Hello Gene!
My name is Jenny Drinkwine and I would like to know what it would take for you to come to my son's 10th birthday party. I know it sounds crazy but he wants a KISS birthday party and he is one of your biggest and youngest fans. I am not asking for you to come in costume but to please make an appearance, and it is not until November. We live in a small town that Kiss played in in 1974 called Jackson, Michigan and you played at the Optimist Arena. I know that this is a lot to ask for and all but I want this birthday to be the best one ever. My son is Steven and he is not only a good student in school he is a cub scout, and an Orange Stripe in Karate. Thank you for your time and please consider this, it will be small and you don't have to worry about a ton of people coming because it would be only like 20 people in all. Thanks for your consideration, Jenny Drinkwine
Response from Gene:
Jenny, as much as I would love to come to your son's 10th Birthday party, it's very difficult having my own family, business obligations, tv shows and....well, I'm sure you get the idea. But Happy Birthday to your wonderful son.
Dear Mr. Simmons,
I just wanted to share this picture with you since you are also a family man. My son Michael, who just turned 3 on June 30 is an avid KISS fan. He is especially obsessed with YOU. My daughter Amanda, who is 5 years old is now becoming a KISS fan also. This all began thanks to one of my best friends Andrew, who is a lifelong KISS fan. He turned my son onto it and to be honest, me as well. I never really got into KISS, but now I own all the Kissology DVD's and love it. I also watch Gene Simmons' Family Jewels every chance I get. The more I see you, the more I respect you as a professional but most of all a father..
Tragically, my father who was my best friend, died in my arms two years ago and since then I've never been the same. Now that my son started loving KISS, I saw his passion and it made me believe again. It made me believe that there are miracles and happiness in the world, it's not always hurt.
What I'm trying to say is basically thank you for being the true professional that you are and the inspiration for myself and my family.
God Bless (and a heartfelt Happy Birthday!)
Sincerely,
Richard Barone

GOOD MORNING GENE & HAPPY BIRTHDAY
WILL THERE BE ANOTHER SEASON OF FAMILY JEWELS? HOPE SO
Response from Gene:
Yes. Started filming 4th Season. We did some couch interviews last night.
Hi Gene,
First of all, Happy Birthday!! I met you in New York at your book signing (photo attached). My question is if Kiss is planning an east coast leg of the 35th anniversary tour, specifically, the Northeast such as Providence or Boston. Thank you.

Response from Gene:
Yes.

Dear Gene,
I know you probably won't post this. First, I will wish you a happy birthday and not because others already have. I know your birthday is the 25th. You so deserve a happy one and I, for some reason, know it will be a happy one because you will make it that way. You truly are an inspiration to many of us. For me, especially. Meeting you was honestly one of the best things that ever happened to me. I always check the letters because I love your responses and the way your mind works. With all due respect I have to disagree with one of your latest responses.
<<Respectfully, the dirtiest part of your body is your mouth. More germs per sq inch than anywhere. Then, that's followed by your hands -- wash em often. Feet? Relatively harmless.
Do the research.
And re Shannon getting mad....she gets mad at nothing. Life is wonderful because I make it so.>>
Now, I may be wrong here and I'm willing to accept that. All technicalities aside, to me, the dirtiest part of one's body is THE MIND. Am I wrong? : ]
xoxoxox,
Chrissy
Response from Gene:
Well....ok, you're right. But we're obviously not using "dirty" in the same way, right? And, one person's "dirty" is another person's "naughty".
Hi Gene..
I just wanted to send you a little something for your birthday... Enjoy big guy!!!
KISSES
Andora Jobb
