The Vinnie Vincent Forum - Where Freedom Rocks!

Since the smaller house has become public record, I figure it will only be a matter of time that Vinnie's bigger house will be made public. These are photographs AFTER it was cleaned out.These were NOT taken by me but were shared with a few of us here on August 19,2014 when someone went to the PUBLIC auction for the smaller house. They went to the property to see what they were bidding on and found the larger house unlocked with the doors OPEN.
These are not being posted to embarrass anyone. In fact, These are being posted to draw attention to a BLATANT fact that someone has a serious illness and we need to help in some way so he doesn't meet the same fate as his ex-wife(R.I.P.).

The photos below show the outside of the smaller house(it was locked by the realtor at the time) and a lot of the inside of the bigger house.

Sad, it reminds me of death but old death - something or someone who has been dead a long time

Geez! It looks like it was used as a storage shed rather than lived in? Door in the third picture looks like it's been stained by the dogs they owned, pushing it open and walking through!

Not stuff I ever wanted to see!

That does not look cool at all.

Vinnie, Vinnie, Vinnie, didn't I always tell you that living well was the best revenge?

Wow.. ick.. Wow

Yikes.
So is he completely outta there and gone then?
I guess so.

Yeah, he's out of there alright.

Well you have to remember the house was cleared out but yes seems like both houses run down and not looked after. Looks like defeated living.

After seeing these photo's, I was left with a nauseated feeling inside, I had hoped Vinnie at least was living somewhat comfortably inside his humble dwelling....the sight of the abandoned dusty & broken string guitar really hit home and makes me wonder how Vinnie could just walk away from his love for making music and playing his beloved guitar....If he had just reached out and was reasonable, "We" his "True" fans would have helped him in anyway we could have to rise from the ashes and be the Rock God he could have easily been. I hope wherever he is, he is at peace and knows that regardless of what he thinks about "Us"....We are still here for him !!!

Oh man I feel quite depressed seeing this. He's been online looking for adulation and hero worship while living in abject squalor. Makes me feel very sad for him and Diane. I have to remind myself that this was all a product of his choices.its about the most depressing thing I have seen for a long time.

Looks like Burt was right about Panda Express, and he exposed that a month ago

So sad. But what about that guitar.. Should somebody get that before a new owner trash it. I mean, it's still Vinnie's guitar.

i see a pile of tapes on the second picture

And something like a Tiffany glas. Some of you who live near by.. please, save that stuff.

i think that by now they threw away everything

Ok peeps lets put this in prospective, this is not abject squalor by force this is abject squalor by choice. These were not large homes inhabited by a 80 year old disabled person that could not clean. This is just being absolute lazy nasty. The shape of D's house kinda makes me even more apathetic towards Vinnie she obviously was in the the stages of just drinking her self to death and he just moved to the other house and let her. The whole thing is just sad, If this is mental illness at work its beyond a medication issue he needs to be hospitalized.

Most likely so.

This is ex wife dianes house. You have to account for it being trashed in the removal but yes it's squalor. Vinnies house is on next post and no better

Diane must have had a dogs life, no pun intended

Diane came from a very nice caring family. Obviously lots of hurt in her life caught up with her like a lot or all of us. She certainly knew what she wanted and got it when she was younger but I guess she realised that the whole rock star thing is just an illusion and wears off quickly. A tragic story that millions share.

This makes me extemely sad. I wish I could do something.

Huffy bout time someone gave me the kredits I zurve burt knows everythings huffies hired hand

Well you can at least say vv is a trooper. He has gone through a lot of shit. Yes mostly brought on by cause and effect from v himself but he is definitely a trooper and impressive he keeps trying. I just wish he could be easier and cooler with people in the long term.

All of us do.

Burt is an elder as well.

This is pretty sad. I hope wherever Vinnie is that he is doing just fine.

i believe they were at those houses for about 15 years if i am not mistaken.

I am relieved Vinnie is no longer in that environment. I think he should get out of Tennessee altogether and go back to Connecticut if he hasn't already. I truly hope he is not alone but is with family and friends.

It is in safe keeping.

"Well, I made it so you can walk through the halls, but I think I'll leave the grocery bag full of feces in the bathtub."

I always wondered what the hell that brown mass near the bag was.....I am sorry I had to read the comments.

dog shit ?

The keeper has to be careful with that guitar, Vinnie might sue him...
Wasn't it that guitar Vinnie was allowed to keep after his bankruptcy? If yes that was the only guitar he could have sold legally... Now it's another Vinnie cursed guitar!

he was lying, he still has all of his old guitars, even the ones he stole from mr palecki.

Some of us know exactly where he is and will not tell.

This depresses me. This guy was such a great guitarist and now he is just falling so far. Someone needs to find this man and help him out.

Agreed but he isn't someone easy to help. I hope his sisterand kids would help him

I'm sure that someone would love to help him if he would only let them. I loved his work and I would buy something of his if it wasn't so damn expensive. Why won't he just come to this forum so that he can address us on all the problems he is going through? I am sure that if he came here we would all welcome him here because he is the reason this site exists.

he sees everyone and everything as enemies after using you.

What I found upsetting was the cheap Cameo guitar, which is a budget first guitar with cheapo nylon strings.
Considering the guitars Vinnie USED to play, its kind of upsetting.

is so sad and so strange to think that this same guitar may have been used to record Ya know, I'm pretty shot

Could have been dianes. If he used it and liked it I am.sure he wouldn't have left it

It's funny (it's not though ), that this post is what has drawn all the "Lookie Lous" to visit the VVFF. Nice that ten or so have the courtesy to have signed up as members but sadly most here viewing are the rabid anti-Vinnie KISS-oholics!

Sorry, in a bad mood! But i said it so........ppppppppppppppffffffftttttt

dont you worry, not a chance in hell that guitar was ever used for recording anything VVI with.
