We're kicking off KISSmas in July with an unforgettable guest that's got loads of entertaining stories as we present Storytime with Diamond Tim! Diamond Tim is a Nashville native that grew up as the stepson of the city's longtime sheriff, Fate Thomas. Between his insatiable fandom for KISS and his connections to the city leader, Tim was able to get access to KISS in many different ways over the years. From his first concert in Nashville during 1979's 'Dynasty' tour to hanging backstage with the band on the 'Creatures of the Night' tour to presenting members of the band with keys to the city jail to much more, Tim had some amazing run-ins with members of the band. In this long form discussion, Diamond Tim shares his personal KISStory, his meetings with the band, his thoughts on the many changes of the band and much more. Additionally, he would go on to work for the band, interview members at conventions, and even go fishing with Peter Criss! On top of all of that, Tim's got a personality that'll have you laughing throughout the episode; we certainly did. We hope you enjoy Storytime with Diamond Tim and SHARE with a friend!
