Ex-KISS guitarist Bruce Kulick has posted pictures from the recent MONSTER CIRCUS show taken by Rick Gould, whom Kulick refers to as "the best in the biz", on his official website. Go to this location to check them out.

Below is Kulick's recap of the event, followed by some video footage:

"Well the big day came and went fast, and it was simply amazing. No one really knew what to expect (including me) but the idea of having great players rocking on stage backed by a totally cool Vegas style experience was pulled off without a glitch at the Hilton in Las Vegas on December 9th.

MONSTER CIRCUS was formed by Tony Montana (GREAT WHITE), Rudy Sarzo (ex-OZZY OSBOURNE, QUIET RIOT, WHITESNAKE, DIO) and John Corabi (ex-MÖTLEY CRÜE). These three asked Bobby Rock to play drums and myself to join them on stage, with Dee Snider and Dave Kushner as the special guests to play 9 classic hits along with a great show that included fire breathers, pyro, dancers and tight rope style performances in a totally Vegas over-the-top manner.

The Hilton stage, home to BARRY MANILOW Manilow of late but most famous for ELVIS PRESLEY from his VEGAS years, was simply put an amazing place to perform. Using Elvis's dressing room and getting a tour of some of the private rooms built for Elvis for his famous performances was quite a thrill. The band rehearsed in LA for a week and then it was off to Vegas for a day and a half of rehearsal with the dancers etc. It was a miracle how quickly it all came together.

Admission to the show was free for agents, fans and press alike, all were definitely impressed, and I was very proud of everyone involved. Dee Snider (TWISTED SISTER) is a great performer, and I was very proud of John and the band for being tight and exciting. The way Monster Circus is set up the band can have different members rotate in and out depending on the individual players' schedules, and I look forward to a chance to do the show again when possible.

So let's hope it gets picked up in Vegas, as it is was a great night and I got to have some fun in a place where Elvis made history. Keep your eyes out for more Monster Circus, and I would like to thank everyone involved again for making this a very rewarding experience. Thanks for the invite!"
