list my other CDs on eBay. 99 cent starts it is!

aeroflott

Hi all - looking for some prices on the following please? 1. Vinnie Vincent The EP Limited Edition CD. Signed by Vinnie #497. Everything there. Great condition. http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a108/aeroflott2/WiiEbay/IMG_20170508_185349_zpsjijjk3kf.jpg 2. Vinnie Vincent Archives CD. Speedball Jam....

Thanks for posting this. Nuno is my all time favourite guitarist bar none. His style is so casual and effortless.

aeroflott

I'm no handwriting expert, but someone should get a graphologist to look at this. His style is very flamboyant it seems to me, much like his guitar playing I suppose. Some basics that seem relevant to this letter, according to a quick Google search: 1. People who apply light pressure when writing tr...

aeroflott

This was a good listen - thanks for sharing. What is refreshing is that Bobby seems to be one of the few people who worked with Vinnie that doesn't take the easy route of just dismissing him as a fruitcake/whackjob/whatever. He goes a bit deeper behind his actions and behaviour and at least gives us...

aeroflott

I was holding back a bit as I was didn't want to offend if it was written by someone on here. But by Christ, it's a poorly written piece. The whole thing is based around two "facts". It's a great example of what the internet has become. Any idiot with an opinion can skim read something they read on ...

aeroflott

His fans too took great advantage of him and used his fame to excel with their shady motives. He was hired by a fan, to design his signature guitar, that was later titled VV Guitar and was widely sold, only to benefit the investor. While Vinnie Vincent didn’t pay him a cent for his contribution. Eh...

aeroflott

I was very surprised there wasn't more celebration of Eric's life this year with the 25th anniversary thing. Didn't see anything put out from the band or in the media really, unless I missed it. Shame.

aeroflott

This was recently uploaded to YouTube. Great quality Kiss Bootleg from I assume what was the Lick It Up Tour.

Vinnie's Solo is at 12:00

Merry Christmas all.

I was idling around on YouTube this afternoon watching live videos. The '83 Rio Live performance came on. [youtube]https://youtu.be/TjAA9Tlpiqk?t=576[/youtube] And it struck me. Here was a guy, 30 years old, who had achieved only moderate success as a musician up to that point, and he steps into the...

Not seen many of them before. http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a108/aeroflott2/Vin/Screen%20Shot%202016-11-17%20at%2015.55.28_zpsdgvvskud.png http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a108/aeroflott2/Vin/Screen%20Shot%202016-11-17%20at%2015.58.02_zpsqnrmvbw6.png http://i10.photobuck...

All Systems Go for me. Sits better on my ears from a production point of view, and Vinnie's phrasing and melodies are just nailed on. Ashes To Ashes in my view is the perfect Vinnie song.

aeroflott

I saw Ace a few years back. Was expecting a car crash, and had it in my head to leave early, but he was incredible. Great energy about him and you really appreciate his playing when watching live. IMO this is the best track on the album, although I don't like Ace's singing style when he does that ta...

I saw Bobby Rock mention this today on Instagram. I have a two hour car journey coming up today and shall be blasting this as I drive. Been a while since I listened to it from start to finish.

Edit: Also, 30 years ago! THIRTY. YEARS. Jesus I got old...

aeroflott

That T Shirt says "World Tour". Did VVI ever play a gig outside of the United States or Canada?

aeroflott

Post of the year - cracking job sir. That's my bedtime reading sorted for a couple of days!

aeroflott

Yeah. It's clearly not Eric as he's on the right of the same picture (doh!).

Support acts on the Creatures Tour were Night Ranger and Plasmatics I think. Is it one of those band members?

aeroflott

I assumed it was Eric Carr sans makeup.

But now you say that I'm not sure. Is it Juan from Ratt?

Stumbled across these pics over the weekend.

I was never a fan of Lita Ford - that's not to say I don't like her music, just never had the opportunity to listen or see her live. So on Saturday I saw Bobby Rock mention on Instagram that he was playing with her over here in England for one show that very night. I managed to grab a ticket just 3 ...

The poor guy must be getting so many prank calls...

Just had a play around on YouTube - what a great band. "Pink on the Inside" sounds like "Wanted Man" by Ratt.

Good stuff.

aeroflott

It's an interesting insight into his playing style, but I can't say I've listened to it more than once. The fatigue would set in for me after 10 minutes. Not to mention you can't select any tracks, it just plays through as one recording.
