MY friend told me he was in an elevator with Gene a long time ago and some guy said the wrong thing to Gene and Gene took a piece of gum out his mouth and stuck it on the guy's nose.
Unbelievable! It's amazing to watch Gene Simmons speak. He has so much power, knowledge, and intelligence. I take life advice from Mr. Simmons | I was fortunate enough to have seen him on September 8th. Rock N Roll KISS!
All of you “Jew” this and money that... name me ONE rock star that doesn’t do it for money... Beatles started a lot of the merchandising stuff... no one bashed those four... so Gene made money. Unless there wasn’t a demand for the stuff, he wouldn’t have made money... so you haters relax. The man didn’t throw his career away like Peter and Ace, and he kept off the dope and the booze and made some money... but the Jew stuff gets really old...
MorbidManMusic if I’m not mistaken, originally Bill Acoin started the merchandise stuff and a percentage was given to the band and split equally. I doubt if Gene has full control as Paul is very well aware of what’s going on and I’m sure gets compensated. Kiss is unique as the Beatles, that the four members were stars individually. When I was a kid there were no Black Sabbath dolls with the four members. Unless you were a fan, no one really knew who Ward or Butler were.. but love them or hate them, back in the day, most kids knew the four names of the members of Kiss. Especially Gene... I understand what you’re saying, hell maybe I’m wrong...
Gene Simmons has a deep commanding voice in talk and singing. One thing that always seems constant with Gene is he's a gifted bullshitter. If you can't dazzle them with brilliance baffle them with bullshit!
Am I buying Gene's box? No way. Too expensive. I'm a Kiss fan - not a Gene Simmon's fan. Does he have a solo career? Not interested. Gene, kiss my ass.
I, for my entire life, have not liked Gene (not that I'm under any illusion that he would care WHATSOEVER). But like a light coming on, all of a sudden in watching this interview, I get his sense of humour and now I've done that, he's nowhere close to the asshole I thought he was. Great interview.
Strombo's the aging hipster wannabe who tries to be Mr. Warm and Fuzzy. Some of his interviews are actually quite good, but here he is trying far too much to get Gene to slam Trump. Not exactly an honest job of being objective. II wish Gene would have called him on some of his comments for example.
This interviewer is trying too hard! You're not Howard Stern dude! Give it up! Just put your interview scope around Gene Simmons and the box set he's selling.
Wyatt Sexton Give it up?! LMAO. He's been going strong for over 20 years, by being himself. If you don't like it, go elsewhere. BTW, Stern has sucked for over a decade.
correction MR.SIMMONS , THE POPULAR VOTE DID NOT VOTE TRUMP IN , THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE DID!! BIG DIFFERENCE !! GENE SAID POPULAR VOTE VOTED TRUMP IN , WRONG!!!
The thing is that people hate him and Paul. The more that I know of ace and Peter, the more I realize that gene and Paul were the drivers behind kiss for a long time.
Sense of humility? Dude, Gene is a savvy businessman, but he thinks he's God's gift to humanity. Humility is the last word one should use to describe him.
Every Gene Simmons project is an infomercial for whatever Gene is hucking . A salesman/bullshitter on par with.... Donald J Trump. They prolly have the same wig master too.... but at least Gene made albums and toured as a successful musician.
12:32 - Is Gene lonely? Hahahahahha! Such a generous man. I was a KISS Army member at age 11. Love you guys. Give Ace a break. He was the only guitarist that would have fit KISS and you damn well know it, Mr. Simmons.
The truth is bands make way more today then they ever use to.Concert ticket's were cheap and mainly touring was to advertise albums not make tons of money.Also bands got what one or two dollars for each record sold and had to split it four ways or five ways.They are making way more charging what they do for concerts now and off VIP packages and selling instruments and as in Kiss's case the Kiss Kruise then they ever made in the past.Honestly it's reverse now a new record is advertisement for a tour and a reason for fans to come see a band.But I guess Gene does not need that when they can just tour off nostalgia and people will come as when older bands play new songs the older fans don't really want to hear them live.Also there are newer bands still building a buzz off the net and getting there music out and people coming to see them.Thing's just changed that is the way it is.
Gene is brilliant…but he doesn’t get addiction money is an addiction….any framework of life looked thru the eyes money…I’m afraid my friend you will miss most of the picture…
Jean Simon's is s true Iserisligt I've read abaught in the bible thede ste Gods chosen people he is part of that inherstence the guy is the modern one God will complete his promise this guy is the true descendent from the time Moses led out of Egypt the the desert to when God said occupy the land I promised yes they are occupiers Gid said I will bless those who Bless you and curse those who curse you. So what I'm trying to say in this man's veins runs the blood of all that God ha planed and yes even the blood of jesus ss a person when he walked thr earth he had the same blood that's why the good time and bad his mother persecuted loked away these are God's early people chosen for what to protect us and hel us in the beginning of the end when things will be very tuff and make way for there messiah which is the same Jesus who walked hear the first time.
He's one of the few who took the bull by the horns!!!No Bullshit!!!Genes lesson:You get nothing for nothing!!!The road is paved for Chaim, he is a man of vision and ingenuity and has a serious 5 year plan.Spiro popadodous is going to replace Gene in kiss!The kiss juggernaut will damn well continue!!!Rock and Roll over looks so cool on genes I-pod!Is there a possibility if there being an Alive 4 down the road with the new line up?Peter criss is 70 years old!He is going to get up on that drumstool and bring down heaven to earth!!!
Gene has the most bizarre Republican psychotic disconnect with what he says and what is actually happening in the world. He's a rockstar who is out of touch and living in his own fantasy land. We all know that, but it's so poor and beneath not to take a moment and reflect on what he actually says and its consequences.
Patrick Miller He completely destroyed Michael Jackson,an innocent who haven't done anything to him. He keep on way after he died. Gene Simmons always bragging having sleep with 10 thousands women, girls and married women, I wonder when his Weinstein moment will come
Gene's a genius, what a smart and interesting man. I feel inspired to go out and make millions to help my family and people around me live a happier life with the freedom money gives them and thus hopefully avoid dying alone like some pathetic worm. Thanks Gene peace be upon you and your loved ones.
Couldn't disagree more about music/art requiring more than one sense to appreciate. Put on a great recording of Bach's Art of Fugue and let me know how seeing the process could in any way enhance the sonic experience. Great music is a treat for the ears alone.Popcorn farts require the accompanying visual bullshit. Thank you for compelling me to say this. It felt great.
A Tabish Yes he is as a matter of fact. Saying Gene is good is in no way putting down Geddy Lee?? How are the two connected? He was neither mentionned or compared. Period!
WOW! This interviewer is terrible. He keeps trying to set up Gene to call out Trump, which he does, yet he's still not happy. He wants more. AND HE JUST DOESN'T STOP.

