VINNIE - The thread about Colaiuta

[Steve Holmes]

I took it down but geez...it was just a GIF which showed Vinnie's sense of humor.

Why does everything have to be so serious?

Cos Pocketplayer is the HOD thought police.

He has mod powers here so he can delete at will and spout whatever while remaining anonymous behind the Munster pick.

I deleted your post. I wasn't a fan of the lashing out at PP because you disagree with him. If you disagree, just say so and feel free to elaborate on why for as long as you want. No need for name calling or whatever.

So rare when you have to moderate at HoD innit Stevo ?!!!
Cheers baby.

I was transparent enough in the post above.

One shouldn't be so harsh with criticisms when one isnt willing to post with their real name or provide any evidence of playing for the world to assess. Its cowardly imo to judge and not willing to be judged yourself. Walk the walk if you will. As for the gif, PP should relax. After all it's not him in the pic.

I can see why players would not want to be put into that position. But who made PP The God that he portrays himself to be?

I get it. You all live in LA . Most of you guys actually know the best drummers . Does that give some people a power complex over others to know such esteemed musicians? If so that would be shallow .


Now get back to Vinnie!

Sorry, man but Patrick what drug are you on bro!

Your listening skills SUCK...I told you LEE SKLAR
did not like the GIF...I thought it was kinda funny
and privately told someone so...if Lee Sklar is a player
you do not respect, then say goodbye to HOD imo!

Geez dude, Lee and Vinnie are great friends that have
done 100s of sessions together! Im not gonna apologize
for knowing Lee.

It is NOT about Pocketplayer...
it is about RESPECT! I'f you have not followed
the posts I've made of my playing that is on you...

You're way OFF here...take it up with the mod Steve if
you have a continued beef with my "Thought Police"

I've been here at HOD for 20 years bro...20...I'll let the
other members judge me after all that time...if I've made too
many posts recently and that pissed you off well i've been
out of work due to Covid and caring for my father who passed
away...again, not going to apologize for trying to contribute
to this drum forum in what might be perceived in a little way...

UGH...

[Rodge]

Oh man, I send you my sincere condolences for the lost of your father, I lost mine in 2017, I don't know if time will ever heal the pain of this lost...
Hugs brother.

Not wanting to pile on, but I can't help at least admire a pile enough to login for the first time in quite awhile to say you're at least half or more the reason I stopped participating here. And it had to do with your replies to my content juxtaposed with your PMs. That's not some grand indictment of you as a person, but telling this other user something about him "SUCK"s goes to the tone I grew fed up with.

Topically, you objectively bear considerable responsibility this latest fainting couch drama by taking the video out of the maker's control and posting it on a forum where short slice and dice Gif files pulled from videos are common, or used to be anyway. And that is on you.

Ive been here since the 90s.

I see that I am not the only one who has a problem with your teacher's pet demeanor and your bitter,biased opinions.

You also like to blow up my pm with your attempt at a rant.
Well thankfully, In those pms I get to be more candid.

I love Lee Sklar and Respect the Man, but I dont play God for him or anyone .

Can we get back to posting Vinnie vids now? For the second time?

[Odd-Arne Oseberg]

Meanwhile at Vinnie's house.

[Steve Holmes]

Pocket Player: Be nice.
Patrick and Old Pit Guy: Be nice.

If you're already being nice then ignore this.
And now...

[Pocketplayer]

Fair enough...I would at least suggest that if a member has
an issue with me or another to PM and deal with it privately rather
then let it build up...if i need a correction, PM and I will listen!
Sorry for the rant on my end...
