I feel like they’ve treated Bruce as a very competent placeholder between the classic-Ace/Vinnie and reunion-Ace periods. He was a pivotal player that kept some musical stability during the 80s and early 90s periods. He deserves more respect and recognition.

[@markdavis5970]

I was front row during the hot in the shade concert and couldn't believe how good Bruce was. he made a point every so often to look right at me and Id watch his fingers on the fret board and I was blown away at how easy he made It look.. He deserves to go Into the hall of fame with Ace Peter and Eric Carr.

[@jeffandersen7397]

the guy did great work. he's not my favorite guitar player but he came in strong on Asylum and is probably more than partly responsible for making Revenge and Carnival of Souls respectable Hard Rock lp's

Bruce was only one that I could except in Ace's place ! He was awesome in concert without the ego!!! Tommy has no personality and acts like a big shot !!! Love Ace and Bruce !!! Loved the first line up and loved the unmasked lineup!!! Shouldn't have put the makeup back on!!! Just my opinion!!!

[@brycemcneil4404]

Bruce actually does a good job here expressing how he feels about things. Asserting his side but not aggressively lashing out at anyone. He really *is* a mensch.

[@seagullpoet]

Video montage would of been great !

[@wbfwbl8434]

I would love to have a friend like Bruce. The is a sweet guy who would not hurt a fly. He did not get the credit he deserved for being a part of the band in those hard times when KISS needed a man like him and I'm not talking only about him being a great guitar player. People like him bring peace and don't allow chaos to spread. Bruce is just great and it hurts me as a KISS fan that he did not get even invited to MSG. I did not care about Ace or Peter but Bruce was always great, never threw sh... at P&G and I bet he has some spicy stories to tell but he will not do it. He has principles and shows his love for the band. Bruce was not treated with the respect he deserved but for me he is the best and not only because he knows how to play great riffs but also because he is just a great guy

[@DunmoresMovieMania]

I would love to have a BAND MEMBER like Bruce - totally reliable, totally classy, totally talented, totally clean, totally respectful...

If all the original members had Bruce Kulick's outlook, there would only be ONE KISS LINEUP and we'd never know Bruce Kulick.

[@markdavis5970]

Very true

[@whyitmatterstome]

Yeah, they all seem a bit egotistical and self-absorbed - listening to their interviews and how the all bash each other makes me less of a fan of them as people. Loved KISS as a kid, but the drama! Surprised the original lineup remained together for as long as they did.

[@kevinchandler179]

Now, you people know why Peter and Ace have said that Paul and Gene are delusional greedy scumbags!!!

[@stanleybroniszewsky8538]

Even though Vinnie made some great contributions to some KISS songs, the band would have been better if they just hired Bruce rather than Vinnie. It would have saved a ton of headaches.

[@theshadowboxer]

Bruce.is truly a class act. The 80s KISS was my band for sure. I became a fan in 79 and grew to love everything. The 80s, that was my growing up and becoming ever more deeply invested in it all. Then the early 90s Revenge tour (the hottest musical version)... Bruce throughout it all... A true team player. 🤘🏼🖖🏼🤟🏼

[@analoguecity3454]

Mine too man, I'm 53 fist kiss record was "Animalize"!

[@lancedonohue2975]

I had the pleasure to go to a radio event in Dallas Texas in the early 90's and was approached by Bruce. He walked up to me and we chatted about guitars and KISS. He then asked Eric Singer to join our conversation. What a great person. During that same event Paul and Gene looked at me and just kind of turned up their nose to me and the others attending the event. Bruce kind of rolled his eyes and said "Don't worry about them." I'm so glad I had an opportunity to meet an artist that truly is down to earth, kind and welcoming. and Oh yeah, Bruce led KISS through the 80's - 90's with his stellar guitar skills. God Bless You Bruce Kulick

[@chrisoakley5830]

Always a pleasure to see and hear Bruce Kulick talking about his career or playing his music, he was a very important and talented member of KISS while in the band. He is an exceptional guitarist and performer. Thank you, Bruce, for all of the great entertainment that you have given us. Good luck in whatever you have planned in the future. ❤

Bruce is and always has always been very diplomatic in every interview. I was lucky to have been a guitar student of Bruce's for a year in Queens NY a year before he joined Kiss.

