Original KISS drummer Peter Criss has released the following statement about the Rock N’ Roll Hall of Fame induction:
“To KISS fans,
It’s disappointing to have to say to you, the fans, that as of today, Ace and I have been denied a performance with Gene and Paul for our Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction. Tickets go on sale on Monday, February 24th, and I wanted to make sure that fans understood that no original performance, in or out of makeup, has been offered to us before they purchased their tickets. This is disgraceful and I feel bad for the fans who were looking forward to the four of us being inducted together.
God Bless,
Peter Criss – The Catman”

I’ve Been A Kiss Fan For 40 yr. It ‘s Disapointing That Kiss Won’t Play On The RARHOF But I’ll Watch It Anyways ,And Peter Was A big Part Of KISS ,He Sould Be There Playing Them Old ,Bad Ass Kiss Songs,That Still Hold Up Today.
As a lifetime KISS fan this news is disappointing obviously and only just goes to show how much this groups priorities have changed drastically over the years and more times than not as a fan of the group I have usually put my feelings aside and didn’t say anything about how the actions of the current line up have carried on, but this one is the last at least for myself and I know my words are going to be met with negative responses but at this point I don’t care and wont continue to support a group that cant even put their differences aside for one evening or even a couple of hours for the die hard KISS fans to be inducted into the R.R.H.O.F. , as well no disrespect to Eric or Tommy as they have proven they are top notch musicians even before KISS but this time its gone too far and if some fans don’t care about a group and what brought them to the point they are at now, and they don’t care who is behind the make up then I don’t care to waist any more of my money on a tribute band because that’s all they are now and its truly a sad day for all die hard fans who were looking forward to seeing them one last time. RIP KISS
For a group not to be able to put their differences aside for a few hours then I no longer support this group as a lifetime fan and wont be purchasing anything further involving KISS
Maybe it’s his bad clothing choices?
I do Spike. Go on another kiss cruise and quit behaving like a troll.
