KISS News Bits

[DLR Bridge]

I find Shandi to be one of thier best ballads. The album to me is very enjoyable. "Is that You?", "Tomorrow" ,"She's So European" and all of Ace's tunes were cool, "Talk To Me", "Two Sides of the Coin" and "Torpedo Girl".

"Is That You?" rings a bell now. Had a cool "Hear About It Later" type chorus if I'm not mistaken. I just think this record sounds like weak left overs of their solo efforts and wasn't recorded very well. You expect bigger budget with Kiss.

Like I said many times before, KISS sure knows how to make a disco song headbang-worthy.

Peter Criss explain why he is against the current Kiss, with Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer dressed as Ace and Peter.

While I have no use for the current incarnation of KISS, I think Peter Criss is somewhat bitter that he allowed himself to accept the uneven cut of the reunion...although he really didn't have much of a choice if he was looking to make some serious money. From everything I've read, Criss had to swallow a lot of pride and exchanged his indignation at how he was being mistreated by Simmons, Stanley and Doc McGhee for a steady paycheck.
I'd have to imagine it must have been somewhat humiliating on the last tour Criss did with the band to find out that the band were only offering him 10k per show vs. Tommy Thayer, who was being offered more than double that...but the fact remains that Criss went ahead and did the tours and kept signing the contract renewals. The only time he took a stand was when the reunion tour went Down Under, and he wouldn't sign. However, he eventually went ahead and did more tours with the band, while all along suspecting that he was being cut out of what he considered to be his fair share of the merchandising along with suspicions that his management and representatives weren't getting him the best deals they could out of the KISS organization.
And I hate to say it, but Criss probably would still have kept performing with the band despite what he considered their shoddy treatment of him had Stanley and Simmons not ejected him in 2003.
While I can understand why Criss kept playing with KISS (hey, it's not like he was gonna be playing large arenas any other way), people can't abuse you unless you let them.