[@yar9333]

Been a Kiss fan since 1976, when I was 12. Never got to see them with makeup. Saw them in 85 and 87 with Bruce. Great shows. I love Ace, his songs were always different. But, Bruce is the best guitarist they ever had. He could play any era, any thing. No massive ego, no drama, just play things right.

[@brandonjones2721]

I started with the Bruce era. I'm an 80's kid and he's the best! Hope he keeps going and continues to represent his era of KISS.

[@jaybrown4526]

Me too. I was 13 years old when the Animalize Live video was first broadcast on Mtv. I Watched it knowing very little about the Bruce/Eric era and even less about the makeup era. BUT- I did somehow know that Bruce and Eric were not the originals. Didnt matter to me. Ive been a HUGE KISS fan ever since.

[@mynameismud-qd9vu]

Bruce is a stand up guy and a class act who unfortunately was nixed from the band due to greed and never brought back.

[@ca3317]

I agree. How do you not honor the entire band and all former members? Kiss wouldn't be here without Vinnie, Bruce, Mark, Eric Carr. It's very disrespectful to those guys and the fans. We don't ask for much. But to not honor them and get off the stage without a thank you? Well, gene n Paul are gene n Paul.

[@MrEricPymm]

Exactly. Like Bruce said, they easily could've done a video montage that honored and respected every member and the entirety of the history of the band.

[@allstopblue5717]

I am able to see it from their view though as well. The later members weren’t part of creating the band and the initial legacy. I do agree the later guys should have been at least honored. Mostly Eric Carr

[@raymondmatias4441]

I always said Bruce meant a lot to the band when he took over as lead guitarist, he deserves to be acknowledged for the work he did on the Kiss albums ,

[@GNXXRAY]

Bruce and Eric were my favorite era of KISS. The music was the absolute best. I was a huge fan as a young boy in the 70’s. The fire and blood and Ace’s guitar catching fire. The rising drum kit with the fighting cats on it was tremendous. But as a 15 year old learning to play guitar…watching DIAL Mtv in 1985 and seeing Tears are Falling in the top 10 every single day and trying to play the song. Those are the days I’ll never forget.

[@freakybeaky1]

Fantastic guitar playing on that track.

KISS royally screwed Bruce! His fit with KISS all those years was perfect! Great guitarist who respected Paul and Gene’s leadership while providing brilliant guitar playing! He willingly stepped aside for KISS’s reunion and 1st farewell tour yet when it came time to carry on with a non - original KISS guitar player they pick Tommy Thayer over Bruce! Bruce knew all the old songs as evidenced on KISS Alive 3. He was in KISS for 12+ years, yet was snubbed for a former band employee!

[@gemini_man66]

They could pay Tommy less and yeah, Bruce got screwed just like other past members. It's a greedy and seedy industry.

Bruce is totally right! And for me, Kiss should be ashamed for not honoring all past members. They are all a big part of Kisstory. I think it was a missed opportunity.

[@michaelchamp3093]

The best way for kiss to leave off on the last concert would have been to have ace play a few songs, Peter sing Beth, Bruce in for a few songs, vining Vincent on lick it up, and pay homage to Eric Carr o with a video montage. That would have been a class act.

[@tomani3428]

And let Eric and Tommy sing one song each from Monster or Sonic Boom. I think that "All for the glory" is not a good song, but a really great one. Eric has played on 4 albums, Tomi, starting with "Hot in the shade", is somehow present on each subsequent album, either as a guitarist or as a co-writer. And Gene also plagiarized the Domino riff from the Black n Blue song "Nasty, Nasty", which in turn has Gene's co-authorship, because there appears a riff from "Only You" from Elder, the vocalist of Black said about it 'n'Blue

[@rashawnda-professor2999]

That would have been epic. Also a photo of Vinnie's replacement who also died. Fans have requested that the group did a tribute to Eric even though the classic line up performed songs from Post Make-Up era during their reunion/farewell tours during the early 2000's.

