He wants to hear Christine Sixteen and Domino. Those songs hit Trump right in the heart.

Getting honored along with Gloria Gaynor and Sylvester Stallone.

I wonder what other artists they will be able to get to play tribute to KISS?

Is Tuff booked that night?

I thought Gene had been critical of Trump in the past. I'm a bit surprised he'd (Trump) would let that go, but maybe he forgot.

Did Trump rip off his public persona from Gene or are they similar because they are the same age and New Yorkers?

I thought Gene & Paul both were. Anything to try and move tickets for the Las Vegas debacle, I guess.

From the BBC:

"Meanwhile, the lead singer of KISS, Gene Simmons, has been critical of Trump in the past."

"I don't think he's a Republican or a Democrat," Simmons said of Trump in 2022. "He's out for himself, any way you can get there. And in the last election, over 70 million people bought it hook, line and sinker."

Man it must really grind Paul Stanleys gears seeing Gene referenced as the lead singer of KISS.

Gene is spot on with his comment about Trump.

Sounds like he's talking about himself, apart from the election bit. And Ki$$ never sold 70m albums.

Love or hate (Trump) but...

this is quite a big thing. A perfect icing on the cake for KISS after their career.

A fake honour from your fascist moron President, who is a convicted felon, is in the middle of ending your democracy and of course is in the Epstein files. This honour is now completely meaningless and I'm disgusted by Kiss not immediately declining this nonsense. Fuck them.

I could see Trump and Gene hanging at the Playboy mansion, banging down some playmates together back in late 80s. I thought Gene said some things after his negative comments that made me think he was pro Trump... I remember Ace even led a Trump chant at one of his shows so hes definitely on the Train. Paul will change his tune now.

These guys could all be against Trump for all I know but you know for a fact their egos will not allow them to stay at home. Band has it definitely take in arena tour lap after this press. Of course not including Peter and Ace.

Gene has said good things about Trump too.

Out for himself? :roll: :roll:

Trump has nothing to gain being President … he gets harassed, shot, his businesses lose money, defamed, etc. … his family gets the same … he’s 80 years old … he has nothing to gain other than the satisfaction of saving America.

NeonKnite calls someone a name … shocker.

Peter said it’s the greatest honor of their career.

Woke is broke, just ask Colbert and Stern … America is great again until the tariffs hit medications.

This is already going way better than the RnR Hall Of Fame.

I woinder if Mafia Don will get them in a side room, all smiling, then suddenly his goons appear from side doors and he says: "none of you are leaving here until I get my 2020 Dubai show merchandise that i paid for. And if you give me any bs these guys are gonna get mediaeval on your asses."
