Decibel Geek Podcast bjuder på några opublicerade bilder med Vinnie Vincent:

Batch of Unpublished Vinnie Vincent Photos Surfaces

A former die-hard fan of Vinnie Vincent has supplied us with some amazing previously-unpublished photos that may have come from the former KISS guitarist’s personal collection.

Only wanting to be identified as ”vvjunkie”, this former fan claims to have fallen out of favor with the Ankh Warrior after she made comments on a message board that, despite being set up as a fan forum, is considered enemy ground by the guitarist with its open discussion of all things Vinnie Vincent. After receiving a ban from Vinnie’s official forum (and not wanting to shell out $500.00 for the new forum) she has decided to share these photos from his inner-sanctum.

Early Musical Years (1970′s)

For those that don’t know, Vinnie was known by his real name of Vincent Cusano back in the 1970’s when he worked/performed with such artists as Edgar Winter, Dan Hartman, Felix Cavaliere, and recent Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee Laura Nyro. This photo appears to be from around that time.

Creatures of the Night Era (1982/1983)

Finding new photos of Vinnie’s days in KISS makeup is quite difficult these days as his time in the Ankh Warrior makeup was so limited. This photo definitely appears to be from the guitarists personal collection and may even be a test shot used to help “get into character” for future photo shoots and performances.

Lick It Up/Invasion Era (1983-1986)

It’s debatable what era the 2 studio shots originate from. These 2 shots could be during the recordings of Creatures, Lick It Up, or even one of the Invasion albums. Anyone with specific knowledge of the date and location of these photos is encouraged to comment. The ”glamour” shot us unquestionably from the Invasion era. Much discussion of the Vinnie Vincent Invasion can be found on the Rik Fox segment of Part 1 of the 2-part Vinnie Vincent special that we premiered last July.

The 1990′s & Beyond

This final photo appears to be from Vinnie’s mid-90′s KISS Expo tour of Europe. You can hear the detailed account of one of the tour’s organizers, Alexx Michael of Shameless, in Part 2 of the 2-Part Vinnie Vincent Special that we premiered last July.

We’d like to now announce that there will be a Part 3 and possibly a Part 4 to the Vinnie Vincent Series that we started last year. We thought that we had tapped the well dry but have come to hearn many new things over recent months. We’ve had meaningful discussions with people from Vinnie’s early days all the way to new revelations of current activities of the former KISS guitarist that will surely surprise you (or maybe not depending on your perspective). Keep track of the show on this site as more information will be coming in the new year. Stay tuned!

Då var det dags för en ny PodKisst, PodKISSt #48“Rock and Roll Over” Turns 35!

It’s an album referred to by some fans as a “perfect” KISS record. It was an attempt by KISS to harness their live power on a studio release. It’s 10 tracks of pure, unadulterated KISS. It’s “Rock and Roll Over,” and it’s 35 years old! To celebrate the birthday of this KISS Army favorite, we’re bringing you over 3 hours (!) of roundtable discussion, vintage interviews, track-by-track commentary, and live rarities! Join Ken, Gary, Joe Casey, and some of their PodKISSt pals for a larger-than-life installment of PodKISSt, guaranteed to make you feel “AH-AH, AH-AH, YEAH!”

Join us as we dive into side 2 of this KISStoric record, with more of the commentary and rare KISS audio you wanna hear… right here on PodKISSt!

Our celebration of 35 years of “Rock and Roll Over” continues with a trip back to the mid-1970′s, as we re-construct the story of this beloved record using rare, vintage interview clips and fantastic live tracks! It’s what you’ve come to expect from PodKISSt, the KISS fanzine for your ears!

Då var det dags för en ny PodKisst, PodKISSt #47 The Voice of “Alive II” Speaks!

PodKISSt is coming at you for July 2011 with a fantastic new interview you won’t hear anywhere else! Ken and Mike got a chance to chat with the great Eddie Balandas. Eddie is known to the KISS Army as the booming voice you hear at the start of “Alive II,” and he was kind enough to share his insights from life on the road with KISS at the height of their 1970′s stardom! Plus you’ll hear details on an exciting new PodKISSt contest brought to courtesy of Man Raze (a hard rock trio from London featuring Phil Collen of Def Leppard, Simon Laffy of Girl, and Paul Cook of the Sex Pistols). The winner gets a kick-ass Ace Frehley poster and a coveted place in the hallowed halls of PodKISSt! So don’t delay… it ain’t a crime to be good to yourself!

Då var det dags för en ny PodKisst, PodKISSt #46 KISS, Dee, and… Gustafer!

Every now and then, the influence of KISS shows up where you might not expect to find it! On this edition of the PodKISSt we are joined by acclaimed songwriter, musician, and graphic artist Morgan Taylor (AKA “Red Yogurt Bath” on the KISS forums). Morgan is a long-time KISS fan and the creator of “Gustafer Yellowgold,” a multimedia experience blending music and animation. “Gustafer Yellowgold” has received rave reviews as both a series of DVD/CD packages as well as a touring live show for all ages, and Morgan was a recipient of the Grand Prize in the 2008 John Lennon Songwriting Contest. Morgan joins us to talk about the influence of KISS on his life and career. Check our links section to learn more about Gustafer, and be sure to join him on his summer tour of the States!

If that ain’t enough, we’re treated to an exclusive interview with Lisa Jane Persky (“Dirty Dee”) recorded at the 2011 NY/NJ KISS Expo. All that, plus exclusive audio from KISS’ explosive performance in Sacramento last month, right here on PodKISSt… the KISS fanzine for your ears!

Be sure to check out the song “Beehive” (featuring Wilco’s John Stirratt & Pat Sansone) and see what happens when Gustafer attends his first KISS-style concert… in a beehive!

Ett trevligt ställe för den som vill hitta trycksaker med Kiss.

The FAQ Scan Project is based on a simple premise: I’ve accumulated quite a bit of interesting printed material during the writing of the “KISS Album Focus” and building of the website. I figure it makes sense to share that stuff since it does little more than sit in boxes awaiting a day in the sun on Ebay…

På Kisspickworld.com finns nu city picks. Alltså plektrum ifrån varje stad som Kiss spelade i under den senaste Europa turnén. KISS har också meddelat oss att informera Er om att tyvärr finns det falska kopier av dess plektrum ute på marknaden, så skall Ni beställa så gör det via www.kisspickworld.com

Såhär säger killarna om plektrumen:

”I love the way these picks look! What a great souvenir from each show. I threw these out every night when we’d come out to bow before the encore.” – Eric Singer

”Straight from the KISS stage to you…the ultimate KISS Tour guitar picks!” – Gene Simmons

”The new custom tour city guitar picks are a special addition to our usual arsenal of KISS picks. We had just a few to throw out onstage each night of the European tour. I told my guitar tech to save a couple for me!” – Tommy Thayer

”Forget the white picks! These are the Collectors’ Collectibles!” — Paul Stanley

Kisspickworld uppmanar att köpa plektrumen ifrån dom. Plektrumen är eftertraktade och inom en snar framtid kommer antaligen kopior att komma till. Köper Ni ifrån Kisspickworld så får ni med ett bevis på att det är ett äkta plektrum.
