Hi all! Vinnie has been one of my biggest guitar influences since '83. Met and chatted with him many times and was always super nice. Glad to be here & so glad he's doing well.

Unfortunately I can't as I perform weekly in Las Vegas NV. I have so many great VV memories. First time I met him was in '86 when Dana & Vinnie did a personal appearance at Joshuas Parlor in Westminster, Ca right after the album hit. I wasn't 21 so I couldn't get in. We waited in the parking lot till they drove in. Vinnie was driving a BMW i believe and Dana was the passenger. We spent a good 15 minutes talking to them before they went inside. Another time was when my then band Tarrga was at an event Vinnie was a judge at in '88. A battle of the bands thing at The Palace in Hollywood. We sat w him in the balcony while he did his thing. Was always pleasant everytime I ran into him. Saw Invasion play 4 times including their final show in Anaheim '88
