It would be cool to see any of Vinnie's previous live playing. I guess Dino thinks it is not up to the standard Vinnie would set later on.

Had no idea he was a scientologist, If the absence of weird behavior was a bench mark for the musicians I listen to it would be a very small collection... like zero

According to Edgar Winter in this interview by Jason Saulnier in Dec 2009, footage of the 1979-80 tour exists, but he's not specific.

He talks about Vinnie from about 5:26 to 8:00, and is very complimenty if a bit vague.

Eh...all religions are the same to me. Different box, same package. If scientologists mind their business, I mind mine. Just like any religion...

I don't know anything about this project of Vinnie's. Who is Edgar Winter? This must have been one of Vinnie's very early projects if its before the Dave Hartman stuff. Very cool more music to find. :D

It's not really a Vinnie project, he was just a musician in the tour, no writing contribution I believe.
