I want to repudiate what Kevin Ross just said. Homophobic commentary is NOT appropriate. We can disagree with Paul on what business moves he makes in the public arena, but whether or not he’s gay has no baring on any of that. Let’s keep in mind that like it or not, he is one of the greats, and deserves respect for his accomplishments.
Thanks Ace for saying that, cause that post from Kevin Ross was not only grotesque but, filled with hate and ignorance. Looks like Eddie or someone pulled it… Rock Soldier brotha’!
Paul @ Gene are AHoles for doing this.
paul the only reason your ugly face is put on a pedestal and you are still singing like crap in 2014 is because of Peter and Ace.
So give them the dignity and credit they deserve and play with them in honor for 1 last time makeup or not just Jam and shut the hell up.
Last month they both said in Rollingstone they would play, everyone was happy what the hell happened!
Btw, new TMS is really good. The whole story of what went down with Randy was tragic, but ultimately uplifting. Well done. Nice run on “Stump The Trunk”! Clean sweep! And the Throwdown might have been the best one of that segment by pitting the Big 4 classic records against each other…Well done.
Hate to say it, but you could see this one coming a mile away. There was simply never any intention in my humble opinion of playing with Ace and Peter, because no matter how many times Gene and Paul try to diminish their importance and accomplishments to this band in the past they still don’t seem to realize that we the “THE BOSSES” never bought this fallacious line of B.S. As bad as the Rock Hall has looked in their 15 year snubbing of this bands induction, most of this would have been wiped away if only Gene and Paul could put their egos aside for one night and give the ” Kiss Army” what we have waited so long to see, the original members of Kiss standing side by side, brothers in arms, playing just one more time as they take their rightful place in the Rock Hall. No one is saying you cant or shouldn’t give respect and acknowledgment to all the individuals that have been germane to the initial and continuing success of Kiss, but this induction is about the musical foundation that everything else was built off of. And that can only be defined of in my opinion as Gene ,Paul ,Ace and Peter. It is truly a shame, that on a night that should have been so special, it now appears to have become just an unmitigated disaster.
I have to say i would have enjoyed a retrospective of the whole kiss family. Yes the originals should be honored but a lot of people grew up on different incarnations. I have to say i agree that if Rob went in with Metallica then everyone should be at least showcased. I think it would have been like a once in a lifetime journey through the times of kiss. That is everyone is being honest woth their statements… I would have been there in brooklyn watching the whole thing man
