So the dude that started as a “fill in” for our Gene and has subsequently become our regular guy leads Sin City KISS. They have been active about 10 years or so. Turns out they needed an Ace and had a costume so I stepped in there as well.
Great dudes and having more fun doing this than I’ve had gigging in years. We still have KISS THIS at the Casino and looks like it may move to 5 days a week at a bigger show room with some serious dollars pumped into it.
Here’s some pics from a benefit gig we did outdoors for a Trunk or Treat. During Black Diamond I went for the knee drop for the outro solos only to realize I had never tried getting from my knees back up to my feet before the event!

Yeah that kid was awesome! He and his twin were doing the baby butt squat dance the whole time we played.
I’m a big fan of the Hotter Than Hell costume but honestly I’ll rock any of them but ALIVE! Still too fat!

Oh man! I took the slowest digger in the parking lot by some rocks! It was hilarious and terrifying all at the same time.
It literally was like a scene done in slow motion but in real time at the same time!
