I don’t know if any of you has heard his Warrior demo with him singing; it’s amazing, this guy could write like Townshend, and then shred like Di Meolia; and he has a great singing voice; really soulful…So, I feel bad for him because he was way overqualified for Kiss and should’ve stayed in the background, and then you hear his songs getting Frankensteined into Kiss songs, with someone else singing them, and Vinnie let them do it. But, from what I understand, Kiss offered him a contract making him a partner, but Vinnie never signed it, so it seems like Vinnie would’ve had more of the spotlight on him going forward…..It seems Vinnie never intended to be in Kiss but was using it to launch his own career…..Kiss needs someone who could front his own band, but is too lazy to do it; thus, Ace was perfect for them. You hear them complain, albeit justifiably, about Ace’s lackluster work ethic, but, really, that’s what made him work with them; if he had been more ambitious like Vinnie, it would’ve imploded…like it did with Vinnie.
