It's a really special night for our fans. It's vindication.

The great thing about rock-n-roll is you realize the top of the mountain is big enough for more than one band.

Nothing could ever stop Kiss. I've seen the band in down times where critics were like vultures circling overhead saying things like, 'Well, you know it's the end of your career.'

The whole idea of rock and roll lifestyle is a cartoon. It's a caricature. And at times, it's made up of people emulating others; a few who actually live that lifestyle and many who claim to live that lifestyle.

To go from being an unpopular, chubby little kid who was chasing girls and couldn't seem to catch them, to being chased after and making sure I ran slow enough that I did get caught, it was 180 degree turn. It was being given the keys to the candy store.

Nashville may be famed for its country music, but this may well be the capital of rock and roll music in the United States of America.

I love being a member of KISS.
