I once had money to burn. I'd fly to Barbados for the weekend. I lived in a twenty-two-room mansion and had my pick of four luxury cars.

When 'Destroyer' was first released, we got a strong backlash from our hardcore fans. After six months, the album was dead in the water. The critics didn't think much of it, either.

I find myself evil. I believe in the devil as much as God. You can use either one to get things done.
George Peter John Criscuola Kiss -
We're much more controlled now. We were kids back then, we each had our own demons. It was insanity.

As busy as I claim to be, I've still got the greatest job in the world.

The magic's back and we're in a time tunnel, feeling like when we were in our 20s back in the 1970s.

I finally got a chance to talk to my daughter from my previous marriage. I just got married May 3 to my beautiful wife, but we don't see each other much.

Men get it. I think us men need you women to help us survive.

I think money, power, fame changes people a lot.

It's a younger generation running the show, and I miss the generation we had in the '70s. They were really very honorable guys, like Neal Bogart and Bill Graham, people who will never be around again.

There's a lot of smoke being blown at you, but this is no new sport to me; I've been doing it a long time, I'm used to it and I see it coming immediately the minute it gets into our realm.
George Peter John Criscuola Kiss -
For me, music is all about emotion and attitude.

I'm from Brooklyn. I grew up very poor- seven people, four rooms. My dad had no education.

What I love about being a member of KISS is that we're the 'John Glenns' of rock - we always have to be the first in anything we do, and I love that.

We're playing the Superbowl this year, we're opening up before the coins drop.

Three times during the show the drums are lifted over the audience - I go up and out, right, left and back.

We're really in control; that's the difference. We were out of control then.

Musicians play music because you love... I loved to play drums since I was five. It's all I ever wanted to do. Rock stars, or as we call them, posers, guys who want to just look great, dress great. They're not musicians; they're looking for the fame.

Cool things happen. Ace's guitar flies through space, goes through a hole, and blows up. I throw drumsticks and they come flying at you.

Don't sit around playing Mr. Tough Guy. Don't say 'It's going to go away'... It's just important - just go get checked out. It's not like you're going to lose your manhood.
George Peter John Criscuola Kiss -
I deal with guys in their 20s and early 30s who are presidents of companies, who are movie directors.

There's not a day that goes by that I don't bless myself with holy water and then get in my car and rub the medal of the Virgin Mary that she gave me and say a Hail Mary for my mother. And then I kiss her Mass card that's right there on the dashboard.
