My 7 Year old Son Georgio Holding the Thunderbolt Wrapper and cant wait to see them this sunday in Adelaide !!!!!!!!

This is Eric Carr's business card for his production company. Eric gave this to me one night at the L'amour East rock club in Queens, NY around 1985/86. Lita Ford was playing that night, and Eric and I spoke for about 30 minutes. He was interested in doing an interview for a fanzine a friend and I were putting out called KICK ASS MONTHLY. Eric was a great guy. I don't know if this is a common piece of KISStory, pretty cool to me!

Hi fellow KISS freaks, I've been a KISS fan for about 35 years, so when Caltex Starmart recently held a competition to win meet and greet tickets, I naturally had to enter. The theme to the contest was to be photographed holding a KISS ice block, while doing your best KISS impersonation. This was my entry, I hope you like it. Unfortunately, I was not the winning entry for my state, that went to fellow KISS Army Australia member Jack Shaw (whose pic can be seen on the news page). I was a little disappointed with not winning, but couldn't think of a more deserving winner than Jack. He is only young and absolutely loves KISS. Anyway,it's only a little over a week away 'til the first Sydney show and I, for one, can't wait. It'll be my daughter's first ever KISS concert. Life for her will never be the same again! Rock on m/ Rob

Hey KISS, Do you guys think you could come to Calgary this year. I am 10 years old and really want to see the GREATEST ROCK BAND EVER KISS!!!!!!!!!

Los Bukiss: curiosa mezcla de dos agrupaciones musicales contempor�neas. Una mexicana, los Bukis de Marco Antonio Solis y Kiss de Estados Unidos. Ambas con gran trascendencia en el p�blico mexicano.

KISS Invades the Model Train world. I've made an outdoor concert of the worlds greatest band, I display it at model train shows through out western Canada. There are over 4300 people hand glued individually it's displayed in my KISS room when I'm not attending shows. The cool thing is how parents bring their kids to the train shows and they get even more excited than the kids! KISS IS REALLY EVERYWHERE!!!!!!!! My first show was 1977 in Edmonton THE LOVE GUN TOUR I was hooked from that day on.

Bill Shaw was 18 years old when he left his home in Saint John NB Canada to check out the phenomenon was that was KISS at the Moncton Coliseum in the winter of 1976. To Bill�s luck and amazement, he and is pal Norm had scored front row tickets. �I was so close I could reach out and touch Gene Simmons� boots�, Bill recalls. He remembers looking up into the bloated Demon face, flooded in green from the stage lights, when spurts of blood began to trickle down the corners of the rock star�s mouth. Bill is certain there were drops of the stage blood stained into his own clothes that night. But the real thrill was when Paul Stanley ran onto the stage, amidst a shower of confetti and fireworks, and began smashing a Gibson Marauder guitar into the floor. To Bill�s delight, the lead singer, having smashed the instrument into pieces, threw the body of the guitar right into Bill�s hands. �As soon as I caught it, I gave it right to Norm�, Bill adds. His friend was wearing a large winter jacket and the intent was to protect the guitar body from prying hands. Within seconds, Bill recalls, there were numerous people pouncing on top of he and Norm. �I couldn�t breath�, Bill exclaimed. Somehow, they managed to get out of Moncton and with the guitar body. On the ride home, Norm offered the broken guitar back to Bill. Norm suggested that they should just throw it out � a broken guitar is not worth much. But Bill Shaw has kept the relic in a cloth sac for nearly forty years. The signature has faded quite a bit, but Paul Stanley�s name and star are clearly seen on the Marauder�s white pickguard. The body is completely broken down the middle, and only the pickguard and pickup assembly are holding the two halves together. It is clear that the guitar did not separate from the body where four bolts hold the neck and body together, rather, the bolts held tight and took pretty much the middle section of the body with the neck. On the curved edge of the black body, there are bits of round and square confetti that had been pounded into to the paint 37 years ago. Bill is not sure what the guitar is worth. It is hard to appraise such a unique piece, as well as authenticate its use in a KISS show. For Bill Shaw, it is a souvenir of the night that he �almost got killed� and saw one of the greatest stadium rock acts of the 70s. -Jeff Scott CANADA
