You should have just said “I know you are I said you are but what am I?”

Your point is that you're a cunt with a low IQ.

You can fuck off now, junior.

Are they playing the food court? Which Dana & Mark look like they're quite familiar with. Also, bring back the crazy fun drummer. They're playing at the Wolf Den at Mohegan Sun. That's where the free concerts are located. The stage is in the middle of the casino. If you wait in line for an hour...

Yeah typical KISStard. Gets totally riled by junior high level jibes. KISStards are mentally stuck in junior high so someone calling Paul Stanley gay is a huge deal. You're the one bringing Paul up. It's your obsession. If you want Paul to be gay, then have at it. It's the only way that you'll get ...

Eric Singer had a career before KISS. To a lesser extent, Bruce did, too and Bruce had some success after KISS.

From what I understand, it’s a stretch to say that Paul “turned down” GnR.

As I posted above, GNR didn't want Paul to produce the lp.

Desmond is gay.

No need to fix anything.

They're your gay fantasies.

I'm sure you got your cold sore from Desmond. I'm also sure you're the type to pass it around. Hey question. What are you going to do now that KISS is retired ? You have to be the biggest ball washer of KIsS here and are beyond P13 level of Poison. :lol: Did you cry on their last show? Listen to al...

I thought Desmond Child was gay and that was what attracted Paul Desmond is gay. Paul is not gay. Desmond didn't know he was gay at the time. He was in a relationship with Vidal and had "experimented" with dudes ala Ace or Peter. Unlike them, he later accepted that he was gay and eventual...

BTW, Desmond didn't come into the situation with "I Was Made For Loving You". Paul and he worked on it together. Afterwards, Paul and Vini Poncia worked on it. The chorus was written by Paul and Vini. Desmond came into the situation because Paul wanted to pork his girlfriend Maria Vidal w...

Any of you Kiss fans start getting into them in the 80s? Maybe you prefer that era. What are some of your favorite songs from that period? I first heard KISS in 1976 ("Shout It Out Loud") and purchased "Destroyer" in 1977. There are lots of great songs from the '80s: "Easy ...

The answer is no one. Gene's version of discovering VH has been debunked down to maybe recording a demo, and that's it. Desmond took off because a disco-rock song took off. Indirectly, Paul jump-started his renowned career, but it wasn't Paul's doing. Desmond co-wrote (or probably mostly wrote) the...

If bands they took out as opening bands count, the list grows: Judas Priest, Bon Jovi, Rush, Mötley Crue and Iron Maiden all opened for Kiss shortly before they themselves became arena headliners. And that's just off the top of my head. Maybe Slaughter too, but their successful career didn't last v...

Desmond Child? This is the answer to who had the most success after working with KISS first. I mean, you could argue that VH takes the cake, but Desmond Child does have writing credits on BOYS NITE OUT, so hey. Also, not that it's much related, but Bryan Adams' career went absolutely nuclear shortl...

Paul didn't turn GNR down, GNR turned him down.

Desmond Child. It's possible if Paul didn't ask him to work with him and co-write I Was Made For Loving You, he might have never been brought to the attention Bon Jovi, Aerosmith, Cher, Ricky Martin, Alice Cooper, Michael Bolton, etc. Good answer. Even when he co-wrote Heaven's On Fire he was still...

All this stuff about how he thought it would be more powerful is BS. They much more likely thought it would be a great way of cutting costs and clearly had no idea how strongly fans felt about Judas Priest having 2 guitars.... With KK out of the band, there's more money in Rob's and Glenn's pockets...

He didn't have any writing credits and they had to bring Kulick in to finish a couple of the songs so I wonder how instrumental he really was in the recording of that album. He also later said that the arthuritis was a coverup because he pretty much left because they couldn't stand him and vv. The ...

I just got back from seeing Brit Floyd, a Pink Floyd tribute band that tours and puts on a big production. The show was phenomenal. They are great musicians, they sound just like Pink Floyd, and they have the visuals to match. This is the first tribute band I have seen, and it made me wonder what o...

I don't think Ace would have done well in the early/mid 80's with KISS with these guys being in vogue at the time Van Halen Lee Rhoads Demartini to a degree although never known as a shredder among many others like Gillis.... I didn't mind Vinnie free styling on Ace's solos and riffs but I get why ...

Jungle was only popular on airplay (for two weeks) because people remembered who KISS were after the reunion. Was so odd releasing that after the reunion tour. "Jungle" received airplay because it's a good song and people liked it. Mercury wanted to recoup the advance that they gave to Pa...

Yup, he had a gun.
