I just want time travel to exist so I can hug this man. I need a hug from him. A bear hug from him would solve all my worries.

June 18, 1980
On this day 44 years ago Paul Caravello submits an application to Aucoin Management for the recently open drummer spot within the rock band KISS. The deadline for applications had been the prior day but Paul submitted his application in a neon orange folder which got the attention of Aucoin’s secretary. Even though the deadline was missed she ultimately decided to pass the application along to Bill.
This unknown drummer would get an audition, and a little more than one month later would perform his first show with KISS as The Fox, Eric Carr.
When was the first time you saw Eric in concert with KISS?

I saw this photo in the tribute I reblogged last night and I thought it was from the God Gave Rock’n’Roll To You II video.
The hair was a bit of a giveaway. Not quite as beautiful as his own. I can’t imagine how much filming this video took out of him, but he was so determined to be part of it, even if he was miming Eric Singer’s drumming.
But those harmonies were real Carr magic. Thanks, Eric, for giving us this last piece of you.
I watch a music channel as I have brekky and when I switched it on this morning, this song was playing.

David (TLB) x Fem!Reader
Requested by @shadowcatgirl09
Halloween 2023 event
Make a request
Request: shadowcatgirl09 asked: David (TLB) + female reader and Every human needs a vampire #Halloween2023
Read on Wattpad
Read on AO3
Your eyes went wide as you realised that the person you’d been hanging out with was a vampire. The fact that he was a vampire. Not an issue. The fact that he was barreling down on you with bared fangs while hissing at you was.
Scrambling to your feet you bolted towards the crowds of the boardwalk and charged through the crowds. Pushing people out of your way as you hurried through to the other side and headed up the row of stores. Crashing into someone you yelled and panicked causing several people to stop and look over at you.
“What’s the rush?” You heard David say. You stopped fighting him and looked around. Marko and Paul had been stood behind David who helped you to your feet. They were staring at someone standing above the crowd on top of a stall. David stared at him for a moment before gesturing for Dwayne and Laddie to come over. They spoke quietly with Dwayne and directed you over to a stall that was out of sight.
“Wait what’s happening?” You asked. David grinned at you. A grin that made your skin tingle and crawl the way you imagined a rabbit would if a fox cornered it.
“Remember what I told you (Y/N).” David said calmly. To calmly. “Every human needs a vampire.”
“You’re going to…. Here now!” You asked but Dwayne scooped you up before you could ask any more questions and then, once you were inside the stall there was a dreadful brawling sound.
“Don’t worry. David will sort this guy out for you.” Dwayne said in a bored tone as if he was confident in what he was saying and that he didn’t even need to worry about the huge vampire fight going on outside in public.

