VINNIE - The thread about Colaiuta

[Mark P]

Hello folks!
Been a very long time, but hope everyone's doing well!

I wanted to see Vinnie with JB so thought this'd be the place to see if he were on it or not, but there are pretty strict rules on vaccination statuses still in parts of Europe (I'm touring there myself this summer - the paperwork for us Brits to get over to our own non-island continent is simply insane now) and wondered if that might present a problem for my desire to see the GOAT live..

Best,
MP

I'm not really sure. I've heard that Annika Niles is doing some of the dates. I think that was mentioned earlier up in the thread.

Hey Mark,
Great to hear from you here, it's been a while mate !!!
Well, I guess we need to wait when Vinnie will update his website, then maybe he'll put the date he will play.
But Paul must know better...

I asked Rhonda Smith about this and she said that Vinnie won't be playing these Finland dates, I guess he's on UK dates. Does anybody know the other drummer?

It could be Jonathan Joseph.

I got a reply from Rhonda and she said it is Anika Nilles! I'm not sure if she plays the whole tour or just a part of the tour. But at least she's playing the Finland gigs June 19-20. I think this is still secret because I haven't seen it anywhere. So now it's public...

It is official! Anika announced it today on IG.... What an opportunity! Happy easter!

Cool. Just ordered a ticket for Kristiansund on the 25th. It's a short drive.

I'm not vaccinated and luckily my government doesn't give a shit.
