KISS Does A Military Tribute- FANTASTIC!

I’ve never been a fan of KISS– it is just not my genre of music. However, I was sent this video from a friend and after watching it, it made me swell with pride and gratitude for Gene Simmons. I am the sister of a soldier in the 82nd Airborne Division and as such it took on special meaning to me.

Take a moment and watch this amazing and exhilarating tribute that Simmons and KISS did for our brave men and women in uniform. This was filmed in Iraq at a USO tour of a US Marine base. What a way to honor our troops and give them a moment to relax, celebrate and have some fun. Thank you Gene Simmons- you are a true patriot!

Whether I like a particular person’s or groups’s music/comedy/”act” or not, I have respect for, and am grateful to, every “star” who takes time from their busy schedule to do something for our troops.

So, Thanks! — to the members of KISS and to everyone else who participates in and performs on USO tours.

That was awesome. While I was at a remote FOB that no big name acts would (or were allowed) come to it is nice to know that this is done for any of our troops.

God bless America!!

You DO know that their black and white faces are their natural look. It is the more “fleshy” skin tones that are the result of makeup.

I saw a couple of the guys from “collective soul” on TV yesterday inviting Vets to Golden Coral for a free dinner in their honor.

Made me smile.
