  • Selling a guitar to a fan for "more than what it cost in the store" sounds EXACTLY like what Gene & Paul would do but, it pisses them off if Vinnie does it.

  • When kiss first took the make up off for this album, rolling stone mag, jokingly said they were ugliers than the inside of an ogers assholw.

  • I was a teenager when kiss was popular and I remember really liking him. And I still feel that positivity. He has a kind of a star quality, it comes from him being so weird and so gifted and so smart. He has turned out some incredible tracks over the years. It's also clear that he struggles to fit in on this planet, and I think that makes a lot of us see ourselves in him. He is quite unique.

  • selling the guitar to a fan that he NEVER PLAYED ON STAGE. That was the real thing that pissed off Paul

  • Vinnie was a talented guitar player and song writer. He made KISS a MUCH HEAVIER band. Creatures of the Night is my favorite album outside of the first 6 studio albums. He co-wrote 14 songs on the two albums of which he was a member of KISS.

    That being said, there has to be a REASON why EVERYONE he played with saying that he was difficult to play with. I don't see an issue with his perfectionism. I don't have a problem with his demanding dedication from the bands he's in. In KISS, he had to realize that he was a hired gun, not a full member. With VVI, he needed to realize that there is a time and place to criticize bandmates.

    I could be in a band with Vinnie because there was a time that I WAS Vinnie. I was the perfectionist who demanded that my bandmates be able to play our music in their sleep… perfectly. I also demanded as much from ME, if not MORE. I suspect that Vinnie was harder on himself than he was on his bandmates. The only way a person gets as good as Vinnie was is by eating, drinking, and sleeping music. Most people don't have that dedication. That is always going to be a problem for those of us who DO.

  • He sold a guitar to a fan for a profit, which the fan paid willing, and that's why you're pissed??
    Did you miss your cut?

  • why is eddie trunk still sucking up to kiss when gene and paul refuse to let him interview them? pathetic

  • Not really the fall of Vinnie. Paul and Gene cut out Ace and Peter too after they contributed to Kiss' rise to international fame. I could speculate about why Paul and Gene take care of each other while backstabbing their bandmates, but if you know anything about them at all, then you already know the answer to that.

  • I don't think he's a brilliant guitarist. Listen to the Creatures tour. The worst solos I've ever heard.

  • I don't know why Vinnies doesn't go back into writing for TV, that's damn good money last time I checked.

  • tl;dr – Gene and Paul are capitalists, Vinnie is a liar and a thief

    To everyone in comments complaining about Gene and Paul being greedy too – Vinnie is worse than Gene and Paul because of his blatantly false advertising. You can think what you want about how much KISS charges for merchandise or VIP packages or etc, but they're going to actually give you what you paid for… unlike Vinnie selling you a guitar he bought a few days ago for double what he paid and claiming it's one of his favorites that he's owned for years and years.

  • The Merry Metal Christmas shows were not cancelled. First of all, there were not a series of MMC shows, there was one at SIR in Nashville. I attended this show and actually got to play drums with Vinnie on Lick it Up (surreal moment for sure). Then he had subsequent shows at SIR in Nashville, but each had its own theme and was not part of the Xmas show.

  • Wow. I remember in Detroit when Vinnie Vincent's Invasion opened for Iron Maiden and got booed off stage in about 20 minutes. Waysted was supposed to be the opener but we got VVI instead for some reason.

  • It's ironic that after the fallout with his band the lead singer, and bassist started a new band, and gained far more success practically overnight, and he kinda became obscure.

    Reply
  • The only thing I know about Vinnie Vincent is he opened for Iron Maiden in Tulsa in 1987.
    That was my first concert ever and I was a Sr in High School.
    I have dinner about once a month with my friend who took me and we always talk about that.
    What an awesome experience!

  • Kiss on their end of the road tour also bought cheap guitars and sold them to the fans for far more than they were worth. They also robbed what they considered fans.
