I had a book about Jewish Mothers and had a short essay on Gene Simmons' mother. She said when guests overstayed their welcome, she would ask if they wanted to hear her son's band new record. they would leave fairly fast.

I was 13 when I heard my first Kiss album. (I'm 61 now). I then graduated to Black Sabbath, Dio, Rush, and to this day, I keep up with so many bands.

I met him during a Cancer fundraiser where I used to volunteer called "Tour de Pier". In Manhattan Beach, CA, (my hometown) it is a spin bike event. I was the bike technician. A million dollars is raised in about 6 hours for Pancreatic Cancer.

They were all gimmick and money. Helped perpertrat the image that Rock n Roll was sex, drugs, and high pitched screaming was the norm. Rock an Roll went downhill since Led Zeppelin.
