KISS' GENE SIMMONS To Make Third Edmonton Appearance
December 1, 2008, 15 years ago
Victoria Handysides from Metro Edmonton is reporting:
Mothers, lock up your daughters, and daughters, keep a close eye on your mothers, because the commander of the KISS army is coming back to E-town.
That’s right, for the third time this year, GENE SIMMONS is going to be gracing Edmonton with his larger-than-life, fire-breathing presence — this time by cutting the ribbon on a gigantic new electronics store.
As part of a somewhat odd PR move, the rock god turned reality-TV star will be signing autographs and welcoming adoring fans into the new Future Shop at South Edmonton on December 6.
The 52,000-square foot store is a new hybrid electronics/high-end instrument big-box, that will sell everything from 100-inch LCD TVs for a cool $30,000, to guitars, drums and exercise equip-ment.
The last time Simmons hit Oil Country in August, he took the city by storm in an Indy-car frenzy, making appearances at various clubs and city hot spots.
