New Swedish documentary tries to find Vinnie

Post by lindea »

A newly announced documentary who deals with Kiss from -83 to -95, and how the music industry consumes individuals, will try to find and get an interview with Vinnie. According to this article, they believe they have the contacts to make it happen. It's scheduled to run on Swedish public service broadcaster SVT sometimes in 2017.

It's a newspaper article not an ad. "jakt" and "jagad" mean "hunt" and "hunted".

I googled translate the whole article lol

Swedes hunt for Vinnie Vincent

Melker Becker and Mattias Lind Sheet ( "Howling". "All that was available was okay") makes the SVT a K-Special for KISS. Theme: the unvarnished edition of the group (1983-95), and how the music industry eat people.

One of the "eaten", superlojale guitarist Bruce Kulick, who was thrown out of the band when it reunited in rouged original edition in 1996, involved.

He reveals some really interesting things, says Melker Becker. Moreover chasing we believe may hijälpa us.

Vincent was KISS guitarist 1982-84, the first year rouged like some sort of ancient Egyptian ankh-warriors, and has long been missing. It would be a scoop to find him.

Transmission sometime in 2017, says Melker Becker, on the still untitled, hour-long film. JH

Let me try:
"The Swedes hunt for Vinnie Vincent. Melker Becker and Mattias Lindeblad ("Rundgång", "Alt som fanns var Okej" - two documentaries) are doing an K-Special (documentary) about Kiss for SVT (Swedish public service broadcaster). Topic: The make-up-less version of the band (1983-95) and how the music industry cynically uses people.

One of the "used" persons, super loyal guitarist Bruce Kulick, who was thrown out of the band when it reunited in its original painted form in 1996, participates.

-He reveals some really interesting stuff, says Melker Becker. We're also hunting Vinnie Vincent for an interview. We have the connections which we think can help us.

Vincent was Kiss' guitarist 1982-84, where the first year was in make-up as some sort of egyptian ankh warrior, and have been long missing. It would have been a scoop to find him.

-Release is some time in 2017, says Melker Becker about the yet name-less, one hour documentary."

Would be lovely; but highly unlikely.

Will have some hope, but not too much.

And they just had to use the mugshot...I bet he's pissed seeing that lol

Will be on the lookout all throughout 2017.

Kinda agree with you LL.

Trunk can be annoying as hell and has quite a brown nose from having it up Ace's ring for so long.

If trunk can't get Vinnie to talk then I doubt anyone else can.

I hope they find him. Or at least get a current photo. I hope Vinnie is ok were ever he is. Diane's death anniversary is coming up.

Not so long ago I corresponded with one guy on FB, he wrote me that he lives in Nashville and that Vinnie still lives there too, and you can find him there easily (of course for those who want to find him).

Perhaps VV doesn't want to be found. Even if someone knew exactly where he lived, hope they'd give enough respect to leave him be unless he agreed to be interviewed or whatever else.

If he wants to be in the spotlight again, he will come.

Well the info that PI has discovered is by no means new. No surprise there.

Would still give it a watch although obviously no new VV content.

As a Swede: yep, the metalsludge thing pretty much sums it up, but I actually enjoyed it ( the show) for what it is, it has a different slant to it than the normal rockumentaries does, a bit more matter of fact and humane maybe...the ups and downs of running a band for so many years kinda thing.
Anyway, last word on the show´s ending credits on V is actually that his/her´s (gender unknown) name is actually not Angel..but what it indeed is it does not say, so...Anyway, the guy says if he was ever given the chance to meet "Vincent" he would love to thank V for the music and saving his favorite band back in the early 80s and all that..it´s all cool../Ollie

The facts are that we do not care if Vinnie altered anything about his being. We care that he is happy.
It sounds like this documentary actually spoke with Vinnie via phone and came to a conclusion that Vinnie could very well be living as a woman.
I don't buy the Colorado connection mentioned by a poster at Metal Sludge but anything is possible.
His family seems to still be living near the same area from Vinnie's childhood and I don't see them uprooting now.

Vinnie had a habit of signing off on personal messages as "V".
We know some of his alias names.We have had rumored sitings.
It seems as if Vinnie politely declined being on camera therefore keeping the mystique brewing...
And so it will continue...

I've become comfortable with the high, and most definite possibility, that us fans will never see nor hear from VV again.
While the whole possible transititioning thing did come as a surprise...I don't care as long as he is happy; as I'm sure that is all fans' top priority - his happiness and well being.
So until whatever happens next, we wait.
