@VeloceRafter Vinnie lives in a southern state with his new wife. He lost all the lawsuits against Kiss for royalties for the 8 out of 10 hit songs he wrote while with the band & filed bankrupcty. In 1999, his 1st wife was abducted by a homeless man & found dead in 2000. I worked with this band on the VVI album & spent some time talking to Vinnie. He's a really great guy & absolutely not the egomaniac Gene Simmons made him out to be. Enough was enough for him & I can't say that I blame him.

Anyone know who this SugarBear dude is???? Don't think it's Vinnie though! He"s posted on some varied sites but they are always about music? One was site was about the BP oil spill in the Gulf and he commented on the music in the clip???

No idea. Can you send him a message via You Tube?

I would like to believe that Vinnie is not a bad person as is rumored . Until he makes a statement though, he will be stuck with that nasty reputation.

Who knows if it is Vinnie or not. I'm tired of wondering how many times that I've exchanged posts with him on THIS forum.

a statement doesn't change anything, he has his hands tied because he is keeping everything from kiss and other people who think he owes money to them. Its a tough situation that always comes back to haunt him. So for him to do anything 'official' is not so easy in many ways. Some say its Kiss's fault and some say its Vinnie.

Vinnie needs to build his reputation over a few years.. not just in a statement while he is trying to sell guitars through a third party.

He might end up in the clink with Wesley Snipes if he's not careful disclosing the mulah he could make???
