We really do live in the Matrix. Last week I was watching the The Life and Death of Peter Sellers. I noticed that he married Britt Ekland. I did a Wikipedia search on Britt Ekland & read that, ' From 1979-1981 she dated and became engaged to Girl frontman and future L.A. Guns singer Phil Lewis'
So last Monday, I telling my Wife how Britt Ekland was married to Peter sellers & was engaged to Phil Lewis. As soon as I said it, I had a look on my FB Wall on my iPad & look what pops up!

No Shit! Freaky! The MaTriX!

I had NO idea Phil dated Britt, that's crazy!

Was Vinnie already crazy by this stage, or just after Kiss?

Ahh, it's times like this that while I took the old page down, I saved everything.

To my knowledge, and from my research, the only Happy Days related song that I could ever find featuring Vinnie is as follows. I'm not saying for certain that he never had a song on Happy Days, but I only found a total of one song and it was from the Happy Days spin-off, "Joanie Loves Chachi".

"Our Love Was Meant To Be" - Written by Bennet Salvay/Vincent Cusano

It was from the episode "One on One" which originally aired on ABC October 21, 1982 at 8:00 P.M.

[Genebaby]

Cool, thanks Pyro, this is the first time I've heard of an actual song and episode Vinnie was involved in.

[PyroMessiah]

Much like everything with Vinnie, it seems everything is bigger than it is, including his involvement with "Happy Days.".

[doublev2]

i tried to track down that episode a few years back.

[doublev2]

well guess what.. I just contacted Bennet Salvay.

[doublev2]

My guess he was in house like he said but not in writing capacity, only guitar player. I could be wrong. I just looked through about 10 episodes and no one of the song titles in the credits were credited to Cusano. Bennet Salvay was music supervisor so it looks like he wrote with Vinnie that lone tune. Again my guess is VV was only a session musician for these shows and not a writer. Makes me think again about how good of a song writer he was in the 70s and early 80s. It seems like his songwriting only started to click just before he joined kiss unless people think the tunes he wrote with Treasure were good tunes.

[doublev2]

i guess from 2.53 this is vv on guitar [youtube][/youtube]

[PinkWiz]

Ugh, Happy Days "jumped the shark" but Joanie Loves Chaci was devoured in a feeding frenzy...

[poserboy71]

I'm sure Vinnie has some really cool stories and photos from this time.

[erg2]

The perfect stuff for a book, Vinnie. How about you write about your experiences? YOUR side of the stories. Give some of the dirt and some of the behind the scenes stories. Refer to Ace's book for how NOT to write a memoir.

[doublev2]

It's hard to believe his stories but it would be cool.
Love to.hear details if happy days etc.
Why doesn't he get his book out? Plenty of music book publishers would put it out.. ohh just remembered... He woukd ask for a million bucks upfront.

[Portillo]

ohh just remembered... He woukd ask for a million bucks upfront.

And wouldnt write the book.

Hilariously sad and true.

[doublev2]

he was working on a book in the 90s but 20 years on still nothing.

So was Peter. And 30 short years later, it's just about to be released.

[doublev2]

Yeah.. peter's book was announced in 1987 as 'a face without a kiss'.
Vv said he would reveal the real reason Eric Carr died in his which I think would be interesting . I dont have any idea what vinnie was suggesting.

[Genebaby]

What the heck would Vinnie know about it?

[PelagicJoe]

Vv said he would reveal the real reason Eric Carr died in his which I think would be interesting . I dont have any idea what vinnie was suggesting.

When did he say this?

[erg2]

Ya know what...I think I remember this, but shrugged it off as Vinnie being "bitter".

All head stocks point in one direction

All the better to poke you with... I <3 the look on Vinnie's face.
