Paul Stanley misinturpreted the word "hoedown" ?

KISS certainly seems like the odd band out, stylistically, far as the band lineups go.

Also odd that the website link used a photo of the late 1990s original band reunion lineup to announce the booking (am fairly sure that is Ace and Peter in the photo)...

[Diamondjimi]

Here's a pic. of the original KI$$, pre $immon$, $tanley, Frehley, Cri$$.
Gene and Paul bought the name and image off the drummers son in 1972 for $12. He originally wanted $1,600, but Gene and Paul, being the shrewd businessmen they are managed to get him down to 12 bucks...

By the way, I edited the thread title so it reads "KISS To Perform @ The 2011 Houston Rodeo!" For one reason or another, I could not get my mind around the word "Preform", probably due to that ghastly Elder album that scarred me for life.

Come to think of it, Dynasty and Unmasked weren't a great deal of help, either.

Take the mount, call her by the wrong name, and hang on for the wild ride.

What's the difference between a straight rodeo and a gay rodeo?
At the straight rodeo they yell "Ride That F*cker!" and at the gay rodeo they yell "F*ck That Rider!"

[CROWBAR]

He's always been such a prissy fucker.

[ELVIS]

What's the difference between LoungeMolester and a rooster ??

A rooster says cock-a-doodle-doo and Lounge says any-cock-will-do...

KISS heading into studio in March

By Eric MacKinnon

KISS guitarist Tommy Thayer has confirmed that the legendary rockers are heading back into the studio and plan to release a new album before the end of the year. And he reveals it will follow much the same format as 2009’s Sonic Boom which was a massive success on both sides of the Atlantic.

In an interview with BackstageAxxess Thayer says: “The great news is that we are going in the studio again in the next month or two. We are starting to work on writing some songs, approach it just like we did with Sonic Boom and keep it all in the band in terms of the writing, with no agenda besides writing great rock n’ roll songs that we love, then rehearsing them before then recording them. It really felt good to us so we’ll go the same way this time.”

The new record will be the bands 20th studio album and Thayer reveals KISS co-leader Paul Stanley will produce it, after the success he had at the helm on Sonic Boom He adds: “Paul knows more what a KISS record should sound like than anybody, to be honest with you, so he is going to lead the charge and produce it again and we are all really excited about it.

“I know we are going to start working on it really soon in terms of the writing and rehearsing and we’ll probably be in the studio by March, so sometime this year I’m sure you’ll see a spanking new KISS album that’s gonna kick some butt!”

I stopped reading after "Kiss guitarist Tommy Thayer...."

When I purchased the souls of Chaim Witz and Stanley Eisen back in 1972, this was NOT what I had in mind.

[ace diamond]

sorry about your luck.
have you tried ace frehley or peter criss?
or michael anthony, perhaps?
incidentally, how is michael jackson being tormented these days?
i'm sure you must have had something really good in store for him, your mighty unholiness.

[Drolaw]

Are you keeping OJ's seat warm and toasty?

[indeedido]

I'm surprised they let Tommy speak.

[Little Texan]

I thought these fuckers were supposed to be retired? Didn't they go on a farewell tour like 12 or 13 years ago?

[ace diamond]

I thought these fuckers were supposed to be retired? Didn't they go on a farewell tour like 12 or 13 years ago?

11 years ago. they did that in 2000.
but then again, THE WHO have been doing a farewell tour since 1982.

[Prothro]

With Shannon spending all Gene's money they gotta crank out an album or two so he will be able to buy her islands and shit.

[Dave's Bitch]

Woooooooooohoooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !

[jero]

Just can't wait for it

[Dave's Bitch]

come on it will be great,you enjoyed sonic boom right?

[Mr Badguy]

Well, I enjoyed "Sonic Boom", so I'm looking forward to it.

If you don't like that, I don't care. Fuck off.

[chefcraig]

Well, I enjoyed "Sonic Boom", so I'm looking forward to it.

Same here, I was pleasantly surprised by Sonic Boom. In addition to some pretty good music, the overall package was a bargain. Seriously, it was a good value for a reasonable price.

[indeedido]

Sonic Boom was like Hot in the Shade pt. II. Psycho Circus was better than Sonic Boom to me.

[chefcraig]

Sonic Boom was like Hot in the Shade pt. II. Psycho Circus was better than Sonic Boom to me.

That's an interesting take. I had high hopes for Psycho Circus, coming off Revenge, and that is probably why I was so disappointed with it. With Sonic Boom, I truly didn't expect all that much, and was delighted when it delivered what it did. Hardly a ringing endorsement, I know. Yet it didn't leave me scratching my head after listening to it, nor did I find myself forcing myself to try to like it by listening to it over and over, like VH III.

[sadaist]

So Gene & Paul figured out a way to put those 3 chords in a different order and want to record it?