random kiss facts (correct me if im wrong on some of these, i read them from articles and interviews)
⭐️
•ace frehley was allergic to the silver face paint, since its ground up metal. he passed out with the makeup on after getting drunk one night and woke up with his eyes swollen shut
•during the shoot of kiss meets the phantom of the park, ace was extremely high through most of the movie as one of the guys on the set was a coke dealer
•paul switched his makeup from the starchild to the bandit for a short amount of time due to the star makeup being "asymmetrical" and "too feminine"
•gene actually wanted eddie van halen to be apart of kiss, but paul didnt have any interest in him joining, and ace and peter "were too busy making bad decisions about life"
•peter never actually "proposed" to lydia. he said he wanted to get married while they were watching romeo and juliet. she never received an engagement ring
•lydia helped peter make his costumes before kiss got signed with casablanca and his costumes were made professionally
•after ace created the kiss logo, paul revised it with a sharpie and a ruler. he did it by eye, so the two lightning bolts arent identical. the band chose not to change that after getting a record deal
•during a concert, ace grabbed ahold of a railing that wasn't grounded properly and got shocked. he ended up playing the rest of the show with no feeling in his hand. this also inspired the writing of the song "shock me"
•if one band member ended up getting an sti (which was very very common back in their groupie days), the whole band would get it because they stored their clothes together while on tour
•ace got kicked out of 2 highschools and dropped out of 1
•paul did not like gene when he first met him. he thought he was self centered and insulting
•on the cover of their debut album, ace sprayed his hair silver because he thought it looked cool. peters makeup was done professionally, which is why the cover is the only time he can be seen wearing it
•eric carrs real name is paul caravello. since there was already a paul in kiss, they had to come up with a stage name for him. he suggested that his stage name should be "rusty blade," before deciding on eric carr
•vinnies ankh warrior makeup was designed by paul
•before kiss, paul and ace worked as cab drivers, gene worked as a teacher and peter was always apart of bands
•eric carrs original makeup design was supposed to be a hawk, but he decided to change it to the fox design after paul said he looked like big bird
•in recent years, paul started wearing knee pads under his costume due to his knees being scar tissue from falling on stage
•paul also wears a fake nail over his index finger from it being worn down by playing guitar
•gene used to accidentally swallow some of the kerosene he used to spit fire, which caused him to eat burnt toast to neutralize the poisons before seeking medical treatment
•ace got involved in a cop chase at 90mph. he was eventually arrested and charged with drunk driving, reckless driving and leaving the scene of 3 accidents
•before the hth album shoot, ace got into a car crash after getting drunk and crashing into a telephone pole.
•during the hth shoot (the ones on the back of the album) paul got so drunk that gene locked him in a car until the shoot was over
•into the void is the only song on the psycho circus album where every member played

My source is Eric Carr (Paul Caravello) from the band KISS.
My pronouns are he/she. I am bigender and multisexual/bisexual.
I would say that I don't stray too far from canon. I am not from any AUs. I have negative memories with Gene specifically, and romantic memories with Ace and Paul. I have very few memories with Vinnie.
I'd very much like to meet Ace or Paul again.
I am a factive in a system.
We are bodily 17. I am 36.
I have no preference with intra age. If you are considering romantic relationships to be a possibility, with chrono/bodily age, I'd prefer someone closer to our bodily age. 16-20, as we are turning 18 soon.
I am not looking for any specific relationship type. I would be glad to have friends. It would be great, too, if we could have more than that! But, of course, I am not going to be upset if someone does not want to date me
The host's blog is @transharmed . Feel free to DM or @ me!

I know I said I wanted to do posts to celebrate his life but my Pandora just ripped my heart out with this song
Feel free to add to this. This goes out to all the heartbroken fans out there. We'll continue to keep his memory alive 🧡🦊
@ericcarrwhatafox @thayerslayer @kisskrazed @kissmaidens-blog @kisspits
FFDP: I Refuse
Wake me up when this is over
I'm tired of living life like it's a dream
Please wake me up when it's all over
I'm tired of living right here in between
I refuse
I don't wanna let you know
That my heart is just so jaded
I refuse to let it show
I refuse to let it go
I don't wanna die alone
I don't wanna live forsaken
I refuse to let this go
Because my soul is breaking
I've always walked alone
I chose the path less taken
I refuse to let you in
Life's a bitch and I've been shaken
It's not a joke at all
Inside my spirit's fading
I refuse to take the fall
'Cause no one cares at all
Wake me up when this is over
I'm tired of living life like it's a dream
Please wake me up when it's all over
I'm tired of living right here in between
I refuse
FUCK CANCER. FUCK THE EMPTINESS. FUCK THE TIME CLOCK. FUCK THE PAIN. FUCK THE SUFFERING.

Remembering Eric Carr on his anniversary.
A Record Store Day special from April. The one and only time I’ve had to plug a record cover into a USB.
Pictured is the box before charging, plugged in and charging (red eye), and charged (glowing white eyes).
The two records contained within are vastly different from each other, showcasing his versatility. Two beautiful pictures of him on the drums on stage and a sweet cartoon style poster.
