Miles doesn't work with Sting since ages !!!
I would say since end of the 90's...

Miles is one smart business mutha...he's the guy who told Branford and company that nobody's coming to see them. It's all about Sting. However, he's smart enough to know that VC is one of the most beloved icons of the drumming world so why not cash in on that? I'm not gonna fall for it but many others might. It will show up for a couple days on YT and it will be on desktops everywhere just like the Chaka Khan rehearsal.

Nothing wrong with making money as long as no one is getting shafted. Besides, it's not like one is paying $40 for Vinnie's video specifically.
It just sounded a little steep for "the privilege" of being a member of Sting's fan club. Check out Omar's interview in the July '89 Modern Drummer concerning Copeland. I always felt Miles' diatribe in 'Bring on the Night' was directed at Omar specifically.

I didn't know that. Probably a good thing.

Christ almighty! That's the music business in a nutshell! LOL

I thought shafting was the point of music.

Why would anyone want to know that? What is the real question you're trying to ask?

? Pretty straight forward question imo... It´s obvious that there´s has to be a game plan if Vinnie will be playing Heuer often (considering how much he travels)...

yes it is about getting the shaft. im only in a tiny corner and i see enough.

Rumor has it that he plays for the FBI undercover... If that's true, then he really shouldn't reveal such detail IMO.

He's an undercover Navy SEAL, code name Agent Orange.

I don't know about FBI or Navy SEALS but I know scams happen everyday. Being cautious anymore isn't paranoid, it's being smart. These people come out of nowhere looking to defraud you...and most of it comes from overseas, in my experience. Of course, no offence intended for our overseas HOD brothers....

had no idea he was using Heuer Drums. never heard of 'em before.
