Gene Simmons

We’ve all had that experience in life, when what you get is way different than what you thought you were getting into.  It’s fair to make some assumptions, and when I see a band that has spiked shoulder pads, explosions everywhere, and their faces painted, I assume what I’m about to hear is going to be loud and wild.  And then KISS begins to play….and everything you assumed goes right out the window. The theme seems to trickle down to its members of the band and the subject of our show today, co-founder and bassist, Gene Simmons.  Simmons and his weirdly long tongue has found a way to stay relevant long after his famous band’s cycle had run it’s course.  The stories around Simmons, the band, and the days on the road are epic, but I’ll go ahead and tell you that the book doesn't always fit the cover.  What was Gene’s upbringing like?  How did he get into music and the weird look the band used?  And what does he exactly do with that long tongue?  We’ll dive into all this and more in the Gene Simmons episode of AHC Podcast.
