Seeing as the band has long since parted ways with Universal, I imagine Gene had exactly zero to do with this.

I know a good amount of otherwise sensible people that like kiss. Maybe I'm missing sumthin? I realize music is a matter of taste, I like some simple,*strait-ahead rock & roll and I'm not bashing kiss fans, but whatever it is that people like aboot this band escapes Me.

*straight also acceptable

Is it sad that whenever I hear of Gene Simmons I think of his damn theme song?

/This is the Gene Simmons Fam-uly Jewels...

I have noticed that Farkers hate Gene Simmons.

 
Dr. Fritz Rotwang 2008-09-20 09:41:47 AM  
Kiss is putting out rehash product for no other purpose than profit and greed? I'm shocked, SHOCKED I tell you.

/I still love 'em. Please don't tell anybody.

Lets be fair. It's hard for anyone who has seen a few episodes of Family Jewels to not see the guy as a tool.

I wouldn't mind having the Ace Frehley part of the box set.

Yeah, it would be a fitting tribute to his life and tragic death.

I don't trust people who don't like KISS.

Word.
I loved the set they put out a few years ago with all the demos from the days before they were KISS. Those also had all the cool alt versions of the solo stuff.
I'm a huge KISS fan, but I don't think I will buy this.

He's not dead, he's pining for the fjords!

What, no Vinnie Vincent disc?

It's hard for anyone who has heard Gene Simmons' interview for Fresh Aire to not think he's a total douchebag

I find it disconcerting that one of my earliest childhood idols is such a loathesome piece of shiat.

/loves Kiss

Yeah, I feel your pain.

you mean Chaim Witz?

Yes Gene is a douche.

But I still like.

1. Hard Luck Woman
2. God of Thunder
3. Detroit Rock City

Never was a huge Kiss Fan.

A George Harrison Beatles disc in this vein sounds good to me.

Apparently not. Hard Luck Woman was written by Paul Stanley and sung by Peter Criss.
