Without googling, how many current and former members of KISS can you name?

I'm up to 10.

I knew the first 5.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

Vinnie Vincent replaced Ace and was in the band when they removed the make up. Didn’t last too long after that and was replaced by Mark St John who unfortunately had an issue with his hands and couldn’t continue playing guitar.

Apparently those of us that were members of the KISS army in '79 were granted Cat 1 GF tickets

Never a Kiss fan, saw them live when I was a lot younger and I remember Stanley, Ace, and Gene the Tongue. Always thought they were just loud and ordinary compared to many other bands of the time. Here's me thinking that Meat Loaf was as bad as the AFL can get, the AFL says "Hold my beer". It's gonna be torture.

For extra points - what make up did Vinnie Vincent wear?

Not to forget Angry Anderson, Lionel Richie, Jimmy Barnes ... I commented in the other thread that it's as if the AFL is perpetually stuck in a time warp from 1978. :lol:

Never got into them, so I only know the three big names, but I do have one KISS-related story.

When I was a lad, there was a huge KISS concert at VFL Park. My folks had just bought a block of land in Wheelers Hill opposite the stadium, and I was helping dad measure up the block that afternoon and early evening. I can still remember fans in full KISS gear and makeup parking nearby and streaming past, much to my entertainment.

(Some time later when the house was being built, we met the Macedonian Marvel's (now late) dad and had a long chat as he'd parked nearby and sheltered himself from the rain in the half-built house after a match. That was a buzz for a kid who proudly wore the number 35!).
In the end the rain comes down, washes clean the streets of a blue sky town.
