Hi there, me again (sorry 😅)!! This isn’t anything art related unfortunately, but I hope you’ll enjoy the ask nonetheless!
I’ve heard you mention a couple of times that KISS is one of your favorite bands and you grew up listening to them, which has managed to make me beyond happy, as they’re also my favorite band!
With that being said I’d like to know some of your favorite things about them, like which persona you love (Spaceman all the way), favorite song (maybe not expected, but Psycho Circus definitely) or favorite album (Alive for sure), so on and so forth!
Again, this is just a silly little ask because it’s so incredibly amazing and important to me to see someone that I look up to so much share one of my interests and has been so enthusiastic about it!
Sorry for the ramble bamble and thank you for being you Mr. Sava! :)
Thanks. To me, KISS were like Superheroes. They were larger than life. Ace/Spaceman was always the coolest looking. For sure.
But we would dress up as all of them.
I had their toys and all the albums.
When KISS Alive II came out in 1977... I was 9 years old. And... it came with... TATTOOS!
That was the coolest thing ever.
Favorite song may be Shout It Out Loud (mainly because I always loved the guitar solo).
And here's a little painting I did one morning during a live.
"Friends who've come so far to join us, We hope you come and join us again
Friends who've come to sing in the chorus, You floor us, we will sing 'til the end…
And I wish we all could stay, But I bid you a farewell
And it means the world to play, But I bid you a farewell...
Gathered here tonight… Did it up just right…
And It's all for you."
Unfortunately, I was not able to get a decent video of Gene messing with Tommy during cold gin last night, but I did get this video of Gene licking Paul! 😝 (once again ignore me going “oop” in the background 😆😳)
