after 50 years of Kiss, the band is now interested in a kind of digital immortality.

...This feels like a punishment..

I saw KISS a few years ago. Paul Stanley led the crowd in the pledge of allegiance because “patriotism is cool”. I want to know if they incorporate that into their avatar show.

Stanley seems like a real tool. A quick trip searching his name and controversy nets some interesting info.

Regarding him being a right wing dbag, it certainly seems possible.

Lol. This is the most "Kiss" thing they could do. Of anyone who would try to make a band of avatars to take over, kiss would be my most ex0ected to do so.
