On This Day…..

KISS……

January 30, 1973……

The glitter-rock group Kiss gives their first public performance – at New York’s Coventry Club in Queens. Less than 10 people attended. However, the band quickly built a following and became one of the best-selling bands of all time. The band’s lineup consisted of Paul Stanley (vocals and rhythm guitar), Gene Simmons (vocals and bass), Ace Frehley (lead guitar and vocals), and Peter Criss (drums and vocals).
