Gene talks about the new Monster / spider stage and other things.

Take it with a big grain of salt, but.....from people at the Indy KISS expo...

"The new Kiss stage show will involve a giant robotic spider that will move across the stage and all four members will be lifted into the air. Also, the spider will shoot pyro from it's legs and its eyes will glow. Gene told us that it would be 100 percent new and not a rehashed stage where the amps and stairs are simply moved around and then called a new stage. This will be unique to Kiss and Kiss will give us a 100 percent new stage show.

The drawing of it was on his smart phone screen.
I forgot to mention instead of being hoisted into the air per usual at 8 feet per second it is now going to be up to double that amount of time and will be using a new type of tether that is see through. So you will basically see him fly and the cables (cable, only one is to be used) that lift him will be see through.
Gene has lost forty pounds. He is much much smaller than he was. It's amazing how well he looks. He gave out hugs to star struck fans and was very nice to the fans.
Yes, he told more in depth stories about Vinnie. 14 lawsuits and currently Vinnie is planning a 15th lawsuit. He also said Vinnie sued his own lawyer, and won!!!

It was at the meet and greet where I saw it. Other people did in fact see the arm.
I would not knowingly lie about something like this. This is something to get really excited for. Since 1998 people have been clamoring for a totally new stage. Not an amalgamation of pre existing parts into a "new" design. This is something radical along the lines of Leo and the Statue of liberty and even the Tank stage. This goes far beyond all these things and now the thousands that have complained about the same old stage show, can finally have something new to interest them.

That is what he told everyone that was at the event. Only two(to my knowledge) saw what was on his phone, but EVERYONE heard Gene say what it was it. If it turns out not to be true, it isn't me that lied."

Here's a cool unrelated drawing thrown in just for fun.....

Cool that they're havin a new stage I guess but I'd much rather hear a different set list. I've defended Kiss for 35 years but sometimes I can see why the haters cry "style over substance."

Sometimes you have to use the art of distraction to make up for something that may have deteriorated. :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

Also they knew the Australians will come out. On this climate I am not so sure north American tour will do so well.

It's funny that KISS stages now don't ALWAYS have the logo displayed. I know they can choose to show it on the screens and it looks quite cool. It's just not there ALL the time, despite what else is happening.
