Insanity: Vinnie Vincent Facebook Group Edition 

According to Sleaze Roxx, guitarist Vinnie Vincent will start charging $200 to access his Facebook fan group! The charge goes into effect February 1, 2024 and the $200 provides a year of access.


Holy moly, this is nuts! Is this where we are now? Is a monthly (or yearly) subscription required for everything these days? Also, who is going to pay $200 to access a freaking Facebook group? Please don't do this - I beg of you. Even to the biggest Vinnie or KISS fans: if you have the spare $200, just donate it to a worthy cause instead or something. Or put it in your IRA. Or toward a vacation. Or home improvement project. Or a million other things... but please. Don't. Pay. To. Access. A. Facebook. Group! #Insanity

Vinnie has always tried to charge insane amounts for things and usually backs down. I'll be surprised if this actually happens.

Please do it! It’s called capitalism. No different than paying $200 for a night of prerecorded music at a “live concert”. Morons do moronic things. That’s the great divide. Survival of the fittest if you will.

Man, what a shame how this guy's story has unfolded.

His writing with KISS was excellent, and really saved that band from extinction. The two VVI albums were great as well.
