Gene Simmons is standing in front of you, looking just as bad-ass as he does in his concerts and as he sounds on his recordings. You can only watch in utter amazement as his fingers hit the strings of his bass and his song is heard...
A Gene Simmons is rarely seen without the other members of the original KISS. Solitary Gene Simmons' are usually seen at taverns or other places where their music is welcome, though it is very hard to meet one given the crowd they usually attract wherever they go. Gene Simmons' speak Common.
