From MW's FB page, posted a couple of days ago. It received a "like" from Robert:

"Mike Weeks
January 22 at 9:11am ·
You can blow out a candle
But you can't blow out a fire
Once the flames begin to catch
The wind will blow it higher

19 Robert Fleischman and 18 others

Robert Fleischman
Robert Fleischman So good to see you there at the Expo much love to you and the family take care till meet again"

Not to mention the pic Mike has with a recent photo of Bobby. Perhaps we WILL see a pseudo VVI "reunion"???

Not sure but it looks like he's attempting to wink in someone's direction. :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink:

Mike made this bass I am told and bought a Jackson neck. Mike would be an amazing choice as bass. He can play VV's lead guitars well and sing like Robert too. Quite a genius in that regard. I think his Boys are gonna rock was the best thing on the VV tribute album. They missed a trick not selling those at the expo to be honest.

I believe its Anders Johansson of Yngwie's band who is a big VV fan from memory
Drew may remember better. But he would be good in VVI if Bobby not in the running.

Patrick Johansson actually :) (his real first name is spelled "Patrik" as he explained some years ago after an YJM gig) :wink:

We spoke about VV and he was like "ja man, I love VV" and KISS in general. He has a pretty big KISS tat of the original four on his left shoulder (side). He rolled up his sleeve to show me after a YJM gig and wouldn't stop talking lol Great guy 8)

That's my guess.
I was hoping he would sing too.

He can sing, play guitar and bass! So I'm curious to see what he's going to be doing.

Mike get a VVI tribute band together and rock out these songs, at least someone should.
