Good one, about the Mummies' "trumpet player"! Hahahahaha
As far as the KISS Unplugged....yeppers, got it on a DVD.
Even though I've been a fan since '76, I think that they became a better playing band when the late Eric Carr, and Bruce Kulick joined. I always liked Peter & Ace (when they weren't high/drunk), but they actually were kinda limited in their playing styles.
I think that the current lineup with Eric Singer & Tommy Thayer just might be the best, as far as ability.
I have never understood why people who have posted that video of "God Of Thunder", keep calling it a "Country" version. That just boggles my mind.
It's NOT meant to be a "Country" version. It's just jack@ss Gene making fun of what he believes "country fans" to be like.
It's actually sad, because I've always loved that song. For them to actually do that on air....childish, IMHO.
But, I guess when you're worth as much money as KISS is, you can get away with it. Especially when you're playing to fans that probably think the same way that you do about people who like "REAL" Country music.
BTW, I know that you, yourself, meant no offense.
That video just seems to irritate me every time I see it.
