Vinnie Vincent Invasion - The Ritz. All Systems Go Tour 1988
I recently was going through a camera bag that I hadn't used in almost 10 years when I came across a roll of black & white film.
I rarely shot B&W, so I figured it was a misplaced roll from a photography class. I was pleasantly surprised that it was in fact from
a VVI show from 1988 .
Years later I was driving with Mark Slaughter from New Jersey en route to Poughkeepsie, NY when I brought this show up to him.
The show always stood out to me because I was appalled at how long Vinnie's guitar solo was that night (and I love the guitar).
Mark remembered that night as well. It turns out that the owner of Chrysalis records was also at the show and he wasn't too happy
with Vinnie's behavior (or VVI record sales). However, he was so impressed with Mark that he decided, that night, to offer Mark a
contract with Chrysalis.
