Eric Singer Full Q&A - Indy KISS Expo 2018

[@bridgettelliott3220]

I absolutely love Eric. I met him a few times and we talked like we had known each other our whole lives. I was shocked bc I'm not attractive I'm a big girl. MOST men don't talk to me. I didn't expect anything but hey sign autograph and move on. But he has always been so sweet to me and we always have great conversations each time we meet. Awesome guy

[@taywear1887]

Do you think he’ll talk to me ? Cause you know I’m scared for guys not liking me 😔

[@bridgettelliott3220]

@@taywear1887 oh I am sure he would. Eric is a really nice guy.

[@taywear1887]

@@bridgettelliott3220 🥰 thanks you

[@sarahtuberville8467]

Screw what any hater says, Eric is a great guy. Not an ounce of arrogance or a mean spirit in this guy. Like anyone else, he is human. Whenever he gets gruff, he always has a reason for it and it turns out some of the folks out there are the ones with the attitude.

[@robinlove2729]

Sarah Tuberville not an ounce of arrogance??? Are u fuckin’ serious! The guy is a douche!!!!

[@sarahtuberville8467]

Blah blah blah

[@toma.4808]

You obviously didnt hear him and the others berating a young mexican music interviewer for wearing an iron maiden shirt. KZbin it.

[@DJPerryAngelozzi]

Eric is a fabulous drummer and a class act in every way. Deserves more credit

[@dale4039]

Eric always blows me away he has an incredible drive and is an incredible drummer and singer i always love hearing him sing Peter's older Kiss songs i really wanna hear him sing Hooligan

[@eastcumbriancollector983]

Yes yes

[@dirkvanderpoel6797]

Eric is a great drummer but also a nice and honest guy

[@IronhorseSara]

Oh my word Baby Ace is too adorable and love how he tells Eric his name is Ace lol!!!! Love how Eric interacts with him he's so good with kids lol.

[@LannyBenny]

Eric is definitely a guy you would want to hang out with and talk music and sports. He looks early 50's or late 40's... not 60. Wow!

[@aghollywood5342]

37 full stop

[@thriftyplus]

Eric Singer first showed up on my radar with "Black Sabbath - Seventh Star" along with the followup "The Eternal Idol". I also was a fan of Badlands, a band he formed with former Ozzy Guitarist, Jake E Lee. I'm surprised nobody asked any questions specific to either of these bands.

[@bigpapa8152]

His work with Alice Cooper was great as well. Solid drummer.

[@edgeworth7750]

William Norman maybe because it’s a KISS convention?

[@1979GenXdude]

Great interaction with the kid and he didn’t have to do it. He gave Baby Ace a day never to forget. How can you not like that? :)

[@RobTaylorDrums]

It’s pisses me off that people have such a downer on Eric Singer. He is an insanely talented talented drummer (by far the best technically) and is a great dude. Yes, Eric Carr was excellent too and was a great person too. But him not being here shouldn’t be used as a stick to beat Eric Singer with. He came in under tough circumstances and has been excellent. So what if he wears the Cat makeup? He wears it well and plays amazingly. That’s all that matters.

[@henrikpersson8741]

Eric is such a great guy!👍🏻💯

[@fileunderunknown6924]

Eric comes off as a cool dude. Say what you will about the make up, the dude can play his butt off and sing killer.

[@SONORSQ2guy]

Eric Singer is the most technically advanced drummer Kiss has ever had.

[@dvg4104]

No argument on that. I loved Eric Carr's energy, but there is no disputing Singer is technically a better drummer

[@LannyBenny]

@Mike Brunn... Thanks for sharing all these treasures with us.

[@LilWillyA2Z]

Another great video! Thanks Mike!

[@therockexperiencewithmikeb8365]

Thanks! Glad you are enjoying them!

Eric would be someone to know. What a great guy 👍

[@jackstonge]

I was there!!!

[@dist221]

I miss Eric Carr.

[@robinlove2729]

TheRockstarnr1 All ‘Real Kiss Fans’ miss Eric Carr! The Very Best guy ever!!! Phenomenal drummer n human being! The only drummer to ever come even close to the magic that Peter brought to band!!!

[@bridgettelliott3220]

It was funny watching re jam session. I said there's Eric no its not yeah it is LOL I wasn't aware of this event and hadn't seen this q&a to realize who all was there

[@KombatRealm]

This was hilarious. Eric is a great dude. Bet he gets shit from the camp for calling that kid "baby ace" and the future kiss guitarist.

[@chikaraaudios1686]

1:08 ES: Did you want to stand or talk? MC It's Up to you..what do you wanna do? ES I can sit down MC Alright stand LOL

[@nelsonsullivanhd9908]

26:35 Craig Gass shut down for the final time by Eric 😆 There was definitely some contention between them

[@Prof_Tickles92]

Craig seems like a desperate hanger on.

