    I completely adore him, wonderful drummer and wonderful person, RIP. I love all the KISS drummers.

    I'm livin' in the 70s, I feel like I've lost my keys
    I got the right day, got the wrong week
    I get paid for just being a freak

    I saw him on the Kiss Hot in the Shade tour. He was brillant.

    I feel there is one important little fact that hasn't been mentioned here.........Gene and Paul fired Eric on his death bed to help lower their Insurance costs. Eric was an employee of the KISS corp. , who were actively shopping for a new insurance company, so to defray those costs, they canned Eric. Eric was heartbroken at having been replaced, seeing that all he ever wanted was to be the drummer in KISS. Because of this Gene and Paul were denied access to Eric for the last several weeks of his life, and Eric Carr, by all accounts a sweet, caring, kind soul, died devastated at having been fired.

    Kiss as a band are very talented people, but the talent stops with Gene and Pauls assholeness. At least to me.
