I know a few folks who have eaten plane tickets TWICE this year because of cancellation/postponement.
The good news is that Vinnie isn't fucking around bringing these two legendary guys on board.

Bad news and good news, but man, if I was planning to travel and of course everything would be booked by now, I would not be a happy camper.

No mention of Robert but I understand he will still be there.

I choose to laugh at it. And I have a feeling there is more to come.
Amateurs.

Yep...
I am quite excited to know it will be taking place in Nashville instead of Memphis; able to hang with certain peeps. And seeing who else will be there is pretty cool..some of those I would have never thought I'd see in my lifetime.
Yet, am saddened by another plane ticket gone to waste. Twice in a year, over $400 gone lol but since I got trip insurance this time, MAYBE I can get it back or at least a flight credit?
I just hope this isn't something that will be a reoccurring issue.

Hopefully your insurance will cover it as it's a situation beyond your control.

I wonder what will happen to t-shirts and other merchandise with Graceland on them?

Works better for me.
I had not purchased my tickets for flight yet so I lucked out.
Nashville is easier for me to get to.

I am now going both nights instead of just one.

The new venue seems to be ROCKETOWN in downtown Nashville.

The fretless bass is going to sound interesting!

That's what I'm hoping as well. Fingers crossed.

Is it similar in size?

despite what some may say,
SIZE DOES MATTER

I would not attend any event that Derek is involved with and would not be surprised if this gets cancelled again.

Sorry if people lost money, but that kind of story keeps me fascinated. I can’t think of another celebrity acting like that!

Carmine appice? Damn.

Clearly from a long time ago, but good to see Carmine and Vinnie are going to play together again.

Fresh info from Carmine about the upcoming shows and Vinnie

I lost interest in the Memphis show when it went from acoustic to "full shred". Graceland would have been magical.

No interest in the Nashville show, even though I live in the Nashville area. And I would never touch anything Derek is involved in, even if I had free tickets.

Wishing VV nothing but success and hoping he can actually go through with this show.

It certainly has been interesting, but this video was just posted, so it looks like Carmine is in a happy place with Vinnie.

Derek put a video out that almost promotes the Nashville shows.
A step in a better direction.

Do we think it may have been filmed at a Nashville diner during a rehearsal break ?

Could be man, could be!

The addition of Carmine was a shock due to his feelings on Vinnie and Vinnie's feelings on drummers.

Nice vid. He looks genuine with what he's saying, which is great to see/hear!

Life is way too short to hold on to grudges. I am glad that many of the bands/musicians out there are realizing this and mending fences while they still can.

None of us are immune to this one... Very difficult to master no matter how in touch we may be with our inner Spock.

Amen, Sometimes it just takes the strength to look at someone face to face and agree to NEW BEGINNINGS.
The process is in motion...
