Gene is correct. I was working a kiss show in the 90's. Don't remember the tour and Gene was on the dock at 8 am when the trucks started dumping just watching the entire process from the truck to the stage. He was there for at least 5 or 6 hrs watching the show go up. then he disappeared until show time. He was not watching it load out after the show. Yep, he was right there with us on the loading dock. Watching what he is paying for.
If Simmons was chocolate,,,,,, he’d eat himself
Hahahaha... 🤣🤣🤣
Forget kiss...hell that was a wicked performance from Queens right there!
One of my favorite interviews of all time. Gene is so smart and Henry is loving every second of it.
From Kiss condoms to Kiss coffins. We’ll get you coming & we’ll get you going ! 😅
Great show
The KISS pinball machine was cool

2:35 stand on business! 🫡😤
now all of a sudden i want a KISS Visa.
Most banks allow you to design your own cards .. make yourself a custom kiss visa
What about the band EZO that Gene produced
whats the name of this track ?
Misfit Love from their Era Vulgaris album (2007)
What year was this?
2007
Era vulgaris hell yea, when was this show on a what was it on?
2006-07, on IFC (I think it's defunct now)
@@kittavares4334 It is defunct as the record industry.
Gene puts Henry to shame - 2 smart guys, but 1 asks stupid questions
He(G$E$N$E) is like liver; tastes awful, shouldnt eat it, use is a necessary function though. Mysterious but exists. Homme is super talented and needed on the aural landscape t'day. Er 14 years ago.
Supposedly Gene and Paul discovered Angel
I think they initially funded and produced Angel, but they never took off. I think Paul also produced the band New England who had the brief hit "Don't Ever Wanna Lose Ya" and then disappeared. Angel just never had the hit, although Giuffria, later did with "Call to the Heart". The hit Angel never had.
Angel never took off because of Punky turning down playing in Kiss, and their career stopped moving forward from there
@@stealingtomorrowband punky would've been to good for kiss. I don't think Gene or Paul would be happy because he's way more talented than them. Kinda like Vinnie Vincent. You have to be like a Tommy Thayer that does everything he's told to do.
@@jesuscampos8136 your absolutely right about that...
Whats funny is Henry does exactly what he told that interviewer kid not to do in this interview 😂😅 oh well live n learn great show!
Problem is, downloading and streaming is the future and Gene is short sighted to no realize it. Lets say Gene got his way and the record industry started to sue every person it still wouldn't have mattered. The internet came into existence and everything changed, the record companies would have died of 1000 paper cuts trying to sue everybody. I don't like Gene and I don't like his schtick, but I do like Kiss, they put out a lot of good music.
He's talking in 2007, so from that perspective he's correct. That's how a lot of people saw it back then. Music is poorer for it, the last 15 years we've had nothing outstanding. Corporate RnB pop.
@@jonathansteadman7935 There's still great music being made, but without the corporate structure to curate/produce/promote these smaller acts, yeah, you can feel the difference.
Why does he think it's cool to go after another guy's girl?
Because he is a douchebag....
small penis + low self-esteem = ego trip.
Painful watch
Henry is so uncomfortable
Project much, Gene? I can assure you, that you and I have little in common. Unlike you, I do not experience envy and jealousy. And yes, I don't have much money. What's that old saying? The love of money is the root of all evil? Yes, love. People are perfectly capable of criminal behavior with, or without, money. So I suppose the argument to be had is, does criminal behavior equate to evil? If I were to venture a guess, I'd say no. Evil is more about the motivation behind, and the pleasure of, doing wrong to others. And just to be rude, and get in a jab, your music sucks, and your fans lack taste.
Man, seriously....wow. john Lennon 2.0
I don't get the American obsession with KISS. One of the worst popular bands, the most memorable is when they went disko
You Australian? lmao - their disco era huge down under
I agree, they've always been a crap novelty act. Outside of the US no one likes them.
I like and respect Henry.
But his politics suck moose balls...
I grew up loving kiss. However, Simmons' schtick is so stupid and annoying.
Do you think it's a schtick? Interesting. I never listened to Kiss, besides the hits, partly because of his greedy a--hole persona.
The one thing I find genuinely admirable about Gene is that he's very honest and straightforward. He can definitely be an a-hole at times , but he'll be that same a-hole to your face and not hide behind a nice guy facade. If you think Gene is bad, go listen to some of Paul's autobiography - it's basically hours of him saying "Everyone sucks but me."
Also, dude has surprisingly eclectic tastes - he loved The Melvins, for one example. lol
He's extra arrogant and "defensive" here because he's talking to a punk icon.
it's always scary when gene goes to touch his hair LOL.. Gene telling Henry, the guy who probably owns a closet full of $6 black Tshirts 'you can never have enough money'. RAPPERS are garbage 90% of them are, I've seen rockstars on cribs, PPL THAT LIKE ROCK ARE SMARTER THAN PPL who like rap, we get tired after seeing the 4th rockstars giant house and the way they waste money. PPL love rap are shallow and only about money and the cars they drive in the videos that they DON'T own, they usually rent it from some rich old white man who owns a building full of them. Dont kid yourself, #genesimmons is full of shit. the 'mainstream' is what has abandoned rock for the garbage!
That song was hideous 😂
Queens of The Stone Age Really Suck!
I'm not a huge fan of the band, but that performance was so sick! So much raw energy and tension!
Idk man I think they've always been one of the best radio hit band as a guy that generally dislikes radio hits
