HOTTER THAN HELL!!
Hotter Than Hell is THE ULTIMATE KISS TRIBUTE BAND.
I met HTH at the 2000 KISS expo in Nashville. They were a suprise guest and when I saw the guys just wander out into the crowd in full get up..I wigged out. They looked so much like the real guys that I just couldn't keep my eyes off of them...I was left speechless. They are the sweetest guys ever..altho at the time I met the older line up...they have new members now.
But one of the older members is Andrew French. He's the coolest guy ever. He played Peter Criss in HTH. When he's not on tour with the band we'll meet up occasionally and he's just and outstanding person and I know that he's the same kind of musician. PROPS TO FRENCH!!! :o)
Check out their site..it rocks...
God Bless you guys!!
Aside from Hotter Than Hell, I want to include another KISS tribute band called "Alive II". Andrew French left HTH and is now currently playing with them. I haven't heard them play, but with a front man like Gary Stevens (who was Paul in HTH) and a drummer like Andrew French, the band is sure to be awesome! Here's a bio on ALIVE II.
BAND BIOGRAPHY & FEEDBACK

Looking for the quintessential KISS tribute band? Look no further. ALIVE II's incredible tribute to the hottest band in the world includes members who performed with some of yesterday and today's hottest musical acts such as Eddie Money, The Raspberries, Eric Carmen, Hootie and The Blowfish, Alan White of Yes, Mitch Ryder, and Gary Lewis and The Playboys among many others. In addition, two of the members were hand-picked by KISS themselves, to double for them in the KISS movie 'Detroit Rock City'.

Bringing you professionalism and authenticity like never before, ALIVE II is ready to rock and roll you all night!
