What are some of your favorite Rock & Roll/ Halloween moments whether it was TV appearances, Movies...etc

Right Now I'm watching Alice Cooper's appearance on the Muppet Show (Season 3)

Of course Kiss Meets the Phantom always holds a special place within me. I'll always remember watching it at Spanky Madoo's house when it first appeared on TV halloween week. We both set up portable cassette recorders & recorded the audio!

The movie 'Trick or Treat' may have been a bit lame but with Gene Simmons & Ozzy making appearances & the great soundtrack by Fastway I enjoyed the flick

^^I can't remember any right now Bucky,,,when Halloween was big in my life during my teenage years I was out vandalizing and causing trouble...:peek

Nothing permanent though, waxing windows, egging a few idiots houses that we had trouble with over the years stuff like that...I know it's embarrassing when I think back to those days but when we got caught by the RCMP, that put an end to nefarious activities for me.

^^ Not that good of a movie but wasn't all KISS' fault...the European Theatrical Cut is MUCH better...but it was still a "feed the line" type film. They were approached and they said ok. True story...Ace was watching a premiere of the movie with the guys back when it came out, and couldn't stop laughing at the screen. He said , "It was the funniet ****in thing I ever seen in my life" :lmao:

Anyone that knows Ace's laugh will find that hilarious...he da man. :grinthumb

On that note...it's a cool feel good movie for memories if you grew up in the 70's...one of those "had to be there" sort of moments.

Groovy took my Paul Lynde thought so I dunno....

I will say this...

KISS on MAD TV...KISS always brightens up a Halloween show...also these clips (which I have at home as well) show that the chemistry of the original 4 goes un matched.

Tom Snyder: "So You're a Spaceman?" Ace: "Actually I'm a plumber!"

Paul: "but the greatest thing about the success we've got now is that we're basically free to do anything we want." Ace: "Like this!" Tom: What are you doing?" Peter: "He's ruining your teddy bear" Ace: "It's a regular space bear! Space bear! The only space bear in captivity! I got him, he's captured!"
LOL!!! :oyea:

Tom: "Come on Gene, call him off, please!"

Good times MP LOL!!! Ace's laugh hehe

^^^ I remember all those shows very well. I was a member of the Kiss Army at that the time the movie came out. I defended the movie for the next week but knowing it was awful. These guys were my icons. I would of died for them back in the day.
