From: Kulick.net Fall is here! Busy of course and I have so much to tell you all. Just came back from the big Arlington Texas Guitar show the largest vintage guitar show in the world. I was a kid in a candy shop of course! Vintage Guitar magazine asked me come and play and I was thrilled to be there as their guest. I was able to jam with some famous players that I admire. Some you might not know them, but in the guitar community they are highly respected. My angle for performing would be to jam and showcase a terrific singer guitarist from Ft Worth, TX who I met many months ago through the Grand Funk band. Missi St Thomas is like the two woman in HEART all rolled into one powerful package. So when it came to jamming at the show, I brought her up to sing whatever she wanted and the guitar masters would follow. Made quite a splash at the event. Red Volkaert is famous for his incredible Telecaster picking skills, and has worked the country scene for years. I was in awe of his ability. Wolf Marshall is well known for his many styles and his instructional products for many years. It was an honor to jam with them all. Missi St Thomas, asked me to produce some songs for her, so me and my new music partner, Jeremy Rubolino, who has been working hard co-writing and will co-produce my next solo disc got busy with Missi here in LA. We all collaborated on three killer tunes, and recorded them at various studios in LA. We will be mixing this week, and I know that the music will make Missi and everyone involved shine. More news all about her songs and how you can hear them coming soon. In the meantime, be sure to check out her web page. Others at the Texas show that I should mention are Dave Amato from REO, a good friend, and Andy Timmons from Danger Danger. I was meeting the fans and selling some ESP Live in Japan CDs at the show, and the reaction to me being at a vintage guitar show was well received. I am featured on the back of the new Vintage Guitar Price Guide, with a pix and quote. That is an amazing magazine. Of course the prices of some the old guitars are NOT for the faint of heart! Proud of the ESP CD that is selling now. You can order at www.ericsingerproject.com. The DVD is coming, just taking a little longer to get it all right. I will have the news next week for when that can be ordered. Same link will work for getting that DVD. Really excellent stuff on both products. Speaking of ESP, I went to the Cat Club last week here in LA, and saw the Starf*ckers with John Corabi jamming all night long. I got up and played guitar with them for two Beatle songs: "Helter Skelter" and, of course, "Oh Darling", which actually ESP did in Japan as well. John sings that great. In the crowd was Jimmy Fallon, the actor comedian from SNL. He jammed with them and CC Deville from Poison showed up. Really was a fun night on the strip in LA. Of course October has been KISS crazy with Paul's LIVE TO WIN disc. Proud to be a part of the CD. I will catch him here in Los Angeles. I hear great things about the perfomances. Have not gotten a chance to smell the new KISS fragrance, but I know Gene has been busy promoting it. Also, the Butchering the Beatles CD is out now, and you all should check out. My track is "Drive My Car", with Kip Winger singing. Corabi sings a song, and Eric plays drums on a track as well. The Kissology DVD coming this month doesn't cover my era of KISS, but the next one will. Look for that one in the spring '07. I know these DVD's are a must for every KISS fan. Kudos to Don Brewer of Grand Funk for doing dates on the skins with Bob Seger. Great band and they have the perfect drummer. His shows wtih Seger do NOT affect our last two shows booked for Grand Funk, so definitely catch Bob with Brewer if you can. I usually travel to Europe or Australia in the fall, but this year I will only go to South America, playing and appearing in Lima, Peru for a big KISS event in December. Really excited about that as I loved when KISS went to SA, and when UNION and myself went to Argentina. The show will be held at Barza Marina Park on December 16, 2006 starting at 1:00p.m. Check my Tour Dates Page for more details as they become available. The other reason I am glad NOT to travel too much this fall is that I can get to work on my next solo disc. All the songs are almost done, so I am very excited about the material I have ready. Can't wait to share all the songs with you all. Allentown, PA KISS Expo was great, very well attended. And although I could only get 3 hours of sleep in order to get there from my GFR show in New Orleans, I was of course happy to be there and answer the questions for all the fans and sign and take photos. New Orleans is still not the city it was as you can imagine, but the show GFR did was amazing, with Edgar Winter as the opening act. I did get to visit the French Quarter, and I noticed some cool KISS stuff in the Hard Rock Cafe. Well, enjoy all the pictures. I hope your Halloween was fun. Keep in touch with me at my Myspace page or via email. All the best, BRUCE KULICK |
