From Metal Sludge:
SLUDGE: Vinnie Vincent?
MICHAEL: He had the craziest demands when we did his tour in 1996. He felt that some crazed Ace Frehley fan was gonna try to hurt or kill him. So he requested security and body guards at all the shows. At one of the shows in Holland he wanted to do his signing in the ticket booth. A little tiny space with the window and a little slot to hand his autograph through. The hole was so small people couldn’t get their albums signed as they wouldn’t fit. He was very paranoid. Also, on one of the drives he fell asleep on the bus, and his wig moved. When he woke up, it was turned a little to the side and everyone was laughing. By this time he was a total asshole to everyone, and refused to ride on the bus anymore after the wig incident so he had a driver for himself or took a flight.
