Letters

I saw Gaga last summer in Seattle. Part way through her theatrical musical show, she stopped and told the crowd her own KISS story. She had a couple of days off from her world tour and flew back to New York, just before her Seattle gig to see KISS in concert. She shared her KISS experience, saying she had been backstage and Gene and Paul had let her try on their boots and clothes and had talked about art and music. She credited KISS's rock theater as an inspiration in her life and her own incredible artistic expression. She spent about 4-5-6 minutes of her show time raving about her KISS concert experience. KISS were the originators of The Rock and Roll spectacle and theater. Lady Gaga is another offspring of The KISS seed. KISS gave birth to a genre and atleast a couple generations of musical marvel, talent and entertainment. I saw KISS as a teen, in 75 as their target market, young fan. I am 50 and still a fan of much music and theater AND of KISS. I see almost every show that blows through Seattle and KISS still brings the music and the show to a theatrical experience; visual, audio, tactile, stimulating all the senses. Thanks KISS for your talent and those you inspired. Your musical genetics live on with your own significant longevity and those born of your breeding. You have KISS'ed many!
