Being from the '70's gives no more cred than than being from the '90's or what ever. quote: Originally posted by schroeder:
Ya gotta give props to KISS for what they started, what they created and how big the thing became. Yea, there music and songs are average, at best, with a few really good tunes; but they are living legends.
No, not at all. Only if you like them do you need to give props to them for creating what they did - as for how big the thing became, so they're good at marketing. Big deal. People will by shit on a stick if you convince them it will make them happy. quote: Originally posted by schroeder:

Exactly. quote: Originally posted by schroeder:

No. I'm not raggin' on Ki$$ fans. I just think their look (and sound) is quite lame, and even stupider than some of the clowns shown in those pics. Innovative? About as much as any wrestling gimmick from the same time period.

NUC, OK I'll have to agree with your points that you made... you're right. I guess it might have something to do with the fact that I was in the 6th grade when I first got into KISS (only their first 3 albums had been released I think) , and being young and very impressionable I bought into the whole gimmick and maybe even believed Ace was from another planet and could actually hover above the stage So when I think about KISS I remember those days from long ago and thinkin how cool they were and how great Rock N Roll was. They were probably the first metal (I use that term loosely) band I got into and it opened the doors and my ears to what was to come in the future. Before KISS I can only remember listening to stupid pop, and disco, and Elvis on AM radio... yes, I'm old Now that I'm older KISS is mainly a nostalgia thing for me... but still fun to listen to once in a while!!! Music From THE ELDER is still my fav KISS record and it was when it first came out, even though everyone slammed it. later -------------------- yawn
