KISS CANT' WAIT TO PLAY IN EUROPE AGAIN (via kissfaq.com)

Recently KISSHell/Metal Hell Int'l cought up with Tommy Thayer before laving for Europe, here the interview
1. What's the latest news on the Hottest Band In The World?
TOMMY THAYER: We're leaving for Europe next week. We've been rehearsing for several weeks now and we're very, very excited about the new 2010 Sonic Boom tour.
2. On SONIC BOOM? How did you generally approach writing your solos?
TT: Some solos I worked out on my own, on others Paul helped me with direction. I usually had an idea where I was going to go with each solo before we recorded them.
3. How would you compare writing with Gene to writing with Paul?
TT: There are no rules to writing songs, particularly where you start from. Paul and Gene have different styles and approach to writing songs. Gene usually has a backlog of song ideas that he pulls from. Paul usually has newer ideas. I think they are both best when they're spontaneous.
4. How did it feel to do the lead vocal on "When Lightning Strikes?" & was this written specifically with your voice in mind?
TT: Yes it was. I wrote the song with some help from Paul. We wanted a straight ahead rocker and I think it came out great.
5. With KISS guitar solos generally being pentatonic based, how do you feel other modes fit/or don't fit within the context of KISS' music?
TT: The KISS style and sound is timeless and was established early on. It's a blues-based hard rock style. It is what it is.
6. In the the current show, on the jam in '100,000 Years', how did it develop into you & Paul trading licks?
TT: I think it was one of those things we didn't plan the first couple times, and then eventually it became a part of the show.
7. "Lick It Up" has some interesting elements live, how did the current arrangement come together, with the segment from 'We Don't Get Fooled Again'?
TT: I think originally I was doing that finger-plucking thing and Paul was singing "I Want You.. I Need You" Later on that evolved into the Who part. I really like that.
8. How did the idea for new costumes come about?
TT: We were flying on our jet to Milwaukee for a one-off gig last year and we were talking about that we needed to get started on new KISS outfits. Paul picked up a pad of paper first and started sketching some ideas. We all tweeked things a bit.
9. Can you tell us a bit about your Hughes & Kettner signature amp?
TT: The HK Tommy Thayer Signature amp has a warm ballsy, in-your-face tone that really works well. I'd recommend it to anyone that wants a serious guitar amp. They look good too!
10. Any set list surprises planned for the European leg of the Sonic Boom tour?
TT: There will be some new songs and other great stuff. Always taking it to another level! We can't wait!

 

Tommy ha rilasciato questa intervista prima di partire per l'Inghilterra. Per quanto riguarda l'imminente tour europeo non si sbottona e non anticipa nulla se non che ci saranno nuovi pezzi proposti live e fantastiche novità sul palco...ormai manca poco e presto sapremo molto di più...

LEGENDARY ROCKERS TALK KICK-ASS TOUR (via kissonline.com)

Gene Simmons and Paul stanley talked with metro.co.uk at the Hotel in London.

Gene: 'You have a moral duty as a rock star,' he insists. 'All these audiences work at jobs they dislike and spend their pay cheques on something they love: they wanna see Kiss. How f***ing dare any of us ruin that trust? So we introduce ourselves with: "You wanted the best, you got the best." There's a sense of pride.' more

Gene e Paul hanno chiacchierato con metro.co.uk nella hall dell'albergo londinese dove sono alloggiati.

Gene: 'Come rock star hai un dovere morale ,' insiste. 'Tutta questa gente che viene ai concerti passa la vita facendo lavori che non ama e spende lo stipendio per avere qualcosa che ama: vogliono vedere i Kiss. Come c***  possiamo solo osare di rovinare la loro fiducia? Così ci presentiamo con: "Volevate il meglio, lo avete ottenuto". C'è un senso di orgoglio in tutto questo.' more

KISS IN THE PRESS

ONE NITE KISS: A HUGE SUCCESS!
More then one week is passed by but still the echoes from the KISS party are on.
Here some comments from Livepoint.it
Great show. The best rock event for Verona and its province. Perfect organiztion. Thanks Lucille. The venue was packed to the limit and the bands sounded almost perfect. A lot of people coming from all over the places. Lucille is a Rock trademark! Here below the first video clip from the show... more to come soon.

E' passata più di una settimana me le eco della serata non si sono spente. Qui alcuni commenti da Livepoint.it
Bellissima serata. Sicuramente il migliore evento rock di Verona e provincia di quest'anno. Ottima organizzazione. Grazie Lucille.
Locale strapieno imballato e band che si sono date da fare a dovere per la riuscita del tutto. Tanta gente anche da fuori Verona, ottimo segnale. E un plauso al nuovo corso del Lucille il vero riferimento veronese per il Rock. Non ci sono "ex Lucille" che tengano, l'originale ha impresso un marchio di fabbrica indelebile, questione di attittudine. Complimenti! Qui sotto la prima video clip della serata...molte altre prossimamente.

