June 9 : Adam
Bomb talks about his
1982 audition for KISS

Dirk Ballerstaedt recently did an interview with Adam Bomb for
SleazeRoxx.com.
As some KRR visitors may know Adam Bomb did audition for KISS to
replace Ace Frehley in 1982.
SleazeRoxx: Before you headed to Los Angeles and did your very
first solo album, I heard that you auditioned for KISS. How did that
happen?
Adam Bomb: I read an ad in Billboard magazine that 'a major
group is looking for a guitar player'. I sent a tape to them with
the TKO songs, a photo and a bio and then Paul Stanley called me. I
think they already had Vinnie Vincent but were checking out more
people. First of all they were looking for six foot tall guys that
were at least over twenty years old -- at this time I was 17. I met
KISS and we played a few songs together like "Detroit Rock City",
"Firehouse", "Calling Dr. Love" and "Black Diamond".
SleazeRoxx: So they didn't hire you because you were too young?
Adam Bomb: I was 17, I was a baby. Look at me now, I was shorter
than Eric Carr. I did my guitar solos with them but I wouldn't have
been a good fit because I did a few drugs and went on the dark side
while KISS was a serious band with all the things they have to do.
