Kiss drummer Eric Singer points out that both Ace Frehley and Peter Criss played alongside replacement members wearing original makeup during their careers.
Alice Cooper was in Sioux Falls last Friday to have the recording studio at the Brennan Rock & Roll Academy dedicated to him. This Saturday, KISS will get the same treatment.
It's hard out there for a replacement drummer.

I talked to the founder of the Brennan Rock & Roll Academy in Sioux Falls Wednesday to find out more about the inspiration behind it, the huge grand opening planned for March 26-30 and another Hall of Famer added to the already great lineup.
Kiss drummer Eric Singer has sharp words for Peter Criss, but during a recent interview he never stoops to the level of insults thrown at him by the band's original timekeeper.
