Kissology Vol. 1
Back in 1975 I became aware of KISS for the first time. At the age of 11 it was pretty much a perfect combination of forces: loud, scary, and completely parent-disapproved. There was also something really cool about the four characters in the band. Overall, it really resonated with me.
I freely admit that I still think KISS is pretty cool. And for pretty much the same reasons as before. Ultimately, either you get it and like them, or you don’t. No amount of explanation will convince you either way.
One of my wonderful friends gave me the KISS “Kissology” DVD set for Christmas last year. It’s been a source of amusement and delight ever since. Thus far I have rocked out to the content on these DVDs, and am exploring the band’s commentary tracks. Good stuff man.
