Bass ๐ŸŽธ 1980/81 – 87/88. Old official page was bass guitar from 1979 – 1989.

Michael “Flint” Vujea (misspelled Vujejia) was bassist with CU roughly 1980-1988. He joined after the recording of Frost and Fire, but before it was released. They guys liked him so much that they decided toย include his picture and credit on the album cover despite the fact that Greg Lindstrom played ALL of the bass tracks on Frost & Fire. He lives inย Las Vegas and is a sound engineer.

He was on the meet and greet/signing session on Frost and Fire Fest 2015 and he was also supposed too be special guest on Keep It True, but unfortunately it didn’t happen.

Fun Fact

His nickname, Flint, derives from the fact that he fit so well in CU right off the bat. Taken from the goofball Swingin’ Sixties spy flicks starring James Coburn (Our Man Flint and In Like Flint). The real origin dates back to 1943, when the saying In like Flynn, was a reference to swashbuckling star Errol Flynn’s taste for underage poon-tang. That almost ties in with the ol’ Cirith Ungol song Tight Teen, lyrics by the young Robbie Garven (who himself was only in his late teens).

We knew Flint (Michael Vujea) from the band he was in at the time (Possession) and we had allot of double leads going on in our songs that we could not produce live, so we recruited Mike and started calling him Flint because he was โ€œIn like Flintโ€ (the title to an old spy movie with James Coburn).

Our Man Flint (1966)

Our Man Flint is a American spy-fi comedy film that parodies the James Bond film series. The film was directed by Daniel Mann, written by Hal Fimberg and Ben Starr (from a story by Hal Fimberg), and starred James Coburn as master spy Derek Flint. The main premise of the film is that a trio of “mad scientists” attempt to blackmail the world with a weather-control machine. A sequel, In Like Flint, was released the following year, with Coburn reprising his role.
