TEARS ARE FALLING
Eddie Trunk ranting after Kiss drummer avoids him at NAMM; “When he saw me, he bolted into a door and hid”

SleazeRoxx — Heavy metal radio personality Eddie Trunk recently had an interesting run in — or lack of run in — with KISS‘ drummer Eric Singer at the NAMM convention, which is being held at the Anahei

m Convention Center in Anaheim, California, USA from January 19 to 22, 2017.

The following is a transcription from Sleaze Roxx of Trunk‘s YouTube audio recording below: “…there was none other than Eric Singer who currently plays in KISS of course and has for a long time, and I have talked about Eric‘s playing and what a wonderful player he is and all that for a long time and all the bands. And I have known Eric for a very long time and uh, you know, he was busy with fans doing his thing and when I got pulled back into this private room, this hallway with this private room. That’s where all these artists were hanging out, that’s where I saw CC and, and Eric Singer was right, like a step away from CC, and I think that he did not realize that it was me coming down the hall. You know, the dreaded toxic threat to all things KISS — Eddie Trunk [laughs] because Eric Singer, ladies and gentlemen, a guy that I have known forever and have said nothing but positive things about really except for the fact, and it’s not his fault but I just don’t like what KISS has done making Eric and Tommy [Thayer] dress as Ace [Frehley] and Peter [Criss]. That’s all [laughs] I’ve ever said. It’s unbelievable [laughs]. In decades of support, that’s all I’ve ever said but I have been painted because of that opinion that so many other share as the supreme enemy right?

So I was actually going to say, “Hey Eric. Good to see you man.” Shake his hand and that was it right? This dude, when he saw me, like he bolted into a door and hid like you could not believe. And it was actually so silly and so ridiculous but that’s how those guys unfortunately are. Instead of just [laughs] being adults and saying “Hi.” It’s li

ke you would think what I ever did in this world to that band beyond supporting them 99.9% of the time, it’s laughable, it’s silly, it’s dumb and it was just — actually, I got a chuckle out of it. The guy literally — like dust — like poof was gone. He went behind this door. He had this security guy. You could tell the security guy was nervous making like the [inaudible] sign that [laughs] Eric wasn’t going to come out unless me — out of all — the threat of all, the toxic threat was removed. I could sense what was going on. Others kind of confirmed it later on. Like you know what, it’s so dumb [laughs] that I will, that I will gladly move on to other things so that’s what I did and I went…”
