Serious question... Is Tommy Thayer a full member of KISS or is he simply a sideman? All this talk of "not his decision" makes me think that he has no say in anything hence he's must not really be a band member in the fullest sense of the word.

He's not. He and Singer both are salaried employees.

Then he does what he's told. His only say is to hit the road and join the musicians unemployment line (or start a KISS tribute act for considerably less money).

I had a dooosh for a boss before and I made less money all year than he "probably" makes in a week so it's hard to feel sorry for him for too long.

What doesn't make sense? KISS threads draw a lot more detractors than they do fans - people who can't stand KISS and hate them will take any opportunity that presents itself to talk about them.

yes.

It's the Yngwie Malmsteen effect. :laugh2:

Of course.

Kinda what I was just thinking.
Actually not that I think poorly of him but to think of him in any way at all to have a signature guitar ,......NO

Come on guys, Gene put a lotta time into getting that endorsement, at least an hour and a half. He really had to work for his 60% of Tommy's take.

Why is it an Epiphone? Is nobody as shocked about that as I am?
