alright, LAST TIME I will attempt to explain this to you.
KISS did not influence any band in any significant way.
Their music was not NEARLY innovative enough to be significant.
Their stage shows were based on concepts that, as MANY people hve pointed out, HAD BEEN DONE BEFORE, by the stones, pink floyd etc etc.
It doesn't matter IN THE LEAST IF KISS had better lights shows, or bigger explosions, because the fact remains, that THEY WERE NOT THE FIRST ONES TO DO IT. If KISS hadn't have done their lights shows the way they did, some other band would build on what the bands before them had done in their place. FLOYD was more influencial in that sense because THEY DID IT FIRST.
FUCK it's not a hard concept.
