Hey everyone :D

After 23 plus years of following Vinnie im finally calling it a day :!: :D

I have met some awesome, awesome people here over the past couple of years and at the dub v forum when Dino ran it too!

But I just cannot follow a guy that doesnt even give a flying f*ck for the people that really do care about him, offer him help for free to restart his career and visit this fan forum daily to check in and talk shop...He wouldnt give a single one of us the time of day...In the end Its the team here that kept me visiting this forum..not an interest in Vinnie...

I'll be checking in here over the next week while i have items on ebay listed in case any of you guys have questions, a friend is listing the 40 items on my behalf and I have a heap more to sell! PM me w/questions..

I would really like to thanks the great members of this forum - Vic,Dino,Rick,Andrew,Kev,Wolfi,Dannii,Sammy,Jason,Tony,PinkWiz,TJ,Tina,Alex...and the rest of you too! its people like you that keep Vinnies name alive cause Vinnie is certainly doing nothing to keep his name up in lights...

Vinnie helped build our Rock n Roll dreams but he broke them too...

Take Care Good Peoples!

Johnny B Goode! Woah, I saw the stuff in the sale section and now it makes sense. I will watch some of your stuff on EBay.

Please feel free to say hi whenever you like, you'll be missed dude.

Sad but true what you're saying. We follow a guy but he don't want us to support him...
My interest being a Vinnie fan slow down too but there is still interest on his music.
We will see what will happen in the next one or two years.. If Mr. Cusano is doing nothing - I'm out too...

It all comes down to the fact that we are here for each other more than for Vinnie anymore. All of us have felt the need to disengage every once in a while. Clear your head and come back. You are family and the door will remain OPEN.

John,
R.E.S. really states it perfectly here. Nobody is here for Cusano at least not anymore. We gather here for the friendships that we built some of us over many years now. Vinnie's outstanding music was the start of this and occasionally the old music still introduces us to new friends but if it were not for the efforts of Dino, Rick, Chris and Vic we wouldn't even discuss Vinnie anymore because after all what is there really to say. The great people who are members here drive this great forum and someday I see this evolving into a guitarists or Melodic Rock Forum that also talks about Vinnie and the great music that he composed.

You will be greatly missed but consider visiting often once you are refreshed from taking a well deserved break.

Very kind words from some truly awesome people :) I really appreciate everything you have all said and I think outside this cyberworld we would be friends for sure as we just get along so well. It's such a shame that vv can't be a part of it and share some experiences with this group, he really missed the mark and deep down he knows it..I'm really struggling with his actions against members here and have done so for some months...I don't know, I think I care too much!

KeV - you hit it on the head my friend

Dannii - that's a cool cat man, to cool to be looking that sad!

Vic - keep my membership open if you can so I can drop in to say hi now and then...

BB, of course your membership will stay valid. Let me know if you ever have trouble accessing your account, I can help you out rather than sign up again.

All the best, you've been on a cleanse for a while now, good luck with your auctions. I still can't brin myself to get rid of anything Kiss or Vinnie related.

We could change it to the forum of "cool guys that like to hang out" then you dont have to go ?

I gave up on VV long ago, love his music but he is really a non starter for new stuff, his useby date has long passed.

The global social interaction here is great and brings a smile to my face, make sure u dont go too far ok.
