I love Ace, always will but I don't feel bad for him. Hard for me to feel bad for people who continually screw up second chances and toss away what so many musicians worked their butts off for, then complain about it. Same with Vinnie, I loved that short era of Creatures and LIU...as I said above the Creatures tour was amazing because they were playing for their careers. Never heard them better. And I really like "alot" of the unmasked era alot of great tunes and some good tours during that era. As a Kiss fan though, glad it's over.
