This is some great stuff with KISS at a Record Signing of LICK IT UP.
Of course, it's very exciting to see Vinnie.

Awesome! This is how the band should have stayed, what a line-up.

It also goes to show, that the fans they had during the COTN and LIU era were TRUE fans. They were rabid and loved the band, just lower in number than when little kids "liked" them.

Very cool footage! Paul looks good all seems to be all right. Gene is hungry like every day (look at him now, he he). Eric with sunglasses (the sun is always shining for rockstars) and Vinnie dressed in leather...
This line up was for me KISS. These were my childhood days. True music true fans - I miss these times....

I couldn't agree with you guys more...
Classic lineup, & killer songs.
Totally reminds me of my childhood.
Vinnie & Eric challenged Gene & Paul to be better musicians.

Ditto!

Pity Vinnie didn't swallow a little pride (and G & P too) and stay together making great albums for years and years! Vinnie could have got his rocks off shred wise with solo releases while still staying in the band! Ah, to go back in time..................

Now that would have been smart and think of all the great music that we could have all enjoyed!

I don't believe G&P would have let Vinnie have solo albums AND stay in Kiss. If that were the case ,I don't think they would have had a problem with Vinnie having his signature Jackson guitar while he was in the band. At that point in Kisstory,they obviously vetoed anything that would let anyone but them shine. Gene and Paul were in competition with each other and didn't want any more competitors in the game.

Yes. No solo album for vinnie. They didn't even let Bruce or Eric do session work for others.

Sorry. They didn't let Eric play on ace's record but Bruce did do some guest work on his brothers record 'skull'

and Eric and Vinnie play on the album from Wendy O'Williams. I didn't know any more the exactly tracks but they did it sure!!

Has anyone seen this already?



Very cool video. I wish I was there.

Yes, I believe most of us have seen this but have never put a link up to it. Good eye Gravi !!!

I had never seen that before. Wonder what was on the floor that Vinnie was so interested for.

Everyone insert their bad jokes here.

I've merged these two threads as they are about the same footage.
