Classics Reborn

Kk is my new hero. He never lets the truth get in the way of a good story

 

[redfly]

Haha, it sounds to me like he's trying to get public opinion on his side. Funny how in all these years that this is really the first I'm hearing of how dysfunctional and dickish the other guys are. They must feel like real asshats now that KK is spreading the gospel...

 

[Slammed]

It is a funny way to treat your 'friends', although given that he used management to pass on his messages of well being to Tipton I think we can understand how much of a 'friend' he is.

 

[Slammed]

Aaahhh Rockstars.

I still have some of those magazines. Thankfully NOT the Paul Stanley on, good lord

 

[Slammed]

I remember seeing some of the ads in Metal Hammer and the like. They are funny to look at now though.

 

[redfly]

But still, the good ole days when talent was respected. Minus Paul Stanley on guitar lol.

 

[Slammed]

You are so harsh to Paul.

 

[redfly]

 

[Slammed]

It's not fair I tell you. Harshing on people because of what they one looked like in a photo is terrible. I was watching the clip for Tears Are Falling on Bravewords this morning and my wife pointed out how much Paul from 33 years ago looks like a teenage girl in one of the soapies on TV here. I tell ya people are just too quick to judge! Shame Shame Shame!

 

[redfly]

But that's the look he was going for!

 

[Slammed]

I don't think he had the choice. I think putting the make up on was a clever move, otherwise he'd have been mistaken for a girl leading a rock band

I heard on the tv before that it was on this day in 83 that Kiss took the make up off.

 

[redfly]

How long before they put it back on?

 

[Slammed]

I think it was the mid 90's they put it back on full time. Might have been later when they did the full reunion with Ace, but it was before 2000

 

[redfly]

Holy crap. Shut the fuck up! I can't believe JP doesn't have people on the line telling KK to cut the shit. Throwing the whole band under the bus to sell a few more books.

[Slammed]

Although Ian and Rob haven't been as bad as KK I think they are all riding on the publicity a bit.
I think with separate management and separate legal teams and everything it probably gets harder to shut either side up but I do agree it's time KK shut the fuck up. Just looking at the the comments show that even some of his actual fans are turning against him.

 

[redfly]

I think the problem with Rob and Ian is only that they took the bait KK laid out.

 

[Slammed]

Oh for sure, they wouldn't have brought it up themselves, but I also think if they had shown some restraint KK would have either shut up or just made himself look worse.

 

[redfly]

Yeah that's true. They tried to address some of the bs and gave him more ammo. I have to think they didn't know how bad it was gonna get.

 

[Slammed]

I'd like to think the riled him up deliberately to make him look like a douche
