25 Years Ago: Bruce Kulick Plays His Last Kiss Show
On Dec. 15, 1995, Bruce Kulick played his last show as an official member of Kiss.
Prior to Kulick s 1984 arrival, Kiss lead guitarist slot had been a revolving door, with Vinnie Vincent barely lasting two years as founder Ace Frehley s replacement, and Mark St. John dismissed twice as fast as Vincent. For over a decade Kulick brought talent and stability to the position, and helped the band return to platinum-selling, arena-filling status after their dramatic early 80s swoon.
His farewell to playing live with Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons and Eric Singer came during a three-song acoustic set at the Palladium in Los Angeles. The occasion was Mark and Brian s annual Christmas show, a syndicated radio special broadcast live on stations around the country, which found Kiss sharing the bill with such diverse artists as Peter Frampton, Spencer Davis and Bob Hope.
