   About Vinny Burns
I am a guitarist. I have played and recorded with Dare, Asia, Ultravox, Ten, Burns Blue, Bob Catley, Hugo and many other sessions too over the years. Thought it was about time to set up a myspace page. So here it is :-)


Update March 22nd 2008


As a lot of you will have now heard, I will be doing some gigs again with Dare. It’s actually the 20th anniversary of the release of the debut album Out Of The Silence. Can’t believe it’s been that long.
Anyway, really looking forward to getting on stage with Darren, Richie, Kev and Marc to do these shows. Cheers for the invite guys :-) It’s going to be great fun.


Also just uploaded a new demo called Guitarmasutra. Hope you like it.
I was playing this at the 2008 Muiskmesse in Frankfurt last week on the ENGL amplifier stand. Had a lot of fun doing it so thought I would get a version finished and put it up here.
If you want to see how to play it, there is a video below of an earlier version. You can basically see where and how it was played on that.
It was recorded with my chambered swamp ash Suhr guitar into a Dunlop Q-Zone pedal. It then went into my old 1979 Marshall 2203 amp and into a mid 80’s JCM800 4x12. The mic used was a Sennheiser MD509 and the preamp was my Focusrite 428.
Hope you like it.


Here is our first Dare single Abandon. We flew all the way to LA for a week to do this as the director wanted warehouses and derelict buildings.......and we were all living in Oldham at the time haha. We kept quiet and dug our passports out. The girl in the video ended up in the cult tv show Twin Peaks.




Here is the Dare single Nothing Is Stronger Than Love. We did this at The Rainbow Theatre in Finsbury Park in (I think) December 1988. I redubbed the audio as A&M originally used a really bad audio edit for the video and unfortunately, they forgot to replace it with the actual single edit.
There are loads of lights on stage. Bon Jovi did Wembly Arena the night before and their lighting rig came straight to the Rainbow for our video. The crew also went up to Milton Keynes to pick up a truck full of empty Marshall cabs haha.
The video company were the same one who did all the Bon Jovi ’slippery when wet’ era videos and also the def leppard videos from that time too.
Amyway, enjoy and sorry about the picture quality but it’s the only digital version I have at the moment.

Here is The Raindance by Dare. We did this at the N.E.C in Birmingham.




This is us (Dare) miming on a Spanish TV show :-)




This is a Dare show we did at The Town & Country club in London in 1989 on the Out Of The Silence tour. We did the gig with It Bites and The River City People. Each bands sets were then shown separately in ITV.




This is another Dare song called We Don’t Need A Reason. Can anyone hear a slight change in direction haha. We did this at Elstree film studios and me and Darren get to stand under a million fireworks. The people standing by with fire extinguishers didn’t fill us with confidence!!

This is the very rare video we did for Real Love and the last video I did with Dare. As far as I know, this is the only one on the whole net. Hope you enjoy it.

This is a ’Ten’ song After The Love Has Gone. I’m the one with the white Gibson Flying Vee. Wish I still had it :-(




This is another Ten song called The Name Of The Rose.




Here’s yet another Ten song. This time with a James Hetfield ESP Explorer. Had two of these and sold them. Should have kept one really.




Here is one of me messing about in my studio :-)

looking back it was a good night, I think I even kind of found it funny at the time, especially "WE ARE NICE PEOPLE", I have noticed a lack of coug talk on your myspace though, no homage to the coug is very disappointing, he has been gone now for nearly 5 years, although he did kind of show up recently briefly but that is another story, do call mate and soon,
