If Alex joined KISS they could dress him up like a bitch...never mind...he already is one.

Mezro...Gene, Paul, Ed and Alex...can you imagine what that ego trip would be like...

Ed's f***kin' drunk when he makes his major decisions! Hellloooo? Can you spell H-A-G-A-R?? Ed admitted it himself that he visited Gene and Paul regarding joining KISS, no one disputes that! WTF? Your opinion vs. both Gene AND Ed's testimony......hmmm....tough decision...W/E!

I've never heard of Ed "admitting" this, so I'm disputing it. Where did you read this or hear it?

[FIRELITE]

Yeah, that's what I thought.

It's old news, I'm not a walking dictionary or a 'Rainman' that I can just flip old news sources at the drop of a dime. But it is old news, remember seeing it on several VH fan sites.

Thanx for the sarcasm, Hagarita.....get in line....you suck too....

I wouldn't doubt there being some truth to both. Gene is a very shrewd individual who has his feet on the ground and his ear as well. It must have been clear, even in 1978, that Ace Frehley was going to burn himself out. Thus, it makes sense that when Gene first saw Ed that he would want him for KISS. But, as the years went by and the rumors(THERE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN RUMORS THAT ED WAS A MESS!!) got around, why would Gene want to replace one fuckup with another?

:D Right! Paul could have more time to pose, since it what he does best. Gene was also smart enough to know that Ed's virtuousity wouldn't fit with KISS, where the music takes a back seat to EVERYTHING else! And since Gene and Paul are teetotalers, Ed's rampant substance abuse couldn't have been very attractive.

i love DLR with all my soul, but in the end, gene is the god of thunder and rock and roll

i knew that would get yall's attention. merrykissmass2u is outreaged. merrykissmass2u only speaks in third persion when he is about to kill. merrykissmass2u was watching the today show on nbc this morning, writng posts, sipping cofee, the usual morning routine. then, as the today show comes back in from a commercial break, a visine (eye moisturizer, like clear eyes, wow!!!!!)banner shows up. merrykissmass2u thought that this was a normal ad, but merrykissmass2u was wrong my friend (my friend!). the devil's music played:spammy bumfuck hagar's I cant drive 55 off a cliff played. someone share this anger with merrykissmass2u! send letters to nbc and visine showing your love for dave! dave needs support. if we support dave, a dave reunion will be more possible! even supporting dave in the smallest way can help our cause.

"old news?" I've been a VH fan for a long time and I've read a LOT of interviews with Edward. I don't claim to know it all but I've never ever heard of Ed saying he asked Gene if he could join KISS. Just because you saw it on a fan site doesn't mean Edward "admitted" it. Please.

I can believe Gene said it but I don't believe it. I suppose anything's possible but for this I would prefer to know which interview it was that Edward supposedly admitted this before I would believe it happened. Not doubting you personally, just like to see for myself.
