UNMASKED:

MY 50-YEAR 

JOURNEY WITH KISS

An insider’s scrapbook containing a half-century

of KISS stories and artifacts that go beyond

face painting and fireworks.

For more than fifty years, I have been an ardent fan of the rock band KISS. From their electrifying stage shows to their iconic makeup and costumes, KISS has been a constant source of inspiration and entertainment throughout my life. This book is a testament to my lifelong journey as a KISS fan, from my earliest memories of seeing them perform on television to my recent experiences attending their concerts and meet and greets. In each chapter, I will share my anecdotes, insights, and reflections on what it means to be a KISS fan and part of the KISS Army. I will also have comments from people who performed with me in our impersonations and have gone to shows with me over the years. You will also see a lot of Kiss memorabilia which in some cases one of a kind. See below on the book chapters and things you will discover in this book.
