1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,320
Speaker 1: Jersey and Amanda jam Nation and we.

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:06,120
Speaker 2: Just had Gene Simmons on before, and we've spoken to

3
00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:08,399
Speaker 2: Gen Simmons many times from Kiss Abra, Korea.

4
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:11,160
Speaker 3: Having It's funny. I still pinch myself when we talked

5
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:14,440
Speaker 3: to Gene Simmons. That was the first band that my

6
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:16,560
Speaker 3: brother and I really got into. You know, I liked,

7
00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:20,720
Speaker 3: as you know, individual daggy singers, but I would play

8
00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:23,759
Speaker 3: air guitar on the tennis racket to their songs. And

9
00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:25,520
Speaker 3: did you know this is something he said, One in

10
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:28,840
Speaker 3: fourteen people in Australia in the eighties either bought their

11
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 3: album or went to see one of their concerts. That

12
00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:34,800
Speaker 3: is huge, isn't it? So people in the eighties, we

13
00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 3: are completely in the drop zone of what Kiss meant

14
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:38,479
Speaker 3: to us.

15
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:41,200
Speaker 2: We really embraced Kiss, and as a kid, I thought

16
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:43,120
Speaker 2: that the greatest thing is I that Kiss a live

17
00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 2: album and Kiss a live album two was just we

18
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:48,120
Speaker 2: just wore it to death on the record player.

19
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 3: But you said earlier that you weren't allowed to go

20
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:50,319
Speaker 3: to that.

21
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 2: Com well, we were so excited about going to Kiss

22
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 2: when they're coming to Australia. We're just my brother and

23
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 2: I were just beside ourselves. And as I said to

24
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 2: Gene Simmons just before this happened.

25
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 1: We're two days at Sydney Stadium and two days at

26
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 1: the Melbourne Stadium, and that's before fans played stadium. Who's insane.

27
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:10,720
Speaker 2: Well, I was supposed to go to that concert in

28
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 2: nineteen eighty and my brother and I got in a

29
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 2: punch up and break the glass table, so my dad

30
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:17,960
Speaker 2: refused to take us to the Kiss concert. I was

31
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:19,639
Speaker 2: twelve years old at the time.

32
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 1: Oh my god, well that'll teach you.

33
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 2: And I got a lecture from Jean.

34
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:28,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, don't break the glass table, the class table, don't

35
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,600
Speaker 3: run the glass table. Did you smash yourself?

36
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,120
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no no, just if you know, because

37
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:36,200
Speaker 2: my brother and I we'd fight at the droup and

38
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 2: we still do.

39
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,039
Speaker 3: And your father followed through with that punishment.

40
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 2: That's true. The old man was just looking for any

41
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 2: excuse not to take us. He couldn't think of anything

42
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 2: breathing in and out. I don't think we'll be going.

43
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 2: He couldn't think of anything worse than take us to kiss.

44
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:52,639
Speaker 2: So now, no more kiss. That's not going to happen.

45
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 3: But as Jean said, one in fourteen, people was into

46
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 3: kiss in some way, so we thought we'd ask this morning,

47
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 3: what's your history?

48
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 2: A history. I love it.