Bruce seems like a genuine, honest person. Technically, he is also a better musician than most other members of Kiss. As a song writer? Tough to say, there are some Kiss songs where he is credited and they sound pretty good to me, but there is also stuff I don’t care for that much.

I am excited about the opportunity to see The Bruce Kulick Band tour a set of KISS tunes from his era. Aside from that, I’m all set with KISS. I have my records and DVD’s and KZbin. I’m good.

[@GenesisMuseum]

I think the big reason Kiss didn't bring the past members on the tour is...honestly, some large portion of the concertgoers were there for the songs, the spectacle...and didn't even realize that Eric/Tommy were "replacements", probably didn't know the names Eric/Tommy, and would generally be confused if other members were up there. As a big Kiss fan, I would have LOVED to see Bruce, Vinny, Ace/Peter, even Mark St. John up there, like a great tribute to the past. But for the vast majority of concertgoers, they probably see 1 "cat" and 1 "spaceman" and that's good enough.

And Kiss did do a video montage of the history of the band with all eras for the original Farewell Tour in 2000. As for the Hall Of Fame, I still don't know: What about the idea of the current Kiss with Tommy and Eric playing songs with Ace and Peter, too? And Bruce. (Gene & Paul wouldn't allow Vinnie.) Some fans said the Hall Of Fame wouldn't allow anything other than just the original four members, so that's why no performance. And for others to do cover versions would have looked awkward, with seven out of eight living current/former Kiss members in the room and no one joining in.

Mensch is also German for human and a person. But in that sense it's also slang for a person with integrity and honor 🙂

[@HappyMachorino-bd8no]

There are also quite a few Yiddish words in the German language (e.g. vermasseln). I was not sure, is it original German or original Yiddish.But Bruce said "Yiddish".

Besides Ace, Bruce was the best for Kiss.

I actually started in the Mark St. John era, but bruce was there too! Then i back traced the catalog! My "kisstory" stared in 1985 at the tender age of 15!😊

Bruce is such a class act!

[@albertdavila6808]

Bruce is a true lady as we say over here. A class act. I met him in puerto rico in a tv show that he came with mr speed a kiss tribute band. Really friendly.

We got it on Unplugged, but that's when the NEEDED (not just WANTED) the money. Bruce is a great guy, I've never heard him slam anybody.

Bruce, I really hope u read this..anything is possible...I was born in 75..discovered kiss in 79..diehard fan ever since. I've always favored the original kiss, but ALWAYS liked your work! On HOT in the shade I thought you really started coming out of your shell. I loved that album!! Your solos were getting more melodic...and welll....perfect!! Then Revenge came out!!! This very quickly became my favorite kiss album!! THIS was quintessential kiss!!! That album was PERFECT...man I could go on and on!!! Naturally, I was INCREDIBLY psyched about the reunion tour but I was equally bummed that I wasn't getting a Revenge 2...I think kiss was on the brink of some REALLY great stuff with that lineup!! Thanks for it all bruce....love ya man!!!!

[@kevinchandler179]

As a die hard Peter Criss fan and Ace fan, the point is, Peter and Ace were not actually mad at all about the ridiculous end of the road bullshit, and they are class acts!!! It's ridiculous that Paul Stanley would take any shot at Peter and Ace and say they were not worthy or not able to do it!!! Have you watched how terrible Stanley looked the last 10 years, even!!!!

[@chrisgoyette1846]

Bruce, Love u man! You helped SAVE Kiss after the Makeup!! Saw you guys many times during the 90's and you all were Awesome!! Keep Doing You Bruce!!

[@MICKEY4356]

Met Bruce at the KISS convention in Atlanta 1995. ⚡⚡

[@kurtstergar1042]

What do you expect from Paul and Gene. I saw the revenge tour. They couldn't even do a memorial video to play at the concerts for Eric Carr.

[@RedBeardTattoo]

I personally feel that Eric Carr, Bruce Kulick, Eric Singer and Tommy Thayer should have been inducted in the Hall of Fame. The RRHF really really dropped the ball.
