The GENE SIMMONS Roast was held on Tuesday, November 27 at the Key Club on Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood, California. Former KISS guitarist Bruce Kulick was there and offers up this report:
"Got an invite to the Gene Simmons Roast and it was a hilarious evening. It ran so late I couldn't even stay till the end, but some of the jokes about Gene and KISS in general were brutal, but very funny. He asked for it, and he got it. I also had the pleasure of speaking with Nicholas, his son. Imagine a young, spitfire version of Gene, without the knowledge of fame and fortune. A classy offspring, so Gene and Shannon (Tweed) have done great with their unique style of family. He is a family jewel! Sophie was not in attendance as it was a bit blue and, shall I say, inappropriate.Also spoke with Geoff Tate from QUEENSRŸCHE, ALICE IN CHAIN's Jerry Cantrell, and Scott Ian from ANTHRAX. METAL SKOOL was the house band, and they are very funny to entertain. I know they will have to edit this event, as it was taped for A&E.; BTW, I did not ROAST Gene, that was left for the comedians and his son. Can't wait to see the final version. Thanks to Gene for the invite. I had a great time!!"
