Now this looks a fitting tribute to Vinnie, and just wanted to show courtesy by saying hello from England.
Seen Vinnie on the UK leg of the LIU Tour, PHENOMONAL guitarist.
I have a few questions for Vinnie experts, so let me get over this introduction......then I'll fry your minds with questions!
I have a lot of VV pics from various music magazines that I will scan and upload over the next few days!

New pics are always welcome. Great introduction.

I heard that Paul said that was one of the all time best kiss show.. Or at least one show he did at that venue. Actually maybe it was unmasked tour he mentioned

Yes, Bingley Hall is a huge shed.
Paul loved the show from September 1980 Unmasked tour, which he has commented on previously.
The LIU show was very good, but NEVER understood why Paul had a solo guitar spot.........he was limited. Simmons 'vampire' bass solo was decent with him walking over the amps. Erics solo was very good, but Vinnies was amazing, it really was.
I recall the opening song was 'Creatures' followed by 'Detroit', the only other songs I remember were Firehouse with Simmons fire breathing, and I Love it Loud. It WAS 30 years ago.

Great. I have gotten access to a never seen pro recording from Poole uk on that tour. I was going to sell tapes and negs to gene but if can raise some cash we may see if we can get it out as a bootleg but lots of money involved. If it goes to gene it may never be seen.
Bye Bye
