I've never been starstruck before at a show where I was like, I feel weird about to go on stage.
I'm about to go on stage. It wasn't a normal show. It just couldn't be a normal show. It was just too
weird to me. When I was a little kid, like a little seven or eight years old or whatever the

greatest thing in the history of the world. This is the greatest band of all time. I was a huge,
huge Kiss fan. So to be standing there as a grown man, and he's a grown man, and we're at my show,

When they were hugging me, I felt like their child.
All of them towered.
Were the cameras following them around for the reality show?
No, it was legit. It was just a regular show.
