Just been rang and my bass player is bouncing off the walls. Ever since he could remember he's been a massive KISS fan and he's spent £1000's and £1000's on KISS memorabilia (he's so jealous I went to see them on their first tour here though in 76). He collects anything and everything by them, goes off to watch tribute bands and has obviously a member of the KISS Army for decades. Being a bass player his favourite member is of course Gene Simmons.
This morning he got a call from Gene Simmons himself asking him to come down to a secret location in London (I know) where they will be filming scenes for a Gene Simmons TV program. There are 24 others who have been rung and they will have to dress in make up.
Gene Simmons says that if he tells anybody where the location is and 100's of non invited fans turn up it will be called off.
I know that the big fat blubber will end up crying when he meets him :D

Haha, awesome. You must be pretty chuffed for him :)
 
That's awesome. Did he enter some sort of kiss fanatic competition or the like? Can't think of any other reason as to why Gene Simmons would have his number :D

*Truly jealous
 
It starts on Biography channel tomorrow evening at 10.00 am. Would have loved to have seen KISS live but never had the opportunity
 
I rang him back and asked him if he thought it may be a prank and he said no because he asked Gene a couple of questions that only he would know. I said well if you know the questions then other people do but he replied that the chances of mates/workmates knowing the answers and speaking exactly like him would be slim.
He's convinced and on wednesday he'll be turning up at ................... nearly got me.
 
I'm confused...

Did he enter a competition as a fan to meet him?

Otherwise :confused: stars that i'd like to meet never ring me out of the blue :D
 
He's been a member of the KISS Army fan club from since the age of seven and of course they have his details for stuff they post out.
He buys loads of stuff from the official site so they know all about him.
Simmons asked to see the records for the most ardent British fans and he was chosen with 24 other saddo's.
