Jimmy DeGrasso on drums

Post by RemarkablyInsincere » Mon Aug 25, 2008 12:04 pm

Staring tomorrow night in Lakewood, Jimmy DeGrasso will be playing drums for Alice for the next few weeks as Eric Singer has a few KISS gigs and will also be taking a bit of a break as he's been going strong with Kiss and Alice for the last so many months.

Jimmy has a short message about it on his web page:

it's a shame eric missed the shows for his home area.I'm sure feezle can back me up on the enthusiastic response he gets at the shows! not to mention he probably gets to see alot of family...so slightly off topic-wasn't the farewell kiss tour like 8 years ago?

KISS played Whistler, British Columbia, a while back and of course with Alice lately as well. I'd love to see them play up here in Alberta!!!
