LOVE the new album outside the totally dumb cover song and "Immortal Pleasures." My first run through this album didn't go very well, as I was hearing stuff I didn't like (fades, overproduced snare, too much reverb in spots, etc), but with repeated listens, the songwriting and Ace's overall ...

I understand doublev's chagrin over V's statement, particularly given his vast past efforts to V's benefit. HOWEVER (directed to the rest of the planet) -

V is not an elected official, he does not hold public office, etc. He is a PRIVATE PERSON. If any of us were in that situation, we'd be ...

Wendy was fucking awesome, and a saint. I'm not crazy about her voice in some stuff, but it KILLS on the "Maggots" album. That's a top-10 fave.

I don't see how Gene ever thought he could make her break nationally and have commercial appeal, but go figure, she *did* have a Grammy nomination in '85 ...

"The public's a bunch of assholes." - Charles Manson.

The above quote is interesting because 1) it's largely correct, and 2) was stated by a madman. Just because someone's crazy doesn't mean they're always wrong. And, conversely, just because someone's allegedly NOT crazy doesn't make them right ...

No worries, it's easy to miss nuances in the written word, which is why I try to be as specific as I do.

Who knows - If V is a loose nut right now (I hope he's ok), he's got some dogs he'd like some people to meet if he feels they're hanging around his fence too much! If I were in his shoes, I'd ...

I hardly call checking out his fence stalking.

Again, don't put words in my mouth! :D I never said that it's stalking - I said, don't do things that "could be interpreted" as stalking. Knowing how secretive V is, it's entirely likely that HE could *interpret* someone loitering around his property ...

DoubleV - Nope, I do not know him, just share the same birthplace.

I would not encourage anyone to engage in any sort of behavior that could be interpreted as harrassing or stalking - It's clear that V is intensely private, and it would be incredibly fucked up for anyone to not respect those wishes ...

My man should WRITE A BOOK! He can use the capital to get out of hock w the shekel-hoarders and their shysters, get HIS version of everything out in public, and maybe kickstart a re-launch with whatever couple beans are left over... Lord knows, he's got more than enough material NOW, let alone the ...

Sorry, threats? Is there info in another thread about this? I've never been here before today and am completely unfamiliar, sorry for the n00bness, thx!

All the best,

How do we know that vv has not been paid?

Who said he was not paid? He *was* paid, but he thought he was a member of the band (as we all did at the time) and he wasn't - He was a hired gun, and believed he was entitled to more than he legally was. That's all. I didn't say he wasn't paid, I said ...

Hi all -

First-time poster (and maybe last?) - I'm not big on forums, not much of a social butterfly... Just wanted to throw in a NOTE OF SUPPORT FOR VINNIE!

I agree with the (many) people who say that he shouldn't have hit/beaten/whatever his wife, *if* that's what happened. But as we've seen ...