Kids need to feel the thrill of buying an album and peeling off the plastic.
Don't forget checking out the sleeve cover ....
gene is a funny mofo.respect.
I'm done. At least I was able to get through 5 minutes, before my stomach started to dry heave
MY friend told me he was in an elevator with Gene a long time ago and some guy said the wrong thing to Gene and Gene took a piece of gum out his mouth and stuck it on the guy's nose.
I bought KISS Alive at 11 in 1975. Life changing. Ace's solos stayed in my head for years. Brilliance.
Ace's solo album is still in my playlist..
Labworks Vapes Nice! I learnt Shock Me last month. Awesome to play that.
Don't pull the plug on me, no, no
Keep it in and keep me high.....
Labworks Vapes Shock Me! Make me feel better! Shock Me! Put on your black leather:))
Labworks Vapes Ace is a gifted guitar player and songwriter. His voice is the one I want to hear on Shock Me!
and the title for the next Kiss album "Digital Music Is A Popcorn Fart".
"I can do that because I'm goddamn rich" gotta love Gene lol
Great interview Gene!
Gene simmons is literally the trump of rock music 😂
Love it!....Gene Simmons speaks the truth...he gets it!!....how bout y'all?
Strombo never let's a person answer a question entirely
Unbelievable! It's amazing to watch Gene Simmons speak. He has so much power, knowledge, and intelligence. I take life advice from Mr. Simmons | I was fortunate enough to have seen him on September 8th. Rock N Roll KISS!
strombo is a terrific interview one of the best of all time ect true all star
Agreed Strombo is so personable he makes his guess feel at home and relaxed. .awsm interview

KISS is a Massively influential Band.
Am I buying Gene's box?
No way. Too expensive.
I'm a Kiss fan - not a Gene Simmon's fan.
Does he have a solo career? Not interested.
Gene, kiss my ass.
I, for my entire life, have not liked Gene (not that I'm under any illusion that he would care WHATSOEVER).
But like a light coming on, all of a sudden in watching this interview, I get his sense of humour and now I've done that, he's nowhere close to the asshole I thought he was. Great interview.
From Death camps too Bass amps with come to Jesus moments always the Genius Gene
I greatly enjoyed this interview! Thanx for the upload! Xo
2,000 dollars! R.U. kidding me?!
Great interview George. My fave musician of all time.
Gene would market and laminate his own crap if he could, and he'd be successful at it 😂😂
You can see right through this interviewer dude...
Strombo's the aging hipster wannabe who tries to be Mr. Warm and Fuzzy. Some of his interviews are actually quite good, but here he is trying far too much to get Gene to slam Trump. Not exactly an honest job of being objective. II wish Gene would have called him on some of his comments for example.
You see his interview with Rush? Hush yourself 🤫
This interviewer is trying too hard! You're not Howard Stern dude! Give it up! Just put your interview scope around Gene Simmons and the box set he's selling.
Wyatt Sexton Give it up?! LMAO. He's been going strong for over 20 years, by being himself. If you don't like it, go elsewhere. BTW, Stern has sucked for over a decade.
LOL. This isn’t even the first time he’s interviewed Gene.
Gene is super wise and intelligent. I can tell he was low key annoyed with this lib anti-Trump host.
He lost the popular vote.. just so you know gene ..it was the electoral college
How long did it take to get the fart smell out of your house after Gene left?
I would have enjoyed hearing him go more in depth on his thoughts on April Wine.
I love Gene kinda. Ace and Peter are Kiss too. Come on $Gene?
Jean is so wise now that he has matured…
This is an infomercial.
3:56 life changing quote
Can we see the Polaroids ?
36 min infomercial
Kind of a head case ? Great muscian !
Gene Simmons ❤❤🎉❤🎉🎉❤❤❤
Good Interview George! I have 5 minute attention span, but stayed the entire thing!
correction MR.SIMMONS , THE POPULAR VOTE DID NOT VOTE TRUMP IN , THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE DID!! BIG DIFFERENCE !! GENE SAID POPULAR VOTE VOTED TRUMP IN , WRONG!!!
Love Kisses music or not, one can not be in love with Gene's zest for life and energy and sense of humility.
The thing is that people hate him and Paul. The more that I know of ace and Peter, the more I realize that gene and Paul were the drivers behind kiss for a long time.
Sense of humility? Dude, Gene is a savvy businessman, but he thinks he's God's gift to humanity. Humility is the last word one should use to describe him.
nice nails Gene...
Every Gene Simmons project is an infomercial for whatever Gene is hucking . A salesman/bullshitter on par with.... Donald J Trump. They prolly have the same wig master too.... but at least Gene made albums and toured as a successful musician.
Gene is a greedy narcissist, but he is the coolest-looking character in KISS and he made some good music in his youth.
12:32 - Is Gene lonely? Hahahahahha! Such a generous man. I was a KISS Army member at age 11. Love you guys. Give Ace a break. He was the only guitarist that would have fit KISS and you damn well know it, Mr. Simmons.

