Metal Sludge — In a brand new interview with The Classic Metal Show, former Enuff Z’Nuff singer and songwriter Donnie Vie is the guest.

Vie talks at length with CMS co-host Chris Akin and doesn’t hold his tongue when the subject of his former band and co-founding band-mate Chip Z’Nuff comes up.

“I proposed doing shows with them (Enuff Z’Nuff) again, and um… he (Chip Z’Nuff) shot it down. He wanted nothing to do with it.” says Vie (as transcribed by Metal Sludge).

Vie continues as he says he asked Z’Nuff: “What do you think the fans want? Do you think they want to hear you up there, ah, gargling thumb tacks, or do they want… the guy. I mean, I am the guy. You know what I mean?”

On Chip Z’Nuff’s current lineup of the band: “Let him do what he wants, ya know. It’s ah, I don’t think it’s, it’s not Enuff Z’Nuff, that’s what it is… it’s just, call it that… is ah, like putting a turd in Snickers wrapper… you know what I mean, it’s like you open it up and it’s like (gagging) and then what happens then? You never want a Snickers again.”

Vie closes with: “All the greatest things and all the saddest things, and this and that, that I have done in my life, I did with that guy next to me. And um, ya know…. I considered him a big brother. And, ah, I am not so sure, ah… you know what I was considered. Really, the people that get ya, are the people you are not watching.”
