I have to wonder if he's got the same policy going on with that Facebook group you have to pay $200 to join.

Best reply :

Nobody tells me what to do with my account, not you, not anyone. If you demand this, then just delete my account.

Instead of this bs. get a verified account, that way WE know you are the real one... For all we know you could be a fake.

The entertainment value of his weird ass cult, and the alternate reality VV lives in, absolutely surpasses anything he has done musically.

Always a Vinnie fan!!

My guess is that something unfortunate happened to him via a fake profile….but who knows.

Vin doesn’t typically do things without reason, and if something went sideways on him, he is probably just trying to avoid it happening again.

Long live the wiz!!!

Nope, KingBrian is a certified disciple. Any lie (where's the box set?) or dumb thing VV does or says cannot be due to any imperfection on the part of VV. If Vanessa brought out 'special kool-aid' to drink at one of his/her gatherings, Brian would be at the front of the queue to gulp it right down.

This is pretty accurate!

Though I WOULD be pissed about the box set if I ordered one back in the day. Thankfully, there was no kool-aid at either of the gatherings I attended (though the food selection at the second one was not up to the standard of the first one).

But every interaction I have had with Vinnie has been great, and those two VVI albums are classics, IMO.

You Went to 2 of them?

We’re they both in that same rehearsal room? What was the draw of the second, once you had already been to one?
We’re they both $500? What did you spend on extras at the event?

We’re the pinwheels and potato soup tasty?

Vinnie is notorious for creating sock puppet accounts. He had plenty on KISSFaq.

What went sideways with Vinnie is him being impossible to work with. Getting kicked out of KISS, and then kicked our of his own band - and then two of those guys form a band on the heels of Invasion and became successful with a 3x platinum album.

Shafting fans with a box set, selling guitars he claimed to have played on stage, ripping off a guy who made some sig series VV guitars, Vinnie took off with them, never paid the guy AFAIK. He burned some guy who did a KISS Expo in Sweden in 1996, and was impossible to work with (hilarious read if you can find it).

He only co-write one album, Lick It Up.

He only co-wrote three songs on Creatures. Bryan Adams, Jim Vallance and Adam Mitchell all have bigger balls than Vinnie on that album.

Yep. Been twice.

The first one was the Merry Metal Xmas Jam. This was the better one of the two. I loved this event. Vinnie played (acoustic day one, electric day 2), and he was very excited about the event. Food was great, people were great. I got to play drums with VV on Lick it Up.

The sound one was post-covid. I forget the name of it something with freedoms in the title I believe. One day event. VV played an electric set. Food was less good but okay, and of the two, I had more fun at the first. Still great people and a great time.

Yes, I shelled out the $500 each time. Worth it.

The damn pinwheels…poor Nina took (and is still taking) an online pounding over those. She was just trying to help Vinnie put on the event. She is an absolute sweetheart and I was not at that event.

The only excuse for dropping $500 on multiple VV events is that you make extremely good money or born into wealth. Otherwise, you just sound like a lunatic.
I can't even justify $150 to see my favorite band and I feel like I make a decent salary.

Ha! I was definitely NOT born into money....but I wish I was. I do okay. BUT, I am also on the slight younger side of being a KISS fan, as I'm 49 now. I discovered KISS during the Crazy Nights era, so long after VV's departure and after the implosion of VVI...so I never got to see him play live. Once I heard he showed up and played at the prior birthday party event, I was all in for the Xmas jam. I wanted to see that at least once in-person, and he delivered. There were quite a few similar events between the two I attended that I didn't go to, but I have friends that, between them all, were at all of them. The second one I attended was supposed to be the last one (though there ended up being another after this one....the infamous pinwheels). But, especially for the first one, when you factor in that it was two full days and included food, drink, alcohol, etc., it wasn't a bad deal.

Also, I am guilty of flying down for CreaturesFest and buying a one-day pass for day VV performed. I didn't want to miss his first public performance in all those years.

This is where the division sits between Vinnie Vincent and the REST of the world.

Countless people, and even more who are musicians and entertainers, and those who dare I say, are famous, has had this happen to them.

Tons of fake profiles is a common occurrence on social media.

But, out of ALL the people, who have ever had this happen.... name 1 other person than Vinnie Vincent who demanded their Fans, Followers or Friends show an ID.

Answer = Not a F#@king one.

Anyone making excuses for his behavior is as crazy as he is! #facts

You know the quality (and quantity) of top shelf hookers he could have bought with $ he spent on the 3 Vin shows he went to, including flights and lodging? We're even talking plenty of $ for some blow to share with them as well and a nice hotel to bang them in!

Wait, what am I saying? For all we know King Brian is loaded and did the Vin shows and the hookers and coke later on at night after the concerts!! He is a king, after all...
