Eric Singer

They always wanted to be "the Beatles on steroids."

Since 1973, the band has taken the stage with five different lead guitarists and three drummers. Here's who's played the most shows in each role.

The "Catman" makeup has been famously worn by both Kiss co-founder Peter Criss and the band's current drummer, Eric Singer.

Signed editions of the 1999 LP are available, featuring an Ace Frehley guest appearance alongside turns by Bruce Kulick, John Corabi and Karl Cochran.

Kiss alumni Ace Frehley, Eric Singer, Bruce Kulick and Bob Kulick performed together at the Indianapolis Kiss Expo.

On the 25th anniversary of Eric Singer’s first concert as a member of Kiss, the band's guitarist at the time, Bruce Kulick, shares some memories.

Eric Singer played his first show as a member of Kiss on April 23, 1992, following the death of previous drummer Eric Carr.

On March 9, 2001, Eric Singer began his second tour of duty with Kiss, performing while wearing the band's famous "Catman" makeup for the first time at a show in Yokohama, Japan.

Eric Singer has a message for Kiss fans still angry over other musicians wearing the founding members' makeup: time to move on.

Kiss enjoy an apparently never-ending demand for their music -- and given that they play in costumes and makeup, the band could conceivably continue on as a live act with replacement players even after all of the original members decide they don't feel like performing anymore.