I’d actually pay 2k for that vault to have Simmons to deliver it in person. It’s not a bad deal.
Gene is brilliant…but he doesn’t get addiction money is an addiction….any framework of life looked thru the eyes money…I’m afraid my friend you will miss most of the picture…

Holy shit, Gene said "Moncton"! What a fantastic interview (not just because of the Moncton bit).
Great interview ! I have always believed the negative press about Gene Simmons. Your intimate interview style brought out Gene's positive vibe.
Gene has the most bizarre Republican psychotic disconnect with what he says and what is actually happening in the world. He's a rockstar who is out of touch and living in his own fantasy land. We all know that, but it's so poor and beneath not to take a moment and reflect on what he actually says and its consequences.
Patrick Miller
He completely destroyed Michael Jackson,an innocent who haven't done anything to him. He keep on way after he died.
Gene Simmons always bragging having sleep with 10 thousands women, girls and married women, I wonder when his Weinstein moment will come
50,000 round trip to New Zealand? That doesn't sound right.
Gene's a genius, what a smart and interesting man. I feel inspired to go out and make millions to help my family and people around me live a happier life with the freedom money gives them and thus hopefully avoid dying alone like some pathetic worm. Thanks Gene peace be upon you and your loved ones.
I watched the Gene Simmons family reality show. Shannon his wife and his kids made an amazing family dynamic.
Forever chasing the cash he know's the art of cashing in after all he's fucking rich!!
There are plane crashes everyday but he gets on planes.Comment on that Gene.
Pretty bad interview. Safe and boring. Same tired Gene antics.
you are wong with the arabs and the numbers,Gene
Self made man.
Gene Simmons also discovered Gene Simmons.
I wear my sunglasses at nite
Sober
Of course
Stromboli is back ?
His age amazes me. A very wise man.

So....if you magically had the choice to see bach play it live...you would say “no thanks i have the mp3”
Strombo is a great interviewer. Prove me wrong.
I'm viewer number 6:))
Not so easy
To Be R,'N'R
He's so right.
2000 for a box set 🤣
Ll
i dont get it. so he'll fly across the country and stay at a hotel which can upwards of 1,500 because someone paid him 2k? that eats into his profits
They are announcing cities just like a tour.Then renting out a ballroom and multiple people who paid 2000 will pick up there boxsets not just one.
No, if you want to buy a copy of the General Simmons Vault it's 2 Grand. He'll personally come to your house with your copy if you pay him 50 Grand.
OLAM BLEE GIBORIM ZE KMO OLOM BLEE SHEMESH!!!
Gene Simmons killed rock'n roll!
No... record executives did...
Record executives and fans illegally downloading music.
Gene is a great bass player.
William Price We both agree. Cool basslines that jump out. 100 million records. No accident.
Really how about Geddy Lee is he OK?
A Tabish Yes he is as a matter of fact. Saying Gene is good is in no way putting down Geddy Lee?? How are the two connected? He was neither mentionned or compared. Period!
A Tabish Yes. Rush used to open for KISS, since you brought it up.
William Price Cold Gin, when the bass kicks in, pure music gold.
Gene Simmons is a wise man. And Shannon his wife has the patience of a saint.
WOW! This interviewer is terrible. He keeps trying to set up Gene to call out Trump, which he does, yet he's still not happy. He wants more. AND HE JUST DOESN'T STOP.
Trump 2020. The announcer needs to stick to Canadian politics
