Kiss Forever Band

Kiss Forever Band

Established Hungarian musicians formed Kiss Forever Band in 1995. Zoltán Váry became Starchild (Paul Stanley), Pocky The Demon (Gene Simmons), "Space Ace" Zoltán Maróthy assumed the role of Ace Frehley, and "Catman" Tobola Csaba was cast as Peter Criss. Previously members of cutting edge groups, the boys started out to just have fun and play their favorite Kiss songs on stage.

The group formed for the pure joy of playing went on as a part-time band for nearly three years. Every few months they would play in clubs large and small to overwhelming response from the crowd. The music was up to par with the original Kiss, and as time went by the stage show developed as well. Demon breathed fire and spit blood, and flashpots and fireworks exploded on stage.

The members of the group that started part-time only to turn big-time enjoy the fact that they can play their favorite songs with such resounding success. On stage they can assume their mentors' personalities, or at least appearances. They are aware of their responsibility in doing so, since this way they have to satisfy the heightened expectations of their fans.
