Peter Criss

In 50-plus years, only 10 people have been able to call themselves members of Kiss.

He claims the original members "should have been" with Kiss for 50 years.

We're rockin' around the Christmas tree and into a long list of rock stars who are celebrating their birthdays this month.

"The only reason they’re not here with us is themselves," says the Kiss bassist.

Simultaneously released debuts "probably put the final nail in the coffin of the band," he later concluded.

Former Kiss drummer led glam-rockers through three solo tunes.

Drummer made plea in 'New York Times' op-ed published on Oct. 25, 1980.

Drummer arrived at audition with music stand and pretended he could read sheet music.

Kiss frontman says ex-drummer has a bad attitude.

Peter Criss is preparing for his final round of shows, having announced his retirement from the road.
