Let's make this birthday one to remember.

81 years old (Born on December 29, 1943)

Happy Birthday to the legendary Bill Aucoin! The man who managed KISS through their fiery stage antics, face paint extravaganzas, and rock 'n' roll mayhem—proving once and for all that behind every great band is an even greater manager holding a fire extinguisher. Your genius turned glam-rock chaos into gold records; without you, Gene Simmons might still be breathing fire in his garage.

And let's not forget your groundbreaking work on "Supermarket Sweep," where contestants raced around grocery aisles like Paul Stanley sprinting toward glittery boots on sale. Here's hoping your birthday rocks harder than Manowar's amplifiers cranked up to eleven!
