I think she should have used those photos of herself eating watermelon with her hair dyed black while wearing biker boots.

I like it because they have articles longer than one page - which seems to be a rarity these days.

I see they are now slick and in colour. You have them starting with issue number 1 - don't you?

I started buying ND around issue number 3 - I think. Then, the place closed were I bought it - sometime in 2001 - I sent in a subscription and never heard back from them. I had given up on music magazines a couple months ago - Harp being the last one I was buying. So I am glad to have something to read once again.

I disagree - or rather, there are many KISS songs I like. I tend to think in terms of albums anyhow -

I bought an issue of ND this morning - first time I have been able to grab it at a store for years. There is an ad for this album on the back cover - I wonder why she went with an old Annie Leibowitz photo? I think that photo was taken several years ago.

I think the Blondie induction almost did - when Frank and the other dude were begging Debbie to let them play.

They are pissed at him becasue he got tired of sitting around and went to play with Sammy.

I think they will - just seems to be on hold.

Good point - I am curious to what his mother thinks about that deal.

So far, I have just got the first one. A lot of work went into those books I would say. Funny how the one I am reading is already dated though - all the references to cassette trading. edit - the other two are in - so I know what I will be reading tonight I hope to own them at some point.

I like Kiss, Dressed To Kill, Hotter Than Hell, KISS ALIVE 1, and maybe Rock and Roll Over. After that, I guess it would be Creatures of The Night and Music From The Elder. I am not all that crazy about Destroyer, Love Gun, or Alive II - although there are some songs I like on those albums. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiss_discography#Discography The last Kiss album I bought was Asylum in 1985.

I am partial to the riff in Parasite. I see your point. You probably know this - but he is a cleaned up christian dude now.

For me, it's really the other way around. I think the image overcame the music - I mean, that's cool what they did - but for me - there has to be some good songs in there somewhere. Same with Alice Cooper - Killers is pretty cool, Flush the Fashion, is not.

The Deadhead's Taping Compendium, Volume 1: An In-Depth Guide to the Music of the Grateful Dead on Tape, 1959-1974 The Deadhead's Taping Compendium, Volume II: An In-Depth Guide to the Music of the Grateful Dead on Tape, 1975-1985 The Deadhead's Taping Compendium, Volume III:

That's funny - cause in the Kissology dvd - you can see that his drumming is not that great. or did you mean to say that you like to sing I Can't Stop The Rain in the shower?

That is good to know - I am still learning about dvd stuff.

If you compare those albums to what came after - those albums are really good.

My guess is that Eddie has to get cleaned up again

So you are a friend of Jay's I take it.

aha Did you film that stuff? Ever consider putting it up on a Bittorrent site?

Well, when the show became bigger than the songs - they lost me. Creatures of The Night and Music From The Elder are great later period albums though.

Do you own all of this on VHS? Did you digitize it yourself?

Try listening to them in WAV or FLAC, Cal. I got the Sunshine Daydream movie yesterday.

I suppose I was speaking of some of my bad habits there. Funny thing - I was in HS in the early 80s and I own hardly any music from that time - it just never spoke to me. There are some exceptions - U2 being one I can think of.
