This picture is a lovely image of my dream.I all want is see Kiss alive. In this picture,i was in first place on Apoteose's show,from Alive 35 tour.My next dream is a tattoo with the four faces of atual band. I love you guys!

Dearest Paul, Gene, Eric and Tommy, My husband has been a huge KISS fan since he was a young boy and got a chance to meet the original KISS members backstage without their face paint. He fondly remembers Gene telling him not to tell his classmates what they looked like without their makeup because his classmates would not believe him anyway but of course, as a little boy, he was so excited and proud and told everyone he knew that he met KISS! : ) My husband's family also lived not too far from Gene's beloved mother, Florence before they eventually moved to Florida. The hubby has been to A LOT of KISS concerts and his last one, scheduled years ago at The Ford Amphitheatre in Tampa, was cancelled because Gene got sick. He has never been to a KISS concert eversince but still buys all the CDs and DVDs (or I buy them for him as presents for special occasions). We would like to thank KISS for always supporting our unsung heroes. Our WOUNDED WARRIORS. Your effort and generosity don't go unappreciated. More power to KISS and we hope to catch one of your shows in Florida in the near future. Sincerely, A U.S. Veteran's wife

Hey guys....i'm gonna be 50 next March and I started listening to KISS in the 70's of my childhood...all I ever wanted was to go to a KISS show but working & living on my own since a week before I graduated high school always left me "broke" & unable to afford tickets...I always wanted to see a live KISS show....but it has always been just out of my reach..I became disabled 10 years ago & had to stop running around...they told me to get a hospital bed & put it in front of the TV...I didn't like that answer so I obtained a walker, power chair & scooter and even though I have 6 discs missing in my back now I still try to get around...it's not easy & the pain can be unbearable at times but I must try to keep moving as best I can...I'm hoping some day I'll have a chance to see my fave group in person....I love u guys!!!

KISS IS EVERYWHERE! Hi, KISS In my country, on today's newspaper El Comercio there was an ad of Classical Music, with a baby KISS and the greatest masters of Classical Music. The ad says: Collet to the real Fathers of music. This week Beethoven. Greets from Quito, ECUADOR Hope you like it. Rock and Roll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I saw that Paul was offering the smashed guitar experience again on this tour and it brought back such great memories from when I did this last year that I wanted to take a minute to share my experience. When this was offered last year, my husband and I knew immediately that we just had to do it. Owning a guitar smashed by Paul on stage at the end of a KISS show is the ultimate collectible for the ultimate fan. From the moment I contacted the team, it was a great experience. On the day of the show, we met with Dean Snowden and got all checked in. A bit later, we met Dean near the entrance to the backstage area and he took us backstage and hooked us up with Fran, Paul�s guitar tech. Fran was awesome. We just hung out for a few minutes backstage, talked, and joked a bit. Fran had the guitar with him and handed it to my husband, joking around about how he carries guitars all day and needed a break. He took us up to the suite area where we would meet Paul. Fran got us some bottled water and we sat on a sofa waiting to meet Paul. Fran took a quick picture of us waiting in the suite and then went to check on Paul. We played with the guitar a bit and just talked excitedly. We had both met Paul before but this time just seemed different. Paul was awesome, as always. It was very relaxed and easy. We had been at the show the night before and Paul commented about remembering us from the night before. We talked with Paul and took a few pictures. Then it was time to go. We were both beyond ourselves with excitement for the moment when Paul would smash the guitar. I can't even describe the feeling at the end of Rock n Roll All Nite when Paul walked to the side of the stage and we saw Fran hand him the guitar that we just took pictures with a few hours earlier. Before Paul smashed the guitar, he found us in the audience and pointed to us while holding the guitar up. He kissed the guitar and then smashed it. After the show, Paul dedicated the guitar with the inscription that my husband requested. We met Dean after the show and went backstage to wait for the guitar. The guitar was given to us in Paul's signature gig bag and Fran had taped the set list from the stage to the back of the guitar. There was even confetti stuck to it! The guitar is now in a display case and is the centerpiece of our collection. You can still see the imprint from Paul's make-up where he kissed the guitar. It's such an indescribable feeling to watch Paul Smash the guitar that you know is going home with you! It was an amazing experience from start to finish and I would do it again in a heartbeat. I highly recommend this experience to anyone who wants the ultimate experience with the ultimate collectible to take home!

Hey Paul,Eric,Tommy, and Gene. I came to your show last August at Jones Beach and was blown away by your performance. You guys rock my socks off. So I was wondering if you could come back to the New York or New Jersey area sometime in the near future. Oh and some of my favorite Kiss songs include Strutter, Nothin to Lose, Cold Gin, Lick it Up and Radioactive from Gene's solo album. It would rock if you would do these songs on your next tour. I also hear that you have a new album coming out. Glad to see you guys are writing more new material. Oh and Paul congratulations I hear your wife is having a new baby. Thanks again and I look forward to rocking and rolling all night. When I see you guys I will shout it out loud.
