Hi, I'm Jon, 45 years young and have been a KISS fan since I was 12. I have as a hobby which I have been doing since 2001 a Rock radio show, where KISS appear on regularly. Included you will find a review of mine for a local music and culture paper called "CLIP".

I was eight years old in 1978 when my brother and first cousin of five and six years older respectively introduced me to Kiss. I remember a poster in my girlie bedroom of a haunting silver and white with each band member's face in a corner and the band in the center and how in my young years that each of you seemed like something out of this world, not human, untouchable. You were my first band. "Kiss Meets the Phantom" was my first movie. As the years have passed, I have heard jokes and unkind comments about Kiss. However, I will never forget the magic you brought to my young years and how Kiss is literally an institution. I have come to love Gene Simmons although he scared the crap out of me as a kid. He is obviously a man of great character. Paul, you remain so beautiful and magical to this day. The appreciation you expresss for your fans is unparalled. "Reason to Live" is and remains my favorite song. The passion in the lyrics is more than I could ever describe. Thank you so much for all the wonderful years.

I want to say thank you for the greatest night of my life. I grew up loving KISS but was never allowed to listen to it loud or after 8pm. Finally after 30 years I was honored to attend the Concert in Portland and I was blown away. Thank you again... You are amazing.

To My All Time Favorite Band In The World KISS... Finally I was able to take my kids to a Kiss show in Seattle on November 15th 2009. I have been a fan for 32 years and have seen you guys 4 times now, and for my 37th Birthday I was able to enjoy my 4th show with my kids , and I have to say they were blown away. My 9 year old boy standing on his seat to my right hits me in the arm and says "Daddy you were right , I wont ever forget this" had the time of our lives and another amazing show by the best band out there .. Thanks Again.. And my kids and I would really like to see you guys make a stop in SPOKANE, WASHINGTON, so we can see you again and not have to drive so far...LOL Thanks again, stay safe on the road and keep ROCKIN...

Dear Paul, Gene, Tommy, Eric, We loved your show on November 15th at the Seattle Key Arena. The stage performance was orchestrated so beautifully, as it clearly displayed you amongst the truest of artist. How about the new CD! Sonic Boom. You guys keep extending the list of classics. At the show, we especially were drawn by your aura of love, appreciation, and fun spirit. The show was so vibrant, so impacting, surreality is the closest way to describe it. We love you guys, and hope to see more of you in the future. Keep in high spirits boys. We always believe in you. Thank you for being who you are. Our connection through music is a soul channel from ours to yours. Hail the KISS ARMY/Family. With Love and Support, Karen and John. Centralia, WA.

I am a life long KISS fan and now my 3 year old grandson Chase, love KISS. We have dug out old KISS trading cards and we watch U Tube videos. He goes onces a week to Rock school and has taken to it very well. He wants to play the drums and I have been searching for a KISS drum set for him and cannot find anything. Any suggestions. Thanks

Hey guys, KISS is my favorite band You guys are my heros Your music really sands out to me as the best. Im 10 years old so I'm in grade 5 and all i talk about is the recent kiss concert in Calgary Alberta Canada (thats where I live) Another thing is that our teacher told us we had to do a project about our heroes and I knew right from the beginning I would do kiss... Your guys music is nothing like any other bands. Im so much you're fan that me and my friends Joshua and Adam and my dad dressed up as Kiss for halloween. Keep rockin out!!! From: Andrea A.

HI there to the greatest band in the land! The only problem is that land is the US of A. Having released one of the best KISS albums ever, and a full-blown tour of the US of A to go with it. What about us poor KISS starved heavy metal maniacs in the UK? Having been a KISS fan since the early 70's along with millions of other brits, a Sonic Boom UK Tour and I mean a full tour,not the Download festival one-off appearance would be absolutely the best thing to happen here in years. In fact I can' remember the last time Kiss did a UK Tour - the last one I went to was the Revenge Tour. Surely since then, but WHAT ABOUT NOW??????? WE WANT KISS!! WE WANT KISS! Please give me an answer Lifelong fan Mark

Hey Guy, Just what to say thanks to you for many years of great shows and albums. It was in 1975 when I seen you all for the first time at the capital Center in Landover Md and now its my kids turn to carrying it on.
