According to Stwvw Wilkie there is a Full Shred Fest show being announced.

Anyone with details about when and where?

Over/Under on reschedules?

Think Wilkie is putting it on?

Rumors or not, we tread a fine line if we post anything.
Let whomever the show is for enjoy it and let's try not to get it cancelled by posting information or guesses.
If we're invited, Vinnie will go public with the information.

See attachment message from S. Wilkie

Good to see something is going on.

Yes Genebaby but it would be highly appreciated if Vinnie could make his announcements himself, no ? To show respect to his fan base

It would indeed be greatly appreciated.

Yes, it would be quite nice for Vinnie to announce things to us himself, but I guess we get what we get.

Maybe it will change in the future?

Yes...let's hear news from the man HIMSELF. No need for a messenger boy.

Stephen may be Meredith after all. W, M, VV : same letters

Speaking of Meredith, I've always wondered who created this Meredith Cusano fb page. It popped up in my suggestions years ago. And the profile states they're male.
Probably a nobody created it but I've always wondered.

"Others out there" Do you think this is a respectfull way to call Vinnie's fans ? To me it is totally disrespectfull !!!!!

Honestly, no.

He was addressing the members at Euphoria and was happy to include non members in the announcement. SW obviously knows that members at VV Euphoria will tell their friends who are not members of that page about any upcoming events and to me, that's a good thing. More publicity is good publicity.

I don't find it disrespectful but it makes no sense.
Yeah lol let's make announcements on an upcoming event in a private group where if you are a non member the only way of finding info is if a member screen shots and shares it.
Make it simple for everyone and just create a fb page for said event and post solely updates/info on that event.

It’s mind boggling how any could honestly think this will really happen. At this point when you get ripped off and lose money on travel arrangements, it’s your own fault

I dare say people who need to travel will not be looking to go to this. I can certainly understand why you would only look to go if it was local to you.

Which would be a great start in getting things rolling for future shows, and maybe even some proper touring.

John Carobi will be bringing his Motley 94 show to Sydney next week, after doing it i the States before, which I'm excited to be going to.

Wouldn't it be great if Vinnie could manage that at some point?

It would be a good idea, once the date and venue are secured, to create an event page for this upcoming gig, rather than just talk about it in a private place.

It is kind of mind boggling. Having a private, Vs public page. What does everybody in show business want? Publicity!!!!

It's called publicity for a reason, the public. If you want privacy it means you are doing things you don't want the general public to be aware of.

Just my four cents.

So then he’s narrowing his audience down to not only people within driving distance of Nashville, but also only to people who are members of yet another random private FB group. What does he only want 3 people to show up?

Well, it's possible someone could want to book travel, but I don't see it, so yeah, it's a bit stupefying as to how this is going on, but baby steps I guess.

Pull this show off, and go from there.

Not many people at the first KISS shows either. You just gotta put on a show people want to see, and be reliable.

Why should the fans be treated differently ? Why only those part of the so callled euphoria group would be allowed to know !!!! I have never seen that !!!! Imagine Paul or Gene asking a obssessed fan to talk on their behalf !!!!! This is just crazy !!!!

Wilkie or Vinnie don't want some fans to be part of this secret group !!! Why ? If you people think it is great I don't !!!! I won't spend a cent on someone who discriminates his fans !!!!!

I think it's stupid too. Doesn't make sense.

After the recent exercises in dismissing returns i regards to his 'fan' base. (cancelled gig, after cancelled gig, bum steering 'fans' - refer to the fine print definition of 'fans' in regards to VV, i.e. accommodation, travel plans, work plans, out of pocket costs involved with investing in someone who can't even muster a single lick on the guitar)
I think VV should be happy if he has even 30% of people still keen in him from when he made his initial comeback.
Beggar can't be choosers.
Get your head out of your arse.

I wish the best but even if this does take place, I don't see many people showing up. There will probably be a big decrease in fan base size, unfortunately.
I've already read many, many comments from those who say they no longer care or don't plan on going due to how they were treated by VV/S.W and getting kicked out of the private groups for petty reasons. Then being told they aren't real fans.

Yes, those are bad moves.

One of Vinnie's mental deficiencies is called "Delusions of Grandeur."

Come on.
Why is it so difficult to accept the way Vinnie is comfortable in delivering a message ?
You can choose to go or you can stay home but there is no reason to attack anyone's perceived mental health or throw any jabs in Vinnie's direction.

Whatever, Dude.

Vinnie has worked hard at earning every jab thrown at him - and a few left hooks for good measure.
Denial is not a river in Egypt my friend, and it certainly doesn't change the facts.

Done with this discussion....Peace Out.

Of course you're done. You have nothing to bring to a discussion except insults and lame jokes.
I deny nothing. I simply refrain from acting out because I dont get my way.
If Vinnie wants to play...he will.
If Vinnie feels comfortable talking through an assistant...so be it.
Vinnie is dealing with over 30 years of exile. A performance would be difficult for anyone to wrap their head around after that long.
Even if the issues you accuse him of having are true, using a bit of decorum and humanity goes a long way and can actually help the guy get through any issues he MIGHT have.
Metal Sludge (a site I love) seems to be your speed.
Don't shit in a house that is meant to honor what we enjoy about someone.
Wisecracks just expose ugliness and we are pretty here at The VVFF !

Hang it up SW your tales have holes all in them...