[@eddiemuniz761]

When Eric played on the first Classic Badlands album in 1989, had Ray Gillan been affected by his H.I.V. Prognosis yet or did he know about it yet???

[@Jimmie_Rudolfsson]

Is that Craig Gass?

[@SONORSQ2guy]

Jimmie Rudolfsson yes it is. It looks like he has gained a lot of weight.

[@eastcumbriancollector983]

Who is he ?

[@andrewhatcher2702]

Woooowwwww!!! Not do you wanna meet Tommy lol Do you meet Ace?!

[@therockexperiencewithmikeb8365]

Ace was in attendance for this event. Tommy was not.

[@jetcitysinatra7300]

I would ask is Eric had ever done Baby Driver.

[@kissed61]

Imagine if he said Baby Tommy , LOL

[@edgeworth7750]

Will you be here this year?

[@joegi6431]

baby Ace looks like its heads gonna spin right around

why does Eddie Trunk think Eric plays exactly [impersonates] like Peter Criss. Eric plays a double base, and plays different drum fills

[@sarahtuberville8467]

Eddie Trunk is full of it and he’s very insecure...

[@jackstonge]

What do you mean???

[@eddiemuniz761]

What Black Sabbath songs did Eric actually play on???

[@therockexperiencewithmikeb8365]

The Eternal Idol album. Came out in 87.

[@musicmayo1976]

He didn't say baby space man he said baby Ace because he's the real space man not Tommy Thayer

[@lukecold8562]

Draken Mayo :Well the kid was in a costume Tommy hasn't aped yet,Hotter then hell.

[@musicmayo1976]

Luke Cold still but Paul and gene don't care

[@10millionsubscriberswithno90]

Eric’s a nice guy and knows the truth Tommy Thayers an imposter. Eric may wear peters makeup but he still is a very nice likable guy

[@robinlove2729]

pepsi cola Eric is kind of a jerk!!!

[@sarahtuberville8467]

And how are you any different than you cry about how Eric is?

[@juniordelgado9611]

I wanted the baby ace to say actually I’m a plumber

[@therockexperiencewithmikeb8365]

Ha.....you win the internet today!

[@roamlikekane]

It'd be a pretty even match between Gass and Singer. I'd give Gass the edge, he's the bigger guy.

[@jorgerodriguez85]

I would've liked to been a fly on the wall when 'lil Ace met Ace. Thank God Eric didn't spot him & call him 'lil Tommy. 😬 Craig Gass doing Gene never gets old to me !😂

[@slamponyp]

[@ronaldtaylor4116]

Um yea. Thank you. What When is the real catman coming back?

[@AlexThorn]

Eric is so long winded with his answers.....

[@rosco2025]

It would be suicide for Eric to say that Ace was the best guitar player he has ever played with!

[@dvg4104]

It would also be a dumb thing to say because Eric has played with some legit guitarists. Ace is not very good.

[@SN-nh6pq]

ROFLMAO ......”Eric has played with some legit guitarists. Ace is not very good.”.....what a fucking dumbass you are. Got news for you ES has already mentioned multiple times how great Ace is you dumb fuck. “Ace is not that good” but has influenced yet so many. What a real fucking dumbass comment from a dumbass FUCKTARD!!!

[@dvg4104]

Wow, we've got an emotional Ace fanboy sperging out over a simple observation. Ace is sloppy and not very creative. Ace is not a reliable professional. Ace (among others) "influenced many" young kids like myself to pick up a guitar when we were very young. Sure, at 12 I thought Ace was an "ace" guitarist. By 14, I had figured out that Ace only has a couple "licks," and he recycles them. No serious guitarist is influenced by Ace Frehley's style, phrasing, sense of rhythm, etc. Little kids were "influenced" by the guitarist in KISS because they loved KISS. The ones who learned music, learned to play, went on to be musically influenced by more advanced guitarists like: Alex Lifeson, Edward Van Halen, Randy Rhoads, Richie Blackmore, Yngwie Malmsteen, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, Paul Gilbert and Michael Schenker. Eric Singer has played with Jake E. Lee, Tony Iommi and Bruce Kulick, all better players than Ace Frehley. Not saying Ace sucks. Not saying he can't play at all, just that he's not very good. He's certainly not someone Eric Singer would truthfully say was the best guitarist he's ever worked with unless he was totally patronizing an Ace fan or being political in his answer. If you like Ace, cool. I still like to listen to some of what he played on those classic KISS albums. Just because he's not a top-flight player doesn't make him unlistenable. But no, Joe Joe, Ace is not a GREAT guitarist.
