#20 The musical continues...


Sorry for the delay..and belated Happy diwali.

Connect the above pictures

This question has been up for a long time but I am disappointed to see that no one has made an effort to answer it.

Answer: The connect is KISS(Band).

The Demon barber pic (Simmons), Starchild's skull (Stanley), Spaceman (Frehley), and Catman (Criss). The band explains that the fans were the ones who ultimately chose their makeup designs. The "Demon" makeup reflected Simmons' cynicism and dark elements, as well as his love for comic books. Paul Stanley became the "Starchild" due to his tendency to be referred to as the "starry-eyed lover" and "hopeless romantic." Ace Frehley's "Spaceman" makeup was a reflection of him wanting to go for a ride in a space ship and supposedly being from another planet. Peter Criss' "Catman" makeup was in accordance with the belief that Criss had nine lives due to his rough childhood in Brooklyn.
