Vinx or John Scofield? Both are dynamic and the music and intellectual discourse they create.

Isn't it SAD what people listen to now when you have to "research" youtube to find the brilliance that is Vinx! Thank you all for loving him as I do!

Having a front row seat so to speak from all the shows we did together was quite and amazing moment in time. Actually Vinx was the first industry show that I booked, lost my arse on it (not totally) but created a run of years where Mid-Michigan got to jam and exposed to some of the best music and talent around.

Those Vinx jams were legendary - I put together 4 - 5 guys from around Michigan and around town and Vinx would start out "As long as the music is good every body can stay, if it starts to suck every bodies got to go." I have happy to say that most people in the audience weren't even aware that those guys weren't in Vinx' band.

Vinx hosted Stuart Copeland's "The Rhythmatists" at Hummingbird Centre. The audience was transfixed. He was awesome. Sting saw him in a bar and told Copeland