GENE SIMMONS: I CAN'T READ A STICK OF MUSIC BUT I'VE WRITTEN HUNDREDS OF SONGS

Roadrunner UK interviewed Gene Simmons while in London for the one shot gig early last month, here a neak peek for the rest go to Roadrunner UK

RR UK: You mentioned that you were self taught, did you ever have any theory lessons? Did you learn how to read music or any of that stuff?
Gene: No. I can’t read a stick of music, I’ve written hundreds of songs, I’ve had them covered by Lenny Kravitz and Stevie Wonder, and Cher, and almost anybody that you care to mention, but I couldn’t tell you if you wrote it down on a sheet of paper, and neither could Lennon and McCartney or Jagger and Richards, or Jimmy Hendrix- they couldn’t read or write music. But they could write songs.

 

Gene Simmons ha rilasciato un'intervista a Roadrunner UK lo scorso mese quando i KISS hanno suonato a Londra, parlando di come si è avvicinato al basso e delle sue influenze musicali; tra le tante affermazioni ad effetto "Non so leggere una riga di musica ma ho scritto centinaia di canzoni..."

BRUCE KULICK CLINIC AT THE ROCK&ROLL EMPORIUM

DeuceNews has received the following:

Join Guitar Legend Bruce Kulick at the Rock & Roll Emporium on April 25th!! Huntington Beach, CA - April 1st 2010
The Rock & Roll Emporium will be hosting a clinic and meet and greet with legendary guitarist Bruce Kulick on April 25th, 2010 to coincide with the release of his latest CD, “BK3”. Kulick, who first gained notoriety as a member of Meat Loaf's “Bat out of Hell” touring band, may be best known for his twelve years (1984-1996) as lead guitarist of KISS, during which time he appeared on nine gold, two platinum and one multi-platinum KISS albums, including Animalize, Asylum, and Revenge.  It is, however, the wealth of experience he has gained in his 13 post-KISS years that shines through on “BK3”. The album takes listeners for quite a ride over its eleven songs...from the frenetic and anger-fuelled "Fate" (co-written by Kevin Churko, known for his work with Ozzy Osbourne) to the philosophical and uplifting "Life".  Never one to mind sharing the spotlight with other talented musicians, Kulick invited several guest artists to appear on “BK3”, including Gene Simmons of KISS on the anthemic "Ain't Gonna’ Die", the late Doug Fieger (The Knack) on the soon-to-be pop classic "Dirty Girl", Nick Simmons (son of Gene) on "Hand of the King", former Union cohort John Corabi on the moody "No Friend Of Mine", Tobias Sammet (EdGuy, Avantasia) and Eric Singer (KISS) on the fierce "I'm The Animal", and guitar legend Steve Lukather (Toto) on the exciting instrumental "Between The Lines". “Great to hear one of the unsung heroes of KISS stepping out with a bold musical statement of his own,” says Eddie Trunk of VH1’s “That Metal Show”, while Classic Rock magazine calls “BK3” “quite a force” and “a well-crafted effort that shows Kulick living up to his full potential as a solo artist”.   The magazine also named Kulick one of their “top six to watch for in 2010”. To meet Bruce and attend the clinic, you may purchase tickets at our store or online for $25.  The ticket price includes a copy of “BK3” on CD, a poster, a “BK3” signature guitar pick, and an 8X10 color photo. The clinic will feature Bruce performing songs from “BK3” along with tracks from his years in KISS and will be followed by a meet and greet and autograph session. The Rock & Roll Emporium is a leading resource for those who love Rock n’ Roll and is pleased to partner with Bruce Kulick to celebrate his new release at this event.

TAKING DAWN TO OPEN FOR KISS IN THE UK
(from blabbermouth.net)
Taking Dawn will support legendary rockers KISS on their forthcoming U.K. arena tour this May. The Las Vegas  four-piece, which is currently tearing up the boards with Roadrunner  labelmates AIRBOURNE on their tour across Europe, will release its debut album, "Time To Burn", on April 12. The effort is already available digitally via iTunes and all good digital stores.
The dates are as follows:
May 01 - Sheffield, UK @ Arena
May 02 - Newcastle, UK @ Metro Radio Arena
May 04 - Liverpool, UK @ Arena
May 05 - Birmingham, UK @ Lg Arena
May 07 - Dublin, IRE @ O2 Arena
May 09 - Glasgow, UK @ Secc
May 10 - Manchester, UK @ Men Arena
May 12 - London, UK @ Wembley Arena
May 13 - London, UK @ Wembley Arena

Recently Gene Simmons twitted that KISS is rehearsing  for the forthcoming Euro tour and that this tour will be a two years tour. While in London beginning of the month, Tommy talked about the possibility that KISS will tour Down Under and Japan (Tokio and Osaka on August 7th and 9th?). Although Tommy reffered to Japan and New Zeland and Australia back in 2008 while on tour in Europe, this time seems more then an option. Currently KISS are confirmed on Cheyenne, Wyoming on 2010 Frontier Days July 23 and July 24 Minot, North Dakota 2010 State Fair. Tour updates here

Mentre era a Londra all'inizio del mese, Tommy ha parlato della possibilità che i KISS suonino in Australia e Giappone (Tokio e Osaka il 7 agosto e il 9?). Anche se Tommy aveva già parlato di un di imminenti date in Giappone, Nuova Zelanda Australia già nel 2008 mentre era in tour in Europa, questa volta sembra più di un'opzione. I attualmente KISS sono confermati a Cheyenne, nel Wyoming per i 2010 Frontier Days il 23 luglio e il 24 luglio Minot, al North Dakota State Fair 2010.
