Carmine on Vinnie show cancellation

[doublev2]

[doublev2]

My take on it is vv announced show thinking he would be able to learn the songs and get hiS playing back to speed but the closer it came the more he realised he would not be able to deliver. Then decided to jam instead of bother to learn the tunes.

[doublev2]

If he cancels in June he will blame one of these
1. The fans for bring unsupportive
2. The band not bring upto his liking
3. His lawyer or Wilkie if Wilkie is still involved.

[Genebaby]

Hmmmmm.....not great for our warrior. Carmine is a legend, he doesn't crap around, he is a reliable, professional guy.

[doublev2]

The drum thing was during guitars from hell sessions. Andre LaBelle who actually worked with Carmine later tried out lots of drums and they had Carmine's Slingerland set in the studios but supposedly went for the Ludwig.

Funny enough vv asked for Carmine's drums to eventually use thin sounding drum machine on the euphoria ep release

Relevant parts of the interview in words.

This is the same Vinnie that said bullshit about Chris, now saying it about Derek and Jim.

But this time he's being called out in a big way as these guys know what was going on.

It's a sadly familiar story.

[Slayer]

Carmine is a working professional and has the resume to prove it. He is strongly defending Derek and says that we haven't heard from him because he is ill................

[Genebaby]

Yes, he's a working professional. Two things Vinnie is not, yet he is behaving like he just put out a number one album.

Carmine even brought in Tony Franklin, we now know.

Vinnie was doing nothing, having everything handed to him, after he made the pledge for those shows, and then he pulled the plug.

That is the new "uncontroverted fact" on what happened.

[Slayer]

Yep it appears so, in the world of Vincent Cusano there is always one common denominator to every issue sadly. He must be too ill to realize this and understand why every opportunity slips through his fingers

[aeroflott]

Ah man. So sad to hear all this.

[strangeways]

I met Carmine the other month when I saw Vanilla Fudge and he said the same thing to me.

[doublev2]

I said this for about 9 years. All vv needs to do is keep the hell out of everything apart from making music. Have his daughters or sister run his stuff. But he needs to just work on music and not even have a say in the rest
Leave that up to family. I doubt the family want to be involved but that's all I can think of.
These horror movie memorabilia crack head assistants and lawyer are only self serving.

Booting his fans and calling them names is the most crazy thing he does and he doesn't understand that. He needs a thick skin and be happy he has any fans. And thank gene Simmons a million times a day

Carmine let the cat out of the bag

Guys, it all good.
VV is driving the car now.
I mean, really - what can possibly go wrong?
It's Vinnie's life
And he'll do what he wanna to, do what he wanna, do what he likes
It's his life
And he'll do what he wanna to, do what he wanna, do what he likes
'Lets just jam'.....JAM IT IN YOUR ASS, SIDEWAYS HILLOBUTT

[doublev2]

Well vv said it. He's driving the car. The only people he can blame now are the fans.

[doublev2]

He said he was driving the car in 1990 with guitars from hell and in the 95 expos as well. A well used term actually

[Genebaby]

Does he have a license?

[metatron]

From the in-sleeve of ASG seems like the Guys driving ASG was Dana Strum - his Volvo, Bobby Rock - his Corvette and Mark Slaughter on his Rollar Blades & Triumph TR-7.

Vinnie Vincent driving nothing

[doublev2]

Brings back memories of purchasing asg the day it came out. I bought two copies of all three formats so I could keep one of each unopened. Read all the credits that day. I wonder what Kramer gear vv used if any?

[shramiac]

"I wonder what Kramer gear vv used if any?"

Maybe just some NFT Floyds, as Kramer had exclusive use of Floyds back then?

[Genebaby]

You didn't need to go through Kramer to get a Floyd.

They were only exclusive to Kramer for production guitars. Other manufacturers could not offer them.

They were available to the public though and if you wanted one on your Jackson you would buy it for them to put it on.

Otherwise Jackson offered the Kahler, and in 87 the Jackson Floyd, the JT6.

[shramiac]

Yes! What i meant.

[Genebaby]

What I was saying is that anybody could buy a Floyd through a guitar shop, no need to go through Kramer.

So no need for Our Warrior to thank Kramer for that.
