Friday was Comic Relief here in the UK, a great charity that helps worthwhile projects in both Africa and the UK. Myself and my team at work decided to make an effort this year dressing as IT Geeks led by... Gene Simmons! It was a 6AM start for me to get the make-up & outfit sorted along with a very strange journey to work with a lot of confused/scared pedestrians. It was well worth it though, Gene and his geeks prowled the office collecting money, selling cakes, shaving heads & waxing legs and made a massive £850 ($1300)! A brilliant effort from a brilliant team, apart from freaking most of them out by being in character all day I’m pretty sure they enjoyed working for Gene...

This girl is Shandee Blackburn, a massive KISS fan who was murdered last month in Mackay, Australia. Last night Paul Stanley sung this for her and her family. Her mum said afterwards "It was just really sweet and at the end he said 'let's say goodnight and goodbye to Shandee', I wasn't crying at all until then".
Well done Paul.

Anyone have a spare $703,581.48? If so Ace may need your help:-
"A rock ’n’ roll legend may be KISS-ing his Yorktown house goodbye.
A bank is accusing Ace Frehley, a former member of the rock group KISS, of not paying the mortgage on his Yorktown home for almost two years. U.S. Bank National Association claims that the rock star, whose real name is Paul Frehley, stopped paying his $735,000 mortgage on March 1, 2011.
In its Feb. 15 foreclosure filing, the bank asked the court to order a sale of the home to pay for the outstanding principal of $703,581.48 plus interest, late charges and other expenses."

Calling all KISS Army soldiers! After many years of planning, Kreatures of the South is proud to announce the live launch of our brand new venture: www.kissexpoonline.comOur new web retail extravaganza offers more variety, availability, and vintage KISS collectibles – the spectrum of obscure and highly sought merchandise normally found only at a KISS Expo - but ONLINE (hence the name)! With more collectors becoming disillusioned by Ebay, we are here to provide a one-stop-shop for the avid KISS fan!
The web site is now live – stop by and check it out! We have about 100 items already posted – and will add 30-60 more items every day until the entire collection is available (around 2,500) – so check back often, and when you find what you want, don’t wait - BUY IT (as these types of items go fast)! We love the other KISS merchandise websites, but our focus is on the vintage and obscure items that are difficult to locate (as opposed to the newer mass-produced items most fans already have).
We are offering the collection online based on years of requests from many of you - our friends & fellow KISS fans – that know where to find the best deals! Now you don’t have to wait for the next KISS Expo – you can shop anytime from the comfort of your own home! We always enjoy your feedback so let us hear what you'd like to see more of, and we'll try to make it happen.
Best regards,
