Creatures Boxset Unboxing Video - Lots of Vinnie

Post by aeroflott »

This is cool.

A few observations/questions.

1. Presumably, Kiss owns Vinnie's likeness, which is why they can feature him so extensively in this boxset?
2. Given Kiss' history with Vinnie has been so fraught over the years, I think its cool that they have included his likeness and photos. Perhaps an acknowledgement to how much hardcore fans from that era appreciated VV's contributions to the band at that time?
3. Does Vinnie have any recompense or income from this sort of thing? Or was that all handed over to Kiss when he lost the lawsuits in the 90s?

I remember that Vinnie at least lost the LIU royalties, but considering the loss it stands to reason that all his KISS contributions were lost to pay his debts. So sad.

It's hard to cover the Creatures era without showing Vinnie, he played the whole tour!!
