The Vinnie Vincent Forum - Where Freedom Rocks!

yeah, weird that for 2 years, 3 songs from revenge were not accesible, and then in the last month.... all 3 have been "released"..

where will this be heard live. Something interesting coming from the world of spotify. For a LONG time, the Revenge songs that VV co-wrote were totally and completely unplayable. Now, out of nowhere they are. So, to speculate.... VV may have won a *small* victory in the KISS saga.

i take *CAPSLOCK* phrasing to always mean yelling or shouting. No offense taken. I just want make sure I am clear in that I *don't care* what VV does in his bedroom, living room or where ever. So, if i came off as pithy, or pissy, sorry. I just have a hard time communicating sometimes. That said, I ...

roustabout23

theres no need to shout at me. Im just like you, posting and replying a thread, on a forum owned by someone i still have a considerable measure of respect for in spite of guitars, box sets or wtfe is going around. whether or not it matters, I felt I needed to say it.

roustabout23

thats my point, Ive been trolling as it were here for a long time, reading and learning the lay of the land. I cant say ive seen more than maybe 2 or 3 posts here (with all the aliases etc) that I can say I think are/were VV since 2010/2011 or so... the auction,.. but that didn't actually happen.

roustabout23

if vinnie wants to be valerie, vanessa or whatever I don't care! I just want to see him move on from that, and be who he needs wants to be. All I see in the photo indicative of any injury is a band aid... did i not see something?

roustabout23

all joking and sarcasm aside, Seriously, I want nothing more for VV than him to be happy. It would be nice to hear some tunes from him, either new, or archival. I don't think at this late date, the speed would be the same, but go ahead and shred VV. That said, if he is receiving psychological care, ...

in the 80s, it was very common to take guitar tracks and feed them into an eventide harmonizer for octave doubling/harmony...

roustabout23

I have no doubt its vinnies writing.. The epicness of this story (from 2000 to present) would make a great movie. The Vinnie Vincent Story is among the most unique in all of R&R history. Just unimaginably bizarre! Can't make this stuff up.
What is the back story? Where was it found? WHEN?!?

So, vinnie, tell us what you have been up to?

That's actually not too far off from my first rig. except, I had the snazzy sampling Casio keyboard.

I for one cannot dismiss the notion, that Vincent Cusano may no longer be of this world. His Ego would *not* let him remain silent... this long.... Either Deceased, OR incarcerated. Looking up death records, there is a John Cusano (shown as 89) that worked for Kissfaq, Vinnie Vincent Invasion etc be...

roustabout23

that was my thought, and *all* the stuff that is vinnie related currently, coming from upstate new york per youtube. this just seemed like the most likely place to post it, rather than start a new thread.

roustabout23

I am still skeptical. it seems from my digging around on here he was last heard from sometime about 3 or 4 years ago, the auction came and went without fanfare of any kind... ego like his, wouldn't let him stay this quiet for this long.

roustabout23

interesting... really a weird tale still unfolding here...

roustabout23

id love to be able to digitize the stuff that is around. It would be a true labor of love for someone like me, with a 64 track home studio, and no projects currently going on. As for mental illnesses, I wager to say Vinnie might have a few things going on. OCD would explain a LOT of his obsessivenes...

Yes indeed. I have to tell the voices to fuck off about 23857 times a day. I have to force myself to pick up my bass sometimes. I see the auction appears to be done, and likely sold out. if he got what it appears, he might be gearing up for something. I hope so. World needs a real guitar player righ...

roustabout23

So, it appears that the auction has cleared and sold out? If the prices were as advertised, he may have just pulled a nice little nest egg together... enough to maybe do a record? Hmmmmm.... I hope that is what is going on.

*randomly unrelated thought* I would LOVE to hear a VV/Prince collaboration.

I caught that right after i posted. oops.

If KISS would do the SMART thing, and do a true and proper retirement, they would do a show unlike any other (would only be possible in massive stadiums, but for a KISS retirement, it could only be that way. 3 stages, one building. Start on a stage that is the alive I era stage, with the candles, an...

RIP eric. The KISSworld misses your playing and you personally. Thanks for showing us what can be done in a short time in life, and making KISS thunder for a decade plus.

Here are my thoughts, now that I am not cloudy from a few drinks last night. COTN would still have been a good album, BUT the tour tanked. They lied in bold face to defraud polygram records whose contract stated it MUST be Gene, Paul, and Ace to be considered a full KISS album. They lied to their fa...

Start Me Up. great tune, great shred.

roustabout23

From a selfish business perspective, Kiss thought they were being smart and frugal. G&P were trying to buy expensive steak and lobster but pay dollar menu prices. They fucked themselves and the fans and have lived on their past(73-83) with little acknowledgement of other albums ,since they put the ...

roustabout23

Hello. Let us know your take on what kiss did to vinnie? I don't see that they did anything wrong but always good to see different angles So, KISS needed a new lead player. One that could help them get out of a songwriting rut. Someone with some flash, some balls and some flashy playing to compete ...

roustabout23

I think that is pretty close to the probably reality of the situation. I think it was a combination of a few factors that lead to KISS not sinking. The removal of the makeup was the biggest aspect of that. They actually were awesomely good at keeping it all under wraps! MTV virtually took KISS under...

roustabout23

I think the KISS shreds is probably the best as far as total song and lyric reconstruction, but my favorite is the rolling stones shreds just because of the laugh track/sitcom feel at the beginning.

roustabout23

I get where he is coming from. It is a very wordy way of saying: We should have bought Peter and Ace out back in 1981, when they quit, but we didn't because we were very cash poor. So, we created new characters. Now, that Ace and Peter sold it to us, it makes perfect sense to keep using these iconic...
