Re: Ace and Bruce to play WITH Vinnie during his show!
Is it possible that Vinnie is FINALLY going to deliver something good and real for the fans? Bringing in Ace, Peter and Bruce is masterful. Vinnie, on his own, is no longer capable of drawing enough interest. But add these guys - now we've got something real. I hope the show rocks!!!

Re: Quiet Times at VV Forums
I think KISS still owns Vinnie's makeup. Would that be why he changes it slightly when he wears it now?
They probably still own Eric's too.
KISS owns everything and everyone, lmao.
