Continuing on our Countdown to NAMM. Here on Day 94, we would like to bring to you our chat with Tommy Thayer of KISS from NAMM 2015. One of our highlights from our NAMM 2015 coverage was when we checked out Tommy’s new Limited Edition White Lightning Signature Les Paul by Epiphone and highlighting the Hughes and Kettner Tritone amp. You can check out more about his Guitar by visiting http://www.epiphone.com/News/Features/2015/New-for-Spring-2015.aspx and Hughes and Kettner for the Triamp Mark 3 here: http://hughes-and-kettner.com/. We had the chance to briefly chat with Tommy at the Hughes and Kettner booth and you can watch it here:
In addition to Tommy meeting fans and signing autographs, he made a special guest appearance at the NAMM JAM 2015 performing two songs with headliners, Steel Panther. It was an amazing treat and everyone was on their feet as they played KISS’s I Like It Loud and Steel Panther’s Gangbang at the Old Folks Home. It was awesome to see Tommy shred and rock the crowd with his intense energy.
Check out a video from Tommy’s performance with Steel Panther:
