Tuesday, November 04, 2008 5:37:37 AM - Vinnie Vincent's "Euphoria" on iTunes


That's right! Vinnie's 1996 EP is available on US iTunes for $3.96. The four songs were supposed to be a sample of material from a then forthcoming full-length release. Sadly, nothing further would be heard from the Wiz as issues too numerous impacted his life. For those who have never heard where Vinnie was "at" in the 90s, these songs are very representative (and the webmaster loves 'em!). They have the energy of the "Invasion" album, and Vinnie's guitar playing is staggering. Check 'em out! Songs included: "Euphoria," "Get The Led Out," "Wild Child," and "Full Shredd."


Thursday, October 30, 2008 7:48:16 PM - Chris Davis - "Baby Driver"

Tuesday, October 28, 2008 4:27:05 AM - Largo '77


While the full show has been available to some for quite some time, the classic KISS performance in Largo, parts of which were included with KISSology as a bonus DVD is finally available to the masses. While the KISSFAQ can't tell you where to obtain it, other than NOT purchasing illegal DVDs on Ebay, it is out there...


Saturday, October 25, 2008 7:22:29 AM - "One Live Kiss" Audio Issues?
Some users are experiencing apparent issues with their "One Live Kiss" DVD with the video playing and no sound being heard...

It's NOT a manufacturing or DVD fault, the default audio on the DVD is set to DTS5.1, and if your player hardware doesn't support it then you hear nothing. Simply select the "Dolby Stereo" option, as below, and you should be ready to relive/experience the glory of Paul's "Live To Win" tour!
