G'day from Melbourne, Australia

Post by NaughtyNaughty »

Hi - I only discovered VVI in the last couple of months and all I can say is what a shame this band and their music never got the recognition they deserved and what a pity VV was treated the way he was by the record company - if only he'd toned down some of his solos a little and they'd worked as more of a team and found unity and happiness together then they could have been really something - I think the band name should have been Invasion from the start - Vinnie Vincent Invasion doesn't have a great sound - he is such a talent - if only he would release more material - he must have an enormous amount of ideas, music, lyrics and solos stored away - we may never get to enjoy it even unless he shares now - hello to all - I look forward to reading and learning more about the great man.

Welcome dude. Sometimes I am grateful we got what we did out of Vinnie. He's not been a high functioning person for a while now. So much talent gone to waste but we could have gotten less.

All he's good for lately is some humorous antics on the internet, and stealing guitars.

Yo, yo,yo!
Promises made, crying in vain, all empty. Never accepting the blame and not letting go of the shame. A river of tears, as months turn to years, all wasted. On someone not willing to change.Now only a shadow remains! :(

I wouldn't want a TONED DOWN Vinnie.I do like it when he shows the wide scope of his playing though.
Vinnie played ball and toned down his solos on ASG. I still hope to hear ASG as Vinnie wanted it.

I beg to differ, The Vinnie Vincent Invasion separates the men from the boys.

Vv if he ever pus out music it will be pre 1996. After 96 nothing. Any come back will be putting out music that's at least 20 years old with 90s drum machine or demos. 99% will be songs we already know. Sad state of affairs.
