Thats the way it should be. Thanks for your opinions everyone.

Maybe, but its in the top 5 most visited websites on the Internet.

Portillo

The best sources in this case would be Kiss books. Does anyone here have all the Kiss books that mention Vinnie?

Portillo

Unless your band is notable and has reliable sources from media outlets, theres not much chance they're going to allow it.

Portillo

Shes a beaut.

Portillo

I want to improve Vinnies Wikipedia page. Add more information, photos etc. So basically what we need are references from Kiss books like Kiss and Tell etc. Properly sourced information not just gossip articles. Also, if anyone can upload a photo of Vinnie taken on their personal camera, that would ...

Portillo

I dont hold any hope that he will release new music so theres no stress about that.

Portillo

Vinnie looks great when hes holding his guitar.

Too bad the goverment doesnt follow those rules.

Was it Vinnies decision to write that "no pedals, outboard gear or synthesizers were used anywhere on the album"?

Genebaby wrote:You may have seen a guitarist facing his amp before too.

Yeah I probably have, although Ive never heard it as awesome as on Invasion. It would have been great to have 10 more Invasion albums, all with crazy sounds.

Portillo

I didnt do that on purpose. I must of quoted this and deleted the wrong name. Witness the failed guitar collection and the $1000 guitar pick as evidence Vinnie is out of touch with demand and reality. I guess if a pick can be $1000 then $9000 for a guitar (sans case of course) is realistic. In the w...

But how is guitar feedback done? The Wikipedia article wasnt too helpful.

More proof that Vinnie is crazy.

How does Vinnie do that guitar sound at the end of the song Invasion?

I like when he wails on a guitar.

Cusano got a shot at something none of us ever will, fucked that first shot up in Kiss, got a second chance in Kiss and pissed that one away, then got a third shot with VVI and shit that down the drain. If they ever write a biography of Vinnie, thats all they are going to need to write. Short book ...

Portillo

People give him crap for sucking up to Gene and Paul, but thats who he works for, to me he just comes off grateful to be able to do what he loves and make a very nice living at it. When joining Kiss I think you have to accept that Gene and Paul are the bosses. They have been hugely successful Jewis...

Portillo

I understand that Kiss werent that popular in the 80s but didnt they still sell 12 million albums?

Portillo

This article says that Vinnie was paid $2,000-a-week during his time with Kiss. Is that true?

Portillo

it was funny because all the thrash bands loved Kiss. I remember Megadeth played with them at some festivalin the 80s and all they could talk about is how much they loved Kiss but the Megadeth fans all hated them. Alot of thrash band members were inspired to play guitar and start a band after seein...

But he wouldnt of sent one out even if someone bought one.

Portillo

Been viewing this board for months.But never been compelled to post. Been a fan of Vinnies since he joined Kiss. I have to say that if he is keeping his word and sending out catalogues, signed as described, then fair play to Vinnie. Maybe tunes will find a way to us soon. Thanks for posting the lin...

PM sent.

The end is near perhaps?

Portillo

Is it pathetic that we are all desperate to see a catalogue?

Portillo

Yeah he fluffed around too long and is caught in a spyders web of lies and cover ups spanning from years of spending most waking hours looking at the internet . Something is stopping him from putting out and making music that no one can figure out. I am sure vv blames his own fans and kiss. He know...

Portillo

The idea that Vinnie is remixing and mastering GFH is disheartening. This is an album that was recorded nearly 20 years ago. How much more remixing and mastering could it need? Also, and this is strictly MY OPINION, the bootlegs of GFH I have tracked down that sounded the best were the ones that we...

Portillo

I hope Vinnie goes on a exercise regime before the show to get rid of excess fat.

Thanks. I thought it was the one holding the guitar.

A: No, he's only seen pictures.

Sorry to bump the thread, but this made me laugh for some reason.

Portillo

Is this her?

Portillo

PinkWiz wrote:Yes by the early 90's people started realizing Cusano was a liability.

He should of become a solo artist. Or were the record labels afraid that he would simply take their money and not release anything?

Alot of people hate Simmons, but for me he comes off as an nice, funny, smart and successful guy.

Does anyone have a photo of Diane?

Maybe they will call it quits soon. But theres no doubt that for 60 year olds, they are in pretty good shape. I can just imagine my parents on stage.

Portillo

Just curious.

Portillo

The song is great. Isnt it a song that has been a part of their setlist since it came out?

Portillo

Vinnie didnt really live up to his lyrics did he.

The boyz are gonna rock
WE'RE NEVER GONNA STOP
The boyz are gonna rock
We'll take it to the top
UNTIL THE DAY WE DROP
The boyz are gonna rock

This is a very friendly and welcoming forum. I am very happy to be here!
