Genes 76 armor plated costume with the scaled Dragon boots is the greatest music costume of all time
Fan forever it's real rock and roll . Nothing IA a rose garden ! Listen the original songs still stand the test of time ,
I still find it funny how this guy, like Paul and Gene say I a lot, and take credit for everything!!! Peter Criss and Ace were amazing and fantastic, obviously they forgot that 👏!!!
Great interview
I’d love to hear him talk about the band Starz.
The suits and ties worn by the band for the cover of Dressed To Kill, belonged to Aucoin. Made this comment 2 minutes into video.
no they didn't they were owned by the photographer aswell
@@ajjy1110 If that is the case, then Bill lied about that one.
@@ajjy1110 Your reply reminded me of an interview on SiriusXM feb.20 2021 with Gene Simmons explaining the suits. ✌️
The suits can't belong to Bill.
Look, how small he is. The guys could never wear his clothes.
Well, Bill could have lied, I mean look how much Paul and Gene have lied about Peter and Ace??
Peter Criss actually was really close and cool with Eric Carr god rest his soul, and Paul hated that fact!!@ I am a die hard Peter Criss fan, and he said in his book and Gene confirmed that Peter wished Eric Carr good luck with Kiss!!!
What is the name of the first Kiss fan who got sindged by Gene the first to make kiss tory I didn't hear of them until 75 or 76. Alive was my album. Had a buddy who played bass and looked like Gene and later gotten his head blown off..yep. shout-out to Craig Gronenthal I was shocked when I heard the news..thanks
I saw Gene Simmons in a Budweizer truck with the devil with a circus clown driving in 1985! I know it wasn`t a flashback because it was the first time I`d ever tried LSD.
The captions are hilarious.
Jäegermeister ..every drinker has a story….
Where is this interview from??
KISS were very lucky to make it ,if it wasnt for Neil Bogart mortaging his home and Bill Aucoin uaing his American express credit card to keep the band on the road I don't think they would have made it too far .
I don't think Neil Bogart mortgaged his house because of KISS..
@@HappyMachorino-bd8no You might be right, but that's what was believed to be a strong possibility at the time. I guess we will never know if He had mortaged his home for KISS with Neil Bogart dead
Yes but you can say that about any band 🎸
Blah blah blah!!! They are the highest selling American rock band in history!!!! They can fight and bash each other, but the fantastic four are legends!!! Peter Criss and Ace are frickin legends and amazing!!! Paul and Gene wrote the songs early in the original lineup and it was magical!!! Peter Criss singing Black Diamond and the whole damn band live on that song is legendary!!!!!
@@kevinchandler179 I'm not disputing that. I'm a long time fan. My point is that if it wasn't for Bill Aucoin keeping KISS out on the road with his maxed out American express credit cards and the success of KISS Alive they probably would have not made it
Paul mentioned Bill's drug abuse
in his book. There's also an old interview where Ace was seriously angry that Bill got more money from KISS than he. Although he didn't work for KISS anymore.
Bill (RIP) seemed to like Ace. But Ace voted against him. Sad, sad...
Anything Paul Stanley has ever said, is 90 percent lies!!! Fact
Well, if Bill was getting more money than Peter and Ace who were legendary and in the actual band, do you blame them??? As a die hard Peter Criss fan and Ace as well, it cracks me up how people don't understand that they were founding members as well, and Paul and Gene auditioned 40 drummers and guitarists and look who won the jobs!!!!
Ned Flanders died broke
Holy shit, he is Ned!!!!! Lol 🤣
I THREW MY KISS SHIT OUT YEARS AGO
But here you are anyway. Good for you hero.
And now? Do you expect applause here from us? 👎
Very simple!!!! Peter and Ace were the real talent and heart and soul of the original lineup!!! No Peter or Ace no Kiss!!! They made them famous!!! Team Peter and Ace always
You have threw Paul and Gene out of your life, not Peter and Ace!!!
This is actually boring!!! It's simple, they were on top of the world 🌎 from 74-77!!! 78 was when Peter and Ace were tired of constant touring and wanted to do solo albums, and the ridiculous Phantom of the Park movie bullshit!!! That is what really ruined the Kiss momentum, then Dynasty??? Lol 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Peter and Ace said this disco bullshit, nope!!!!
As we all know Peter made a heavy disco-influenced song too: "Dirty Livin'". On Dynasty.
And Ace loved the 💲for his work on "I Was Made for Lovin' You".
With Paul's song they all made the most money.
And instead of "disco" Ace made again a cover song!
But Dynasty is still a great album. And you should be glad for every album we have with the original four. "Dynasty" is great! And KISS Meets The Phantom..." is funny.
Not true, Peter and Ace hated the disco bullshit and that's why Dynasty didn't have either one of them on it besides like 2 songs!!!! Also, at their prime Kiss it was magical and because Peter and Ace were amazing and fantastic!!!
@@kevinchandler179
Definitely Peter had a disco song on Dynasty! And Ace loved the big money they made with "I Was Made For Lovin' You". Facts.
Eric Carr should have been a full member! The best scenario would have been beeing a member in an nice honest band instead! Due to the fact that Eric was manipulated to a nervous wreck by paulie! And thats totaly disgusting! He deserved so much more! Those over the top! Ego things brake up bands! No wonder Ace and Pete didnt get along with those other two! Although their use of drugs and alco
It looks like Eric Carr was manipulated by Ace. Watching the very first interview when they introduced Eric Carr,
I noticed how Ace was totally drunk and made the band ridiculous. Eric did the same!
Ace had a bad influence. Eric made fun of Gene's "A World Without Heroes". Look at Gene! How angry he was.
"A World Without Heroes" is one of the most beautiful Gene songs.
And Eric, the new member, was publicly disrespectful. This was disgusting. Instead of blaming Paul I also see realistically Eric's illoyality and even impertinent behaviour. Already in the first interview. Nevertheless Eric (RIP) was a great drummer.
