(Myrtle Beach-AP) June 28, 2006 - The rock band KISS is now pitching coffee in Myrtle Beach. The first KISS Coffeehouse features KISS Vanilla, Demon Dark Roast and Rockuccino.
Band members Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons greeted hundreds of people Tuesday to mark the opening. Their appearance did not include their trademark makeup.
Fans started lining up at 6am to meet Stanley and Simmons, who weren't scheduled to show until 8:30pm, according to KISS' website.
The two band members drove up in a stretch limousine and shook hands with fans as they made their way to a news conference and receiving line.
Some fans drove from as far away as Colorado and Oregon and one came all the way from Poland.
The KISS Coffeehouse is hardly a bohemian hangout for arty types. It's a shiny silver and neon building flanked on either side by giant platform boots.
Stanley says Myrtle Beach was the best place to start the business.

Fyi from another link:
"Every army needs food and drink and the KISS Army is no exception!" said Gene Simmons. "Even the non-enlisted will find our treats and java rockin' good!"
And actual enlisted men will not be forgotten, either, as the band plans to ship 1,000 bags of KISS Army Blend coffee to the US Armed Forces in Iraq in conjunction with the cafe's grand opening.

Yeah, but even though she's a Hard Luck Woman, you still gotta Love 'Em And Leave'Em.

They need a super strong blend with 200% more caffeine and call it "Mr. Speed".

I'm a coffee freak. I hope at some point they sell it by the bag like Starbucks- I'd love to try it.

With the extra caffeine and sugar, we really CAN rock and roll all night! And party EVERY day!
