Kiss: Do the right thing.


As we all know Kiss now has the lineup Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer in the makeup of Ace and Peter. Paul says that no band member owns their makeup Kiss character which last I read that wasn't true and that Gene and Paul own theirs. When you went to a Kiss concert you went to see Gene, Paul, Ace and Peter...not The Demon, Starchild, Spaceman and Catman. You went to see Ace's guitar smoke or hear him sing Shock Me or 2000 man. No distrespect to Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer. I understand what Paul is saying but any Kiss fan that goes to see them now will not be seeing in my eyes Kiss. You'll be seeing a "put together of musicians" version of Kiss. As for the new album Sonic Boom. I'm not impressed. Ace's new album Anomoly, although lacking lyric writing, blows the Sonic Boom away. His guitar work is heavy and on top of his game. His voice still sounds as good as ever. I didn't understand why Kiss re-recorded (again) their top hits and packaged them with the new Sonic Boom. Then again, that's Gene for ya. Bottom line...Tommy and Eric use your own makeup.
