GENE ON GLENN MARTIN DDS

Here's yours truly with Kevin Nealon, the star of the forthcoming new cartoon on Nick At Nite, GLENN MARTIN DDS. Michael Eisner is producing. I was asked to play....me. The show is about a family whose house burned down, so they get into their motor home and travel the country. The script was very funny.

Watch for it.

THANK YOU, ERIC!

On behalf of McKinley Children's Center s Board of Directors and most importantly the kids, I would like to express our appreciation to 'Eric Singer' for his recent visit to our center.

The children that live in the residential program come to McKinley because they have been victims of abuse, abandonment and neglect. The kids in our Canyon View School have learning disabilities, emotional disturbances, behavior disorders, Autistic Spectrum disorder and other health impairments that have not been successful in a more traditional school setting. Eric Singer took the time to stop by for a few hours and visit with these children.

It was amazing how he interacted with the 160 kids that came to the dining hall during their lunch to find 'Eric Singer' handing out t-shirts to them. In addition, his friend Rhonda Rudolph handed out her children s books. The kids were so excited to receive the tee-shirts and books that they distributed. It was amazing how he made each child feel special and he took time to personally talk to them. Afterwards, he took two boys that had received a recent award out to lunch.

What an opportunity for both Michael and Nick to spend a couple hours just chatting with Eric and his friend Rhonda Rudolph over lunch. This was a once a lifetime opportunity for these boys!

McKinley Children's Center was truly honored to have Eric Singer visit our campus and get to know the children better.

THANK YOU Eric for adding a bright spot to the kids lives.

Rhonda J. Beltran Director of Development McKinley Children's Center www.mckinleycc.org .

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PETER!

Happy Birthday to original KISS drummer, Peter Criss!

We hope you have a PURRFECT day!

PAUL SINGS 'LICK IT UP'

Here are a few photos of Paul from the invitation-only Gibson Guitar launch of their new guitar, Dark Fire. The launch featured a performance from Steel Panther, the LA based glam metal parody band, known for their energetic live show that pays tribute to the heyday of 80's glam metal.

On the way out the door with his son Evan, the band called out, asking Paul to get up and sing. They launched into 'Lick It Up' and the place went crazy. In top form, Paul tore the place up! Afterwards, they hammed it up for some '80's style' photos!

#1 ALL TIME TOP SONG

Over 50,000 listeners of the Athens, Greece radio station, KISS FM 92.9, voted 'I Was Made For Lovin' You' their #1 All Time Top Song!

Thanks to our friends at the Greek KISS ARMY for the news.
