White Lion- Vito Bratta
Posted: Mon Mar 28, 2011 4:24 am
At least Vito Bratta has made an appearance on Eddie Trunk(with pictures) and gave a shit enough to give his reasons. Much respect and empathy to him.
Vito hurt his hand at one point, was taking care of his sick father, and ,I believe, running the family restaurant.
Small similarities with Vinnie. Too talented to just disappear.

I read somewhere that you wanted to do a reunion with the original White Lion members. What went wrong and it never happened?
MT: "No I never wanted it, but I was open to it. But everyone has to understand that Vito (Bratta/guitars) is like big sleepy elephant standing in the middle of the road, preventing anything from happening. He is the single and only reason why it will never happen."
With Vito Bratta you were a very successful duo! Do you keep in touch with him?
MT: "No, I just answer his lawyers letters, but I think it must be a miserable life to live the way he does. Never done one thing musically since White Lion broke up 20 years ago. No albums, no concerts, not even one little club show. Wow it is amazing one can live like that."
