GENE SIMMONS In New Audio Interview - "KISS Is Not A Charity"
January 16, 2017, 7 years ago
“People have convinced themselves they don't wanna pay for stuff and last time I checked, KISS is not a charity,” said Gene Simmons during a recent appearance on the SDR (Sex, Drugs & Rock N Roll) podcast with hosts Big Jay Oakerson and Ralph Sutton.
“We're philanthropic but I'll be the one that decides how much I give and and where, not some college kid to decide, 'you have enough money, I don't wanna pay for your record.’ Make a distinction between commerce and philanthropy. So, the idea of doing another KISS record, unless and if there's a financial model that works, personally I'm not interested in it.”
