New Guitar World Issue: Paul/Gene Rate KISS Guitarists...
Will be interested to read what they have to say about Vinnie...
In the April-14 issue of Guitar World magazine, guitarist Paul Stanley and bassist Gene Simmons celebrate their upcoming Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction, with a pair of revealing interviews about their 40 years in Kiss. Also, Stanley and Simmons rate Kiss guitarists past and present: from Ace to Tommy Thayer.

This should be interesting.
Looks like Paul is wearing a new/different wig?

Oh yeah, those are Destroyer costumes. I figured they would have done a recent photo shoot for this.

Vinnie is their #1 guitarist and #1 songwriter but somehow I have a feeling they wont admit it..
Re: New Guitar World Issue: Paul/Gene Rate KISS Guitarists..
My gut tells me they will say he was talented but that he had issues.
I just hope they are over comparing Mark to an angry bee, that was uncalled for.

No way is that Paul from the 70s! Gene has a full chestplate too! He only started wearing one in more recent times.Genebaby wrote:Oh yeah, those are Destroyer costumes. I figured they would have done a recent photo shoot for this.
Promises made, crying in vain, all empty. Never accepting the blame and not letting go of the shame. A river of tears, as months turn to years, all wasted. On someone not willing to change.Now only a shadow remains!

Great fuck'en song. Awesome guitar playing & killer solo.
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.

Re: New Guitar World Issue: Paul/Gene Rate KISS Guitarists..
I stopped at the bookstore today and flipped through this magazine.
I love that there was a small live LIU shot(with Vinnie) in Paul's article.
The small picture of Vinnie for the RATING section had him represented in makeup.
COTN and LIU were spoken highly of.
Vinnie's character was called the "Ankh" in the article by, I believe, Paul.
Both Paul and Gene were VERY complimentary on the topic of Vinnie's playing and of course said his personality was shitty.
Gene said that Vinnie has sued and lost 14 times. He said Vinnie's time in KISS was torture.
Gene , however, put a compassionate spin on it by saying that he doesn't wish Vinnie's life on anyone because Vinnie has went through A LOT in his life. (This obviously not counting the latest tragedy )
Gene said it was sad that Vinnie couldn't realize the opportunity that he had.
Gene called Vinnie "a sneaky guy " because Vinnie came to dinner with him and EVH... BLA BLA BLA
I'm sure no one minded Vinnie's company at the time. In fact, Vinnie loaned an instrument to EVH before this instance (I believe it was YEARS before this ).
I believe that they look on their time with Vinnie with different shades of regret.
Sad for Vinnie and also sad that KISS lost his talent.
As for their opinion on Mark, BOTH OF THEM WERE VERY HARSH AND WERE THE CRUELEST I HAVE EVER HEARD THEM SPEAK OF A FORMER KISS GUITARIST.

I've not been able to find a copy of this mag and can't seem to find online what was said. I've read a couple of times now in different forums that their comments are appalling.....could someone paraphrase what they said?As for their opinion on Mark, BOTH OF THEM WERE VERY HARSH AND WERE THE CRUELEST I HAVE EVER HEARD THEM SPEAK OF A FORMER KISS GUITARIST

Well Aren't You lucky We Got Your Back Vinnie. The big bad wolf isn't going to stay too much bad shit about you cause they are aware of the domino effect the VVFF can have. Lucky boy VV to have such loyal legend of fans/'experts'.
And if you think of it, if only you'd been a little cooler, how much more you could have had.
You could have easily sold 100 tee shirts through this forum. You would have more than likely sold your GFH demo to people that already have them download. Man, what a shame it is that it' s turned out like this.
