I snapped this one in the Tacoma Dome 7 years ago today!

Sadly this one was snapped 12/25

Yeah I know. Awful.

Your photo is amazing. As a former DJ and music director I have to divorce myself from a lot of this.

I hear you there. I spent over a decade writing about music and did a few other things industry related and have distanced myself a bit. In hindsight I didn't think this all the way through before posting, since I never could stand Gene Simmons and Paul I thought was "okay" but not anymore.

But I will say the concerts were a blast to shoot and KISS tried breaking my website by posting my review in 2019 and a few years earlier for Tacoma Weekly.

I spoke to Gene Simmons in the 80's when I was running interviews and DJing at a heavy metal network. He and the other band members had difficult days liking each other and when I asked why he thought the other band members would want to get back together for reunion tours it boiled down to $$

KISS original lineup reunited once and Gene wrote up contracts to only pay Ace and Peter like contract musicians, instead of getting the rate Gene and Paul were paid. He's a greedy, selfish bastard. I almost never hear anything positive about Gene Simmons.

Wow Sad man.. he’s the mouthpiece alright

He's a terrible person.
