Hey guys I have been a fan since 1975 at the age of 5. most kids had spider man or superman as hero's not me it was kiss. My brothers took me to a kiss concert in 1982 and I never forgot it. Now my son at the age of 11 is a dye hard kiss fan and when I ask who his hero is he says kiss. He got a mp3 player for Christmas instead of loading it with the junk kids hears to today and time he made me download lovegun- alive and psycho circus on it. We seen that you guys was going to do a summer tour in the US and he wanted to go. Making 12 bucks an hour its hard to do a lot during this day and time. But i really wanted him to see my hero's the way I did when I was 12. so I checked around and seen you all was coming to Bristow VA. He graduate 5 grade this year and my family gave him money he volunteer it to get his ticket what kids would do that .So we order our tickets and when we got them he cant keep them out of his hands . So were coming setting kind of far back but we will be there. He asked could we get there real early to see you guys come in and say Hi I told him it don't work that way there famous people and when you see them it will be on stage. So then he asked well dad when they sing Rock And Roll All Night we can sneak up front and you can put me on your shoulders and when Paul breaks his guitar ill reach out for it . I said yes and a 300 pound man will put us on his shoulders and carry us out. He's watched to much kiss on youtub.But anyway thanks for reading and we cant wait to see the greatest band ever played but most of all our HERO'S (Thanks for all the years) Your biggest fans in the smallest town in Kentucky.

Dear KISS,
I just wanted to say how thankful I am to have a band like you around to keep us entertained with real MUSIC that is actually played by MUSICIANS, and not subjecting people to a series of computer-generated beats and vocals that nobody can understand. Oh, and it's also nice for a musician such as myself to be able to rock along to his/her favorite songs and imagine being a part of the greatest band in the world!
Thank You for last night! =)

I wanted to express my sincere gratitude for the welcome and thanks you showed my good friend Freddie at the concert in Cheyenne last night. He was the soldier in the wheelchair. Fred has been in the military since we were fresh out of highschool and has lived through alot. It was truly an honor to stand by his side and see first hand the gratitude and appreciation you honored him with. Saying the Pledge of Allegiance brought a tear to my eye. Thank you for a truly awesome concert and for being the MOST AMAZING BAND EVER! Fred and I grew up listening to you guys and it was so exciting to be so up close. He beamed from ear to ear all night because he was able to give Paul Stanley his combat patch. Thank you so much for an unforgettable night!
AMAZING!!!

I just wanted to thank you guys again for another amazing night. We drove 600 miles from Utah to see the show. This was my eigth kiss concert and the first one I was able to bring my three year old daughter to. Being able to share a love with kiss with her makes us even closer then we could be and I am greatful to KISS for that. I was also able to convert a friend who came with us to kissology and he now fears noe concert he sees henceforth will ever measure up. I dont have the ehart to tell him no show but a kiss show ill ever even touch it. I cannot wait to see you guys in spetember in salt lake city. It will be my third show since last december.

Hello!
My husband and I wanted to tell you our story--the story of how we met and fell in love from miles and miles apart--and all because of KISS!!!!!!
It was August 2006, Rodrigo & I were both members of a MySpace KISS forum. He is from Sao Paulo, Brazil and I am from Pittsburgh, PA. One day, he sent me a message because he saw my KISS tattoo (with your autographs! :) He said, "Hey girl! I loved your KISS tattoo! You're awesome!" I got this message and saw that he was from BRAZIL! Of all places! I was amazed and excited that the band that I was BORN loving seemed to have connected me to a person so far away. Rodrigo and I spent a lot of time talking from that point on. First it was email, then instant messenger, then phone conversations. We fell in love!
I have never been so sure of anything in my life and the same for him. Our families and friends all had their reservations about us getting together. They thought we were a little crazy. They thought it wouldn't work out. They didn't trust this. But WE KNEW. So we knew that we had to try to be together. First we tried (twice) to get him here to visit me. Unfortunately, visiting this country isn't as easy as one would think. His visas were denied. So in February of 2009 (TWO & A HALF YEARS LATER!) I decided that I'd waited long enough! This crazy KISS fan was going to Brazil!!!
I went, all alone. Rodrigo met me at the airport, just like he said he would. Our first hug was ELECTRIC! Our first kiss...there was more fire between us than at a KISS show! Everything we always thought we had was 100% REAL and we were together, FINALLY!!!
During my stay in Brazil (and after winning over his family and friends), we got engaged and decided to shoot for a K-1 fiancé visa to get him to the US, so we could finally start a life together. This is a difficult process which took over a year to finally accomplish. The US consulate in Brazil did not believe our relationship was valid. Our families and friends wrote letters and put their own names on the line for us. Then in February of this year, he was finally granted the visa to come here!
We were just married on July 10th and we couldn't be happier! We wanted to share our happiness with you. We wanted to thank YOU, KISS, for bringing us together in the first place, and let you know that on July 29th, in Pittsburgh, we'll see our first KISS concert, TOGETHER!!!!
Your music has inspired and motivated us both throughout our whole lives. It's gotten us both through the roughest thing that either of us has ever gone through. THANK YOU! For EVERYTHING! We hope to thank you in person some day!

From: chris allen (SSG, U.S. Army) on 07/24/2010
Thank you for honoring Veterans! I have been a KISS fan since 1977. I have seen KISS perform in NY, TN, CO and WY. I was at the Cheyenne, WY show last night. Definatly NOT the best venue for KISS, the roof over the stands blocked the view of much of what was going on-had I known when I bought tickets I would have bought Party Zone but the online sellers werent that clear on seating! Any way, my point was supposed to be-Thank you KISS. You reconized Veterans and thank us. I appreciate it and Paul, the Pledge of Allegience had me tear up as I recitied it with you. KISS, you have been with me through three deployments to Iraq and 20 years of Military service, and 30 plus years of my life. Thank You for the Music

I cant wait for my son Travis too see you guys at the Minnesota state Fair. My first 8 track was Kiss and all of my sons cd are Kiss. He loves listening to Kiss and can't wait for him to see you guys Live. I even named my daughter Shandi from Kiss Unmasked. Is there any chance that you guys could sing Shandi at the concert that would be awesome. My son has Down Syndrome (he does not know his own strength) and we had bought him his second drum set as he wore out the other one playing along with your guys cd's and please in your dvd dont break your guitars, he is on his third one. Thanks Paul. LMAO Thanks for the many great memories for myself and my children. Chad

My wife, Diana, and I are from Northwest Indiana and are celebrating our 1 year Wedding Anniversary on July 30th. We are celebrating by going to see KISS in Cincinnati on the same day. What a better way to celebrate our lives together with the #1 Band in the whole world. KISS has always been a part of my life since the age of four and at 38, I am still a huge fan. KISS has helped me through some hard times in my life and has helped me celebrate the good times through their music. I am excited to see them on the most important day for Diana and me. It is the best way to celebrate a wonderful day. Thank you for making me happy for all of these years.
Your Fan, George Shulock
