THE FIRST TIME I EVER SAW GENE SIMMONS

I was fourteen years old, and I thought he was the coolest ting I'd ever seen ( still do). The whole
band blew me away! Since you didn't know what anyone of them looked like without makeup
you knew that they could be anybody. You could be at the grocery and be standing right next
to one of them and not know it. You could go get some grease paints, put on your Kiss
makeup, play the Alive album ( or any other album, for that matter ) and pretend to be
Kiss.You were on the road, touring the U.S., and in your mind it worked because you looked
like Kiss, you could be Kiss. In my case, it was that I could be Gene Simmons, my Idol.
I started putting on Demon makeup two days after I discovered it.I copied it from some
Cream Magazine photos a friend had. These days I am better at it, and I still do it every
Halloween, New Years Eve costume parties at my house ( or somewhere else ) and to Kiss
shows. My costume is hand built and I did it myself, plans and all. These next two pics
are me in makeup and costume ( costume was not finished ) on Halloween:

As you can see I take Halloween seriously, and the kids in my neighborhood know it, Theylike to come to my place. I do scare about as many as I don't, but I like it either way.I will be posting some new pics of me and
gene and some of my friends as I get them. Probably on a separate photo page, so check back for updates.

HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A KISS SHOW?

Well, have you? If not, you have truly missed out. Kiss is the greatest show on earth. If you have seen
Kiss without make up, while you have still seen a great show, it cannot compare with the original
Kiss and make up show. Those of you have seen it know what I mean.
A Kiss concert is an extraviganza. You will see larger than life characters, The Space Ace, The Cat,
The Starchild, and Most impressive of the four, The Demon ( aka: The Lord Of The Wastelands,
The God Of Thunder ). Yes, I am talking about none other than Lord (Gene)Simmons, Hero and Idol
to me, a humble servant and admirer. You will see rockets fire from guitars, amazing pyrotechnics,
flame projectors, an elevating drum stage, you will see The Demon spit blood, breath fire.fly above
the stage and there are other bits and pieces you just gotta see to believe. If you get the opportunity,
I suggest tht you invest in a ticket and go.

THE GOD OF THUNDER LIVES!

I believe Gene Simmons to be a great bass player. His style is his own, and I believe it to be
incomparable during the Demon Days of his career. I am jumping up and down with excitement
since the reapplying of the old persona. Gene could teach a few bass players out there a
thing or two ( and he already has, no doubt ). Gene started playing bass when he was sixteen,
because every one else was playing guitar, and we all know that Gene is not one to do the
same thing as everyone else. Gene plays with a pick instead of his fingers and this is what
enables him to produce the sound I love so much. You can hear the bass notes as well as feel
them. When you hear it live, the sound is in your guts, rumbling and vibrating as well as in
your ears. I don't know, but I have a hunch that this bass punch turns on alot of women
that might be in its path ( all that vibrating inside your guts ), and judging from Genes
hefty polaroid collection, I tend to think I'm right. You need to be in the audience, listening
to the bass solo before the song God Of Thunder begins as he brings up the blood and
lets it drool down his chin. The power of the cords he rips feels as though it could make your insides
bleed ( I mean that in a good way, so don't panic). The expressions on his face make you know
that he is bringing these notes up from the very bottom, pushing that blood out, and finally causing
it to erupt out in a final, explosive blast all over himself. No one else can lay claim to the title
GOD OF THUNDER in the world of bass. This is my belief.

LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THOUGHT OF MY PAGE:

I want to know what you liked or didn't like on this site. Any ideas are welcome. Tell me
what you would like to see and I will try to get it for you. This is mostly a page dedicated
to Gene Simmons and Kiss, and it will remain under construction. I will get updates posted
as I can, and I promise to try and keep this site original and fresh. Keep in mind that
this is a fan page set up by a Gene Simmons fanatic, so it is by me and filled with him
and some other kiss stuff. My links will be expanding also, as I have more than one site,
but this is my main one.Thanks for checking it out, it will only get better.
