Holly Gonnella I done some work at his house in Jersey in 2005 we were there 10 weeks, I'm a musician but was not a Kiss fan at all I'm into Dylan, Neil Young etc. But once I met him and mentioned I'm from Liverpool he was so happy to talk about the Beatles he absolutely loves them, after that I got to talk to him on a daily basis mainly about music he told me some funny shit he's funny guy. Absolute lovely man very down to earth let us use his guest house for lunch his pool anytime we wanted, I came away a huge Peter Criss fan and will be forever.

Very cool to see Peter & Gene together again. No matter what, these guys are family.

Paul is getting his karma from all the smack he's talked about former members , lost his voice and Gene is looking like the good guy in the end. Love the original band .

I just finished Genes book after Paul’s and I find it very fascinating that Gene signs his book off mentioning what a pleasure it was to deal with a more mature and together Ace in the Psycho Circus era and that no matter what, Ace and Peter would always have a special place in his heart Just such a shockingly different tone from Paul’s book that dressed down everyone in his path

Peter is the one member of Kiss that went out gracefully. He seems the most down to Earth out of the four original members in my opinion. Thanks for all the years of Kick ass drumming and memories Peter. 🥁

Aww Gene looked so happy to see Peter! This made me so happy! I love Peter so much I hope we will get to see him on the new tour!

Even if peter is no longer in the band, I'm happy they are in good terms

Bless you Peter Criss aka Catman IMO All original founding band members of KISS should get together at "The Vault"

The one and only is right,PETER CRISS ON THE DRUMS,GOD BLESS YOU CATMAN FOREVER!!!!!

All 4 did something so special, but as it goes it only lasted so long. It's great to see they all still care for each other

Having said that, that first kiss the live album change my life as a 13-year-old and still stand strong as one of the best live albums ever made

thanx 4 posting, nice video to wake up to

It’s nice to see Gene with Ace, Peter and Vinnie. What’s up with Paul?

I wonder if Gene gave Peter or Ace $$ for showing up to these appearances since it was mostly a Gene thing outside of Kiss. Just curious if they got paid to show up.

Peter looks healthy and capable. One final worldwide tour perhaps limited shows would be a fitting end to the four that started it all. After all NOTHING would have come after if not for the original foursome. The REAL KISS

they did do one final world tour. it ended in 2001. move on.

This is so great to see.

I think there has ALWAYS been a lot of genuine affections between the guys in the original line up. So much of the shit and animosity, I THINK, comes out of that family dynamic. When someone you're close to publicly criticizes you it makes it that much worse. At the core of it, I think that's what we've seen over the decades, the public being privy to a family fight.

So great to see them together

I can sniff another major and last reunion between Peter Ace Gene and Paul. But I feel the real handbrake in all this is Paul after reading his book on how Kiss is his band and how he saved it many times over the years. Maybe Gene Ace and Peter could do it without Paul. You know anything can happen a new Paul replacement who can sing would be great.

Peter criss looks good

It feels good just to see harmony between them. Still don't see a reunion tour. I see Cruise announcements. I see them getting together for a one off song in those settings, but that's about it. Just seeing these kinds of moments alone make it worth while. That is reunion enough for me. Happiness instead of bitching.

KISS fan since 1975. Honestly, Paul Stanley needs to just bury the hatchet already w/ Peter and Ace. Move on, do your new Kiss thing fine but bring it full circle. He's always going on about "life's too short"... take your own advice and make your peace. You will thank yourself for it.

I have been a huge fan since the first album, seen them in every incarnation more times than I can count, the reunion made me feel like an invincible 10 year old again. Now when you look back and see what could have been it truly breaks my heart to see how it is now. Paul was always my favorite member, but his bitchy tantrums over Ace and Peter makes me wish the band has just called it quits after Psycho Circus, at least then it would have ended with some dignity.

No questions etc. because Peter's wife runs things....

If you haven't seen the one hour movie called kiss breaking the band, at one time when Peter Criss was down and out and his home got destroyed buy an earthquake and he was ready to commit suicide my putting a gun in his mouth and look down on the floor and seen a picture of his daughter and it caused him to change his mind. It would have been so sad if he had pulled the trigger.

Badass to see peter c kicking back with gene i dig that shit
