Nothin’ to Lose: the Making of KISS (1972-1975) chronicles the crucial formative years of the legendary rock band KISS, culminating with the groundbreaking success of their classic 1975 album Alive! and the smash single “Rock and Roll All Nite,” a song that nearly four decades later remains one of the band’s most enduring anthems. Drawing on more than 200 new interviews,, the 544 page hardback book offers a captivating and intimate fly-on-the-wall account of their launch, charting the struggles and ultimate victories that led them to the threshold of superstardom.

Many of KISS's musical contemporaries from the time, most of whom shared concert bills with the band on their early tours, also lend their perspective via new interviews including Bob Seger, Aerosmith, Black Sabbath, Rush, Slade, Blue Oyster Cult, Mott the Hoople, Journey, REO Speedwagon, Styx, Raspberries, James Gang, Montrose, Black Oak Arkansas, Ted Nugent, Manfred Mann's Earth Band, New York Dolls, Iggy & the Stooges, The Ramones, Suzi Quatro, Savoy Brown, Argent, Nazareth, Uriah Heep, Suzi Quatro, Leslie West, Status Quo, Jo Jo Gunne, The Rockets and Wishbone Ash among others.

SHOUT IT OUT LOUD: HOW GENE SIMMONS ROCKS BUSINESS OF MERCHANDISING (from www.brw.com)
Speaking at an invitation-only event for the Australian Children’s Music Foundation on the weekend, Simmons said: “It is fair to say that among the 3000 licensed products – I mean, literally, the KISS Golf Course in Las Vegas and KISS coffee houses, we make everything from KISS condoms to KISS caskets – we’ll get you coming and we’ll get you going.” “I do things, I sell,” he says. “Anyone who wants to achieve something, we are not born into doing this. The difference between them and some of us is that they get up hours earlier than you do and then . . . they put the left foot in front of the right one and they keep going and they keep working hard and it doesn’t matter if they fail. “I fail all the time, but I win sometimes and that’s what makes you big.” more at www.brw.com

Gene Simmons ha donato alcuni bassi della sua collezione per raccogliere fondi in favore dell'associazione ACMF, tra le già note massime del reportorio come "Abbiamo più di 3000 licenze di prodotti dai preservativi alle bare" e "Vi diamo il benvenuto e vi diamo l'addio"  ha aggiunto "Ci provo sempre e fallisco sempre, ma qualche volta vinco ed è questo che fa la differenza"
