Vinnie F. Colaiuta

[S.P]

On the fiddler from the soulgrass album he credits vinnie as master drummer Vinnie F. Colaiuta

"Darol was invited to participate in a week of "Soulgrass", a live re-creation of jazz saxophonist Bill Evans' new CD release, at the famed Yoshi's Jazz Club in northern California. This four-night run featured Darol with Bill Evans, Bela Fleck, Jimmy Haslip (Yellowjackets) and master drummer Vinnie F. Colaiuta (Frank Zappa, sting, everyone else), playing mighty electric soul/bluegrass contusion music"

Is this a Typo or is it a secretive middle name that we (I) didnt know about?

[peter b]

Oh, I thought the "F" was for Vinnie "Fivethousand times better than you" Colaiuta.

I honestly get ill sometimes when I read some of these posts.
The first thing that comes to mind, is GET A LIFE guys.

This tangent is not only for this poster, I suppose it's a build up.

I am well aware that is a Vinnie and Dave board first. However, WHO CARES if Vinnie has a reverse lisp when he speaks? WHO CARES what VInnie's middle name is? Want to know what kind of shampoo Vinnie uses? Want to know what form of Christianity he's now into?
NOT ME...
Let's talk drumming.

And personally, I think you are lacking intellect to say anyone is the best drummer in the world. No one is. Drumming is an art form, not a sport.

Hey, smitty, why don't you tell us how you REALLY feel? [img]wink.gif[/img]

Wanna know what really makes me ill? Holier-than-thou attitudes. May I suggest chilling with an invigorating Hass CD. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Or you could get a life and stop reading the posts. Or stop posting here altogether. I'm certain that wouldn't cause much loss of sleep among the HOD brothers and sisters.

Groove...come on man.
I fully understand your point and would have to agree with you if people that responded to the first post went out of their way to launch an investigation to find out Vinnie's middle name. Things were taken with a grain of salt and I doubt the responses were supposed to be taken very seriously (including mine!).

[S.P]

I do care what his middle name is, every new thing i find out about him keeps him fresh and new to me and gives me more inspiration.

Plus, This was meant to be a bit of a joke anyway as im sure that it was a typo

and if it isn't...well its just a bit of trivia then

Suspiria, you're a class act but I think your response to grooveshitty's post was too nice. Joe Kennedy lost a Presidential election in the 40s because he was 'soft on Fascism.' He said something along the lines of: it was okay for the Black and Brown shirts to conquer and occupy Belgium and Poland as long as they stopped there.

Would you let bullies come into your 'hood, foul your nest and start pushing you and your friends around? I know your answer and I rest my case.

Groove's been here for barely five months and wants to ram his opinion down everyone's throat like it's the only one that counts. What'cha got to say about that, GS? You wanna do verbal warfare with me (yeah, it's a Vinnie quote), boy? I said boy because no man would mealy-mouth a post like that pissy little rant of yours.

I'm an eye for an eye, call a punk a punk kinda guy and I'm eagerly waiting for your reply, GS. Bring it on! [img]mad.gif[/img]

You owe the board an apology and should make yourself scarce, pal.
