How long have you been a KISS fan for? I’ve been a fan since 1976
what was the first KISS record you heard?
DRESSED TO KILL was the first KISS record I heard
What was the first bit of KISS merchandise you bought? Probably the 1978 Remco Make-Up Kit.
What is your favourite piece you own, and which is the most rarest? My favourite piece is my Axe bass that Gene Simmons gave me personally as a gift. The rarest (or the one that was the hardest to find) were the Joint-Action moveable cardboard members from Australia only.
What KISS rarity would you most like to add to your collection? I am, personally, fully satisfied with my collection but would like the new CD box sets from Japan. I think they are a plus in ANY KISS collection.
What does your family or partner think of your KISS obsession? My family is very proud that I was able to share my collection in public and to have the only KISS bar/museum on the planet.DIVIDER
