KISS aint about being thought provoking music. Gene says its a soundtrack to the live show.

that was the point going completely over your head

the members of KISS knew they didn't have a lot of musical talent. they've admitted, in TONS of interviews, that they weren't the best musicians by any means, but the reason they were successful was their image. that's why I dont like KISS, because of their image is everything mentality and the fact that their music is one dimensional, monotonous and boring, which is what I'm starting to sound like from having to explain this to you so many god damn times.

The reason they were successful is because they made more money than everyone else. Wanna be musically credible, go be a starving jazz artist.

The STones success and Beatles success was all image based as well.

yes, to an extent, but not entirely. which is WHY KISS didnt invent stage shows. alright, i'm done with this thread, I feel like I'm talking to a brick wall.

I believe they were the first band to take laser lights at concerts to the next level, feature huge props on stage and have a large projecting screen in the background, so when they were playing there would be animation clips, among other things...They were the very first band to do this, i believe.

KISS invented four spotlights on each guy doing a guitar solo, a drum solo, a presentation.
Im pretty damn sure Yes did that before KISS did...And unlike KISS, Yes can actualy solo.

Th emost in demand techs working in the industry belonged to KISS. If you did lights or pyro or sound for KISS, you were the best in the world.
Pink Floyd's light shows were better.

Quote:
dude, the Rolling Stones in 1977 had nothing in the way of a stageshow that KISS had. KISS invented the art of the touring rock band. They pioneered the logistics in how touring and album marketing was done.
Again, Pink fucking Floyd.

Quote:
They were the first band in the world to put there names and band logo on their guitar picks.
Wow how innovative, what great musicians they must be.

There is so much stuff KISS invented in rock concert promotion they are now the norm.

Quote:
KISS invented it. The best in the world, worked for KISS, not The Stones.

Yeah, but The Stones are still better.

that KISS pic blows away the trampoline in lights Pink FLoyd has.

I think Floyds Light show was better due to the dose of LSD you had prior to showtime.

And Mick Jagger prancing around in a pair of long-johns is...well.......
