- Vinnie was (still is? Who knows.) an amazing guitarist
- Vinnie wrote some wonderful music and lyrics during the 80s
- Vinnie appears to have been the catalyst for getting KISS focused again in the 80s and generating (what I think) was the most cohesive KISS album in the entire catalog
- Vinnie has stolen from fans and colleagues
- Vinnie assaulted his wife
- Vinnie continues to lie and try to cover up his immoral and unscrupulous actions
If there was only HATE, this forum would not exist. There would be only an online petition asking for signatures for people who had money stolen from them by the pretend company, Metaluna Records in hopes of instigating some form of remuneration.
Spot on! I have to say that my view of Mr Cusano has changed drasticly the last couple of months I've spent over here. We have all felt the rage of the Wiz, we have all seen what he thinks and writes about us.
If Gene and Paul did the same thing to thier fans, they would smash all thier KISS-albums into the wall right away! I don't think any fan of any band could stand that kind of ungreatful treatment.
Still, I'm sitting here wearing my VVI-shirt listening to "Full shred". I think that says a lot about who is a real fan or who is not! Vinnie, if you read this. I'm not here because I hate you!
Accurate and well put. This is not a hate board . Countless oportunities for vinnie to address the big issues yet he doesn't. A simply sorry would have worked but that's too brave a word for him to use.
Yes, we deal in truths, something you find on all message boards. Vinnie does not like the truth, he can't handle it. Well, it's out there and it's not going away.
It is too bad he can't get past the insecurities of his past and move forward. Every time he hits the keyboard he makes it worse. He is spreading lies and innuendo, it's really, really sad.
Gene used to be really against the internet, forums & message boards because he knew he was losing the control over the "truth". He still bashes it, but I think he and the band have embraced the internet and used it to their advantage.
Something to think about Vincent.

Anyone wanna bet $500 that the "OFFICIAL VINNIE VINCENT WEBSITE" (note the all caps per Vinnie's style of writting) doesn't happen?! If it does, I'll be surprised.
Holy crap, something ACTUALLY happening, in just 2 days? And from Vinnie?
Wow. The fan in me is "awesome", but the other side of me is saying "Yeah, get ready for NOTHING at all!"
You know the worst thing about this? Although I won't pay the annual fee for the 4 songs he's promising (or so I've heard), since they seem to be from his old stuck we all have listened to before (once again, SO I'VE HEARD) if he even MANAGES to self-record several tunes, if he even remotely MANAGES to pull off something, ANYTHING new (that, you know, is not less or equal to 4 songs)
You know what? I WOULD pay the 500 bucks, in all due honestly.

No way in hell would I pay even one-tenth of that for a full disc of tunes.
His prices are absurd. Most people in this country and all over the world don't have jobs (including Vinnie) and he has the nerve to ATTEMPT to gouge people like this ??? Fuck him.

Well, I dunno. It's only one pay for year, and if the songs keep pouring (yes, I know I'm being WAY TOO POSITIVE about it) during that year, you know what? That wouldn't be half bad.
Then again, I admit I made a mistake. $500 seems to be a bit too much for anything Vinnie related.

No guaranty your going to get those songs either. He may make it like health insurance that you can't claim on certain procedures until you've been with them at least 6 months. You may not be entitled to the the privilege of having those songs unless you have been in the fan club for more than two years.
I got Jesus in my fax machine. I saw Ho Chi Minh down @ Burger King. I dated Vinnie Vincent as a Drag Queen. I still don't understand a f**kin' thing. I have come here to chew bubble gum and kick ass and I'm all out of bubble gum.
8/17/11 update! In my opinion these are disgusting individuals who should be barred from the internet. One day action will be taken against these individuals for harassment and cyberstalking."
Can someone send Vinnie this and have him fill it out?!

IF there was a situation where as artist I truly loved was going to release a song every week and maybe the occasional video and some "fan club" swag for $500 a year, I would seriously consider signing up. However, having been burnt by Vinnie on the boxset, there is NO WAY for me to trust him and pony up the cash. Maybe if I hear he is making it actually happen, I would consider it.
