DRESSED TO KILL - the FIRST ever European KISS tribute band - Formed in Dec 1989 when Gary (Gene) and Ash (Paul) discussed the idea over a game of KISS pinball at a KISSmas party held in London by Carol of KISS Crazy fanzine.......DRESSED TO KILL have played in more countries than ANY OTHER KISS tribute band: Switzerland, Austria, Spain, Sweden, Norway, Germany, Japan; and not forgetting Wales & Scotland!! .......DRESSED TO KILL are STILL the ONLY UK KISS tribute band to have ever played OUTSIDE of the UK & Ireland - For a KISS Tribute band to call themselves Europes premiere, they first have to play in mainland Europe: DRESSED TO KILL started their European domination with 4 shows in Austria and an Expo appearance in Switzerland in 1993, followed by a debut and then a return to play 3 shows in Sweden, and a debut in Norway at the 'Sentrum' in Oslo in 1994; And then continuing it with Expo appearances in Switzerland and Germany, and a return to Austria in 1995; And then 2 shows in Spain and another return to Austria in 2004, and a return to Spain in 2005............DRESSED TO KILL are the ONLY KISS tribute band to undertake a theatre tour of Japans major cities: Nagoya, Osaka, Hiroshima, Fukuoka, Tokyo, Niigata, and Sendai this came just months prior to KISS's Japanese leg of their Reunion tour, who played in 6 of those 7 cities................DRESSED TO KILL have been featured on Channel 4 (RI:SE & Rock School), Mtv (Headbangers ball), and NHK (Japanese satellite tv), and have been seen by more people than any other KISS tribute band, due to 'Rock School' being syndicated to the U.S, Australia, New Zealand, and Scandinavia, (AND the show also being available on DVD!); and both Mtv & NHK being beamed to the whole of Europe.............And in striving for authenticity, DRESSED TO KILL use only Gibson, Pearl, Zildjian, Ahead, Marshall, Ibanez, Spector, Washburn, Silvertone, Ampeg, and Epiphone, and have had replicas made of those instruments used by KISS where originals are no longer available. DRESSED TO KILL - DOING IT LONGER THAN ANY OTHER KISS TRIBUTE BAND.
