Media attention
Maybe its just me but there seems to be a lot of news articles about this whole thing
Re: Media attention
Well, when an ex-Kiss member does stuff like this it becomes news. Even more so in today's internet world.
I can only imagine the fuss the fake Peter Criss homeless guy would have gotten had it happened today.

Re: Media attention
The story (Vincent's) actually made a national newspaper in the UK which is pretty suprising :

Nothing new, but they did use a cool early Vincent/Kiss picture!

Re: Media attention
Most of the news is coming from newsfeeds attached to tmz. I think only two written stories and a partial wriiten one in the rockpages.com
Re: Media attention
If VV walks away from this, does anyone think he can use this media attention to relaunch his career?
Re: Media attention
If he does it quickly I think it may help actually. But in 6 months people will have forgotten.
Re: Media attention
But he will charge $150 per cd and no one will buy. His comment about Speedball jamm selling for $100 is wrong. It lists for that but no one buys it.
Re: Media attention
I'm surprised at the coverage too, I honestly thought he was no longer news worthy, but I guess it's the nature of the arrest and the dog thing that makes people curious about it. Sad thing is it's more weird showbiz gossip than news.
Even my 15 yr old daughter told me she'd seen it on the news, and she has no interest in Kiss at all other than what she hears from me.

"The public's a bunch of assholes." - Charles Manson.
The above quote is interesting because 1) it's largely correct, and 2) was stated by a madman. Just because someone's crazy doesn't mean they're always wrong. And, conversely, just because someone's allegedly NOT crazy doesn't make them right.
I'm just waiting for the next time Ace is in the news (probably for his book release?) and someone'll say, "Wait, didn't he just beat up his wife and kill all his dogs?" Everyone gets shit wrong ALL the time, even casual "fans" are too dumb to know what's what.
All the best,

"We got the bubbleheaded bleach-blonde, comes on at 5
She can tell you about the plane crash with a gleam in her eye
It's interesting when people die, give us dirty laundry
Can we film the operation? Is the head dead yet?
You know the boys in the newsroom got a running bet
Get the widow on the set, we need dirty laundry
You don't really need to find out what's going on
You don't really want to know just how far it's gone
Just leave well enough alone, keep your dirty laundry
Kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em when they're down
Kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em when they're down"

"His most recent interaction with fans was to take over a forum at their invitation, only to berate them for their comments, say the lack of any new material was their fault, then shut down the forum."
Settle the f*ck down, monkey tits!
Re: Media attention
I wonder who spoke to them about the board. He got that part spot on. Part of my condition was when I gave him the domain it was going to be used for the fans instead of locked away, another broken promise. He always shows his full colors.
