  • Me, me, me,me,me is how he warms up for interviews.

    I just wish this narcissist wouldn’t make it about himself. Trunk must remind you in every aspect of what he does that he knows everyone and everyone is his friend.

    Please Edward, remind us for the umpteenth time that you saw KISS at Madison Square Garden on December16, 1977.

    Well done Eddie, I too saw KISS in 1977 and was mesmerised by them through the seventies. Another great loss in my

    musical journey icon. Be well sir.
