Today Simmons & Stanley have replaced Criss & Frehley with Eric Singer on drums and Tommy Thayer on guitar. Each original member of the group designed his own make up Criss gave up his rights to his character when he left and Frehley licensed his out. In the meantime the former members are disappointed because they were not invited to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction. Their argument being valid..All of 175 Grateful Dead members were inducted, Red Hot Chili Pepper every member including deceased members...
Who knows what the future will bring. They can't do anything with the original members becasue so much time and money has been put into motion for these replacements. Simmons and Stanley don't seem bothered by the fact nor do they want to be working with a couple of Justin Biebers...
