In a new Interview with Mitch Lafon, Ex-KISS guitarist Vinnie Vincent discussed seeing Gene Simmons at the KISS legend’s “Vault” event in Nashville, Tennessee.
He said:
“I almost didn’t do his ‘Vault’, because… When you’re driving, you think… And the thing that kept coming into my mind was, ‘It’s the first time I’m seeing this guy after being run over by his bus.’
“It’s easy to run over somebody when you can just keep forking hundreds of thousands of dollars into attorneys, to your law firm, and say, ‘Hey, destroy Vinnie. Here’s another hundred and fifty thousand, here’s another five hundred thousand. I want you to destroy Vinnie,’
It’s very easy and it’s also really cute to say, ‘Hey, here’s Vinnie filing his hundred and fiftieth lawsuit, another three hundredth lawsuit. Ha! Ha!’ Very funny. Very f*c*ing funny. Not funny to me. And yeah, these were different lawsuits for different causes of action.
“When you have money, you buy justice. And you may not even buy justice — you buy a win or you buy a lose. Mostly people with that kind of money do not lose, because judges are pretty much on the same… they’re not on the wavelength of justice. It’s good old boy game.”

Vinnie who?
Vinnie Vincent, the only one with real musical talent besides the drummer.
Kiss is generally Paul and Gene. Anyone else is hired. Back in the days when Vinny was in the band revenue was low. All he got was $20,000 a year salary. I’m sure touring was rough. They probably slept on the bus.
This guy is crazy!! HE was the one who kept sueing KISS…for years. A contract that he did not sign, and still he wants money. Oh, and he wanted to come to Gene’s Vault like so so bad. It’s embarrising to see that clip.
They are just greedy. Paul seems like the compassionate one. It was uncalled for what they did to Eric Carr. I expect it from Gene but not Paul. They should remember they had to start some place.
