He confirmed his participation in the special performances, as reported by Ultimate Classic Rock.<\/p>\n<p>The former KISS guitarist discussed his role in the upcoming shows and what fans can expect from the performances.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ll be joining them on some songs. We haven\u2019t [figured out a] set list yet. It\u2019s a little too far away, but I\u2019m excited about that,\u201d Kulick said. \u201cI did that quite a few times on the [past cruises], both electric and acoustic.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kulick also revealed the broader scope of the planned event.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut right now, for sure, I\u2019m involved with that night, at which they plan on having a lot of special guests,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n<p>The shows promise to feature multiple guest appearances alongside Kulick\u2019s participation.<\/p>\n<p>This upcoming performance marks another chapter in Kulick\u2019s enduring relationship with KISS. He made significant contributions during a pivotal era in their history.<\/p>\n<p>Guitar Player reported that Kulick served as KISS\u2019s lead guitarist for 12 years during the non-makeup era. He contributed to multiple gold and platinum albums and played hundreds of live shows worldwide. His tenure with the band was marked by consistent, high-energy performances that upheld KISS\u2019s legacy after Ace Frehley\u2019s departure.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond his work with KISS, Kulick\u2019s official website revealed that his career includes touring with Meat Loaf and forming the band Blackjack with Michael Bolton. These experiences enriched his musical background beyond his time with the legendary rock band. These diverse collaborations helped shape his versatile guitar style that fans came to appreciate during his KISS years.<\/p>\n<p>The guitarist\u2019s involvement in KISS cruise events has become a regular occurrence, as noted by Vinyl Writer Music. He has performed both electric and acoustic sets for fans. These intimate performances have allowed him to connect with KISS enthusiasts in a more personal setting than traditional arena shows.<\/p>\n<p>This upcoming KISS Unmasked event will provide another opportunity to celebrate Kulick\u2019s influential run with the band. It marks a significant moment for fans of the \u201cnon-makeup\u201d KISS era who witnessed some of the band\u2019s most commercially successful years under his guitar work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bruce Kulick has shared details about his upcoming involvement in KISS Unmasked shows.
