For All You KISS Nuts


Sgt. Pepper

Recommended Posts

I loved KISS when I was a pre-teen and teenager, and I have seen them 4 times. I wore out KISS - Alive! when I was a kid. They blow s-hit up right from the get go in concert. I've seen KISS with my son twice. I will be watching and also rolling my eyes when Gene opens his yap.

“Biography: Kisstory” will document Kiss' nearly 50-year career over two nights on A&E this summer. The four-hour documentary will air over two nights on June 27 and 28 on the cable network.

In 1975 a friend from school played a KISS    Album for me.  I was 13.  I thought it was the greatest thing I’d ever heard. 
For the next 4 or 5 years they were my favorite band. 
 

I still enjoy listening to their earlier albums.  It was that band that started my whole journey into the world of rock and roll music.

I've never kissed ANYONE's nuts!

If you did would you admit it anyway?

Once Dynasty came out, I said to my 14 year old self, WTF is this c-rap. I had been a KISS nut since about the age of 8 or 9. I didn't listen to KISS for at least 20 years after that unless it came on the radio or MTV. Why couldn't KISS pick 4 or 5 more songs for KISS - Alive II (which I got for Xmas when it came out). I never understood why side 4 was a studio side. Its KISS - Alive II for cryin out loud or shout it out loud.

I have to admit...I was never a KISS fan, although I like Gene Simmons....I doubt I could name even one of their songs..... I think they came out in the late 70's or early 80's, right?   I was DONE with music during those years..... I started playing again (with earnest) maybe mid-to-late 80's.

was never a Kiss fan but lately  ( last year or 2 ) Gene has been hanging in a town near here getting up  with the locals and playing bass like  average people and not being big headed  just playing to play,  I think thats  cool.

If all you can think about is how to make more money after you've already made enough for your family to remain gazillionaires for generations, then you have a personality disorder. 

The $5 wig is the icing on the cake. Sad. 

Who's place is it to tell someone that they've made too much money?    Sounds like Socialism/Communism to me.    I say make what you can....it's no one's business but you and your heirs.

No shocker that he hangs in Canada, his wife is a Canuck.

I think saying he plays the bass is a stretch. Chris Squire played the bass, John Entwistle played the bass, Jaco played the bass. Gene eh he hits a note or two. How come that tool gets to go to Canada and I can't?

 I can't find it on YT anymore but watching him get schooled by Carol Kaye was hilarious. I'll be with his big ego he had it taken off YT.

My point was maybe it would be better to enjoy the wealth rather than seeking out new things to copyright to make even more. His focus appears to be more on money than enjoying said money. 

Actually copyrighting the image of a bag with a $ sign on it... Jesus. Maybe that time would be better spent making new music? 

Yes, I know he doesn't care what I think.

You can always be buried in a KISS Kasket when you go and line his pockets even in death. You thought I was kidding huh.

maybe cause his wife is Canadian....maybe he has both passports ,maybe he lives here,  how come you call people you dont know names like tool and worse,  on a public all ages forum,  shows ignorance if you ask me ....ps you quote me too much.
