All I can add is vivid memories that when I was 5 in 1978 I saw Kiss everywhere. In 1978 they were near the top if not the top Halloween costume that year. I have very vivid memories of this.

My aunt was in art school at that time, she painted my two cousins and my face with grease paint that year; I was Gene, older cousin was Ace, younger cousin was Peter. Wish I still had that picture, she did a great job.

I remember when they took off their makeup on MTV in 83 and we were like "ugghh....put your makeup back on...their ugly!" :lol:

They had some good tunes bitd and I went to the hot in the shade 90 tour at Red Rocks. They do put on a great show I must admit.

Used to play this one in a 90's punk band, gets everyone going.


We stole the idea from RKL though.
