Sunday, July 12: Remembering Kiss Drummer Eric Carr on His Birthday

Today (July 12) would have been one time Kiss drummer Eric Carr's 65th birthday. Carr was the drummer for Kiss from 1980-1991. He took up the persona of 'The Fox' in the band during the makeup era as the replacement for 'Catman' Peter Criss.

Eric Carr passed away after a battle with heart cancer at the age 41 on November 24, 1991 (coincidentally, the same day that Queen frontman Freddie Mercury passed). He is interred in Cedar Hill Cemetery in Newburgh, NY.
