Ex-KISS Shredder Vinnie Vincent Announces First Public Appearance in Almost 20 Years

MetalSucks all-time favorite, recluse, weirdo, wife-beater / dead dog hoarder and best guitar player ever to play in KISS (and possibly of all time!) — the down and out Vinnie Vincent — is finally about to resurface after a really, really rough go of it in recent years.

Blabbermouth reports that Vincent has been tapped for an appearance at the Atlanta KISS Expo. Indeed, according to the expo’s website, a “silver” ticket to the event gets you the opportunity to sit in on a Q&A with the mercurial one-time KISS guitarist, while a “pink” ticket gets you that and a special commemorative Vinnie Vincent lanyard. Meanwhile a $289 VIP ticket gets you an exclusive VIP meet and greet, three autographs, a photo op, a group photo op, the lanyard and some other crap.

Clearly Vincent’s participation is being heavily used as a selling point in drumming up interest for this event.

While I can’t say I’ll be making a trip to Atlanta for it, I’m envious of those who do: please let us know how the old chap is doing, and tell him MetalSucks sent ya.
