laughedatbytime Posted January 22, 2022 Posted January 22, 2022 Yeah, from embarrassment. https://rockcelebrities.net/gene-simmons-thinks-geddy-lee-would-pass-out-if-he-performed-with-kiss-outfits/?fbclid=IwAR3XNt66gq_irzVC7CCXhNmWrEUXTbUOa9Tm4hFi1WqQITHEMQ8G9y6Q0PE I love Alex, I love Geddy and all the Canadian talent and everything but, if Geddy got into my outfit with seven, eight-inch platform heels and 40 pounds of additional armor, studs, bass, and stuff. Having to spit fire and fly through the air and walk around with an additional 40 pounds, my friends is going to pass out in half an hour.” 7
Entre_Perpetuo Posted January 22, 2022 Posted January 22, 2022 What? Lol. Not sure there's any context where this isn't just a very random thing to say, lol. 1
1-0-0-1-0-0-1 Posted January 22, 2022 Posted January 22, 2022 And Gene would pass out from trying to play one of Geddy's bass lines. 21
grep Posted January 22, 2022 Posted January 22, 2022 (edited) And Gene would pass out from trying to play one of Geddy's bass lines. Or stepping on a Taurus Pedal while singing and playing one of those bass lines at the same time. Edited January 22, 2022 by grep 9

IbanezJem Posted January 22, 2022 Posted January 22, 2022 Fortunately, in this forum we value our musicians on their musical skills, rather than how much they can carry on their shoulders like pack mules :crazy: 10

Weatherman Posted January 22, 2022 Posted January 22, 2022 God, he's obsessed with swinging his own dick.I saw his pretty wife, Shannon, once at a Starbucks in LA. I kinda wanted to walk up to her and say, "You really don't have to be with him. Come be with me instead." lol 5

Bahamas Posted January 23, 2022 Posted January 23, 2022 (edited) I love that KISS and Rush have this relationship so many years onward, but really...KISS chose to look like a theatrical act with costumes but the music was fairly simple (ouch? = but catchy, so catchy!).Rush chose kimonos, literally the lightest material you can wear as a costume.So yes Geddy would faint with Gene's armour, but Gene would faint trying to trigger all the sounds and hit all the right buttons as a trio that sounded like ten people rocking the stage. Edit: They have similarities, interesting to me, family histories of concentration camps, both of (mixed) Jewish descent, both bassists...But, no where near the similarities of being instrumentalists, more alike as awesome stage performers in their own ways.

J2112YYZ Posted January 23, 2022 Posted January 23, 2022 (edited) Well, of course Geddy would pass out doing that. Geddy plays more notes in a single song than Gene has his entire career. Edited January 23, 2022 by J2112YYZ 3

Babycat Posted January 23, 2022 Posted January 23, 2022 I'm surprised Gene Simmons hasn't passed out from wearing all that gear... 2
IbanezJem Posted January 23, 2022 Posted January 23, 2022 I always think of KISS as GWAR for lightweights. 5

She looked very, very good, even as an older woman just waiting for a latte. I'm at least fifteen years younger but she still caught my eye. I think I caught hers too -- at least that's how I remember it. Edited January 23, 2022 by Weatherman

What else is a former Playboy Playmate T&A show to do but hook up with some rock star and put up with his infidelities, just so she can have "The Lifestyle"..... 1

This is interesting. Maybe that's why they got along so well. There was that story in the music press a few years back about how Gene had escorted Nancy Lee into his dressing room and left Geddy locked outside. You'd think they wouldn't have got along so well after that!
ozzy85 Posted January 23, 2022 Posted January 23, 2022 Fortunately, in this forum we value our musicians on their musical skills, rather than how much they can carry on their shoulders like pack mules :crazy:That's why I play onstage nude. More mobility, less sweat. My drummer doesn't like it, though. 1
Geddyleegenes Posted January 24, 2022 Posted January 24, 2022 Yes, it's extremely fortunate that Geddy is so talented. An accomplished musician, singer, writer. Otherwise, he might have to dress up in a silly costume and wear goofy make-up so as to distract fans from a lack of talent. 2
