Blog, Music, News and More! 12 Years strong!KISS unplugged 2015. Ouch. Gene calls out Paul

The band KISS has been a life long “hero” band of mine. Well since my little brother somehow talked our Grandmother into buying KISS ALIVE I way back in the day. I remember clearly her asking David if this was the band that sang about “nasty” stuff. He said it wasn’t so that album went into the shopping cart instead of back to the album rack. Then a few months later we saw KISS in concert in 1978 and everything changed! We were totally hooked! Grabbing everything up from magazines to giant wall posters. KISS could do no wrong! I even rushed home from passing out Western Auto flyers at BigK to watch the debut of “KISS Meets the Phathom of the Park”! Quite possibly one of the campiest movies of the 70’s but I loved it.

We know time changes everything. People get old. I, like little Jackie Paper, grew up too. But I still like KISS and have seen them several times thru out the years. But recently Paul’s vocals have deteriorated to the point that he needs to either take a long break, or retire. Let us remember KISS as they were. The “Kings’ of the Night Time World”. Not as they are now. It’s sad… It’s sad that my Hero’s grew old too.
Here is a recent unplugged set. See for your self 🙁
