Meeting KISS in the summer of 2003 right after their new album, KISS Symphony: Alive IV, was released.

This Sunday I head to Miami for KISS Kruise III. KISS is my all-time favorite rock band, and as you can see from the photo above, I had the honor of meeting them 10 years ago. So spending five days at sea with KISS is naturally the only way to top that first experience. Not only will I get to see them perform twice – an acoustic set without makeup and a show with makeup and the whole nine yards – but I’ll also get to meet and get my photo with the band, see other concerts on the ship, including Night Ranger, and engage in numerous fun activities, not to mention all the standard fare that comes along with cruises. Simply stated, it’s going to be an awesome trip I’ll be talking about for years to come. You won’t hear from me until I return, but when I do I’m sure I’ll have plenty of stories, photos and videos to share.

Until then, here are some clips from previous KISS Kruises:
