Letters

Dear KISS,

As a survivor of a drunken driving incident that nearly killed me when I was 8 weeks old and did kill my mother, I perform an alcohol awareness program called, "The Magic of Life" for high school and college students.

Not only does it combine comedy, audience participation and my personal story, but I proudly show my KISS Army stripes as I wear a KISS shirt each and every time on stage. Your influence to pursue our dreams and to be ourselves is an important life lesson that I share with each audience. In terms of peer pressure with students, I tell them what it is like to be a KISS fan and how we need to be proud of who we are, and not to let people bring us down.

Here is a link to my 8 minute promo that I wanted to share with you:

As you have been a huge part of my life, I wanted to share with you as you have shared with me. I am amazed on how many KISS fans, young and old I meet within each audience. This is my way of paying homage to a band that has meant so much to me.

Thanks again for being such an amazing influence on my life.

Sincerely,
Michael Gershe
