In a recent discussion with Ultimate Classic Rock, Bruce Kulick suggested that KISS fans left the band’s farewell performance in New York on December 2, 2023, feeling dissatisfied.
Explaining the reasons behind the disappointment, the guitarist stated:
“For me, the final show, the fans really have spoken. I really think a lot of them were disappointed leaving the show. I know that some of them knew that probably Ace, Peter or maybe even me wouldn’t be there. But they never said anyone’s names. They didn’t even mention all of the other important people in their career like Bill Aucoin or even Doc McGhee or other important [figures] that are part of KISStory — the people that helped the band be so successful.”
Reflecting on Not Being Part of the Farewell
He also expressed his disappointment about not participating in KISS’s farewell show, noting:
“I’m not going to crash the party and go when I wasn’t invited. It was certainly their night. I really celebrated their last night with my post on social media, congratulating them on their final show. You know, it’s their night to do what they wanted. Now, I wasn’t aware of the [avatars], and neither were the fans.”
