Letters

Hey guys,

Look what I found in the mail today: it's a My Little Gene Simmons. I had this combination of My Little Pony and Gene Simmons made by an artist called Mari Kasurinen. Check out her other ponies, like My Little Batman and My Little Darthvader, on www.marikasurinen.com

Rock on,
Bart

I am a life long KISS fan (first concert 1977, Hartford, Rock n Roll Over tour) and I do all the posters for the Atlanta Rollergirls Rollerderby Team. A lot of the girls are big KISS fans as well, so I created a tribute to my favorite band for the the Girl's Championship bout poster. It is the most popular poster I have done for them. Unbelievable response! Can't wait for the new album! Make sure you bring the next tour to Atlanta because we are ready to ROCK!

Hi KOL,

some days ago I told you about my "birthday trip" for the first Canada shows. Now, I wanna tell you 3 funny stories about "KISS brings people together". Just before the Windsor show I met a friend from myspace (yes, these people really exist, lol). I told him, that I`m his friend from Germany. He and his friends were really surprised and we talked all the time before the show with them about our KISSmania. After the show he took us home and we got the honor to visit his private KISS museum. We had a lot of fun! It is one of the best KISS collection we ever have seen. Thanx for sharing with us. At 2am, we left and he showed us the way out of town, thanx K.

The 2nd story started 2 years ago on Cadott Rockfest / Wisconsin. My husband and I went there for the show all the way from Germany and we met there a great guy from Wisconsin. Before the show started, we talked awhile and had a good time. Back in Germany we started to send us emails and since 2 years we have a big connection, not only talking about KISS. We hope to see C. on the following tour again. G. from KISS Army Australia is the 3rd guy we met (last year in Melbourne on the Tour opening). Since this time, we are sharing a lot of photos each other and are talkin` about the new tour in Australia (thank you G. for your invitation to the BBQ during the next tour, lol).

Yes, KISS brings people together, thanx all of you to be our friends on the other side of the world.

Keep on rockin'

THIS LETTER IS ABOUT THE PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT ARE STILL WRITING THE NEGATIVE STUFF ABOUT KISS.I'VE BEEN AROUND FOR MORE THAN 34 YEARS AND HAVE SEEN IT ALL WITH KISS. THE HIGHS AND LOWS.BEEN MAD AND HAPPY WITH THE WAY THINGS SEEM TO GO WITH KISS.IT'S TIME FOR ALL OF US TO COME TOGETHER UNDER ONE BANNER [KISS]. DOESN'T MATTER WHO'S PLAYING IN KISS,WHAT MAKE-UP SOMEONE IS WEARING. LET IT ALL GO AND JUST ENJOY WHAT KISS IS ALL ABOUT. FUN.YOU HAVE TO ADMIT.NO OTHER BAND COULD BECOME M&M'S.ROCK ON KISS I'M STILL WITH YOU.SOS

Hey KISS just wanted to let you know you guys are lightning in a bottle and Paul Stanley your the F*N man. Went to the KISS concert in Paso Robles and on Friday went to the godsmack/ motley crue concert at Glen Helen and those bastards don't got nothing on KISS when it comes to rock N roll and pure heart. The only thing that burns my ass is that these turds try to jock the whole KISS style and towards the end of the show tommy lee was saying F#*$ KISS. Nonetheless, the KISS ARMY was present and accounted for based on the survey I conducted on the lawn (16K VS 3c. $REVENGE$

Hi Guys,

I have been a fan since 1976. I have never been more excited or jazzed about a Kiss album and tour as I am about this one. I demanded you guys to come to Pensacola several times. I can't wait. You guys are the greatest of all time.

Sincerely,
David Wilson

My name is Samantha and I am 8 years old. I got to meet Eric at the Kiss Coffeehouse anniversary and he said to me, " Well hello their sweetie, I love your makeup, you look just like me" he then gave me a hug, and took a picture with me and said I looked "adorable"...I can't wait for the fall tour to see Eric and KISS!!! he is my favorite KISS member now!!!!

The hottest band with the biggest heart!!! I was recently taking my 13 year old son to his 1st KISS concert when a week before the show he was run over by a car.The accident left him in hospital for 22 days.When hearing of this the band sent him a KISS package with 4 shirts,a swearshiet and a autographed program.Just goes to show that the band truely cares about their fans.

Hey,

I just wanted to say that I really enjoyed the concert in Halifax. It was my second time seeing KISS. The last one was the Toronto KISS/Whitesnake show. KISS kicked Whitesnake's @$$. Anyways, you guys were really fun to watch and it was awesome being right up front. Caught a pick too. Looking forward to the new album. Come back soon.

I've been watching the tours since Destroyer, and having viewed every possible clip and report from Europe to South America and now Canada, here's my summary:

Tommy: not a stand-in, not a temp, not an imitator. Full-fledged 100% member, the real deal. I'm tired of him being depicted as a guy hired to be Ace. I saw Ace a dozen times and Tommy could play circles around him. Enough is Enough!

Eric: unsong hero. His fills, his energy, his professionalism... Night after night the guy is getting it done, reinvigorating the sound and driving it hard.
Paul: still the leader of the pack, showing the best front man presence of his entire career. But he is going to shred his throat into hamburger if he doesn't stop singing so damn hard. Give us 100% of that voice, Paul, not 200%! We need you strong for the Fall!
Gene: have no idea what has gotten into him, but he is playing these shows with more focus and drive and fun than I have seen for many, many years. It's not just that he's having "a good night" here and there, just watch the clips! What's up, Mr Simmons?
Band: how many lives do these guys have? We had the Destroyer turning point, the "hungry with something to prove" Creatures shows, the sheer force of Revenge, the exuberance of the Reunion..but this? I never expected such unity and energy and shows that are so consistently strong. Whatever you're doing, keep doing it!
