TheWatShot Posted August 25, 2021 Report Share Posted August 25, 2021 I have a hard time believing there are current pictures of Luck on the Internet. That guy has been invisible for the past 2 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's one a couple months before camp started that year at his book club he does. Even 4 years ago he didn't look physically ready. If he looks significantly worse than that now, then something is definitely not good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Birthday Gene I read not long ago about a roadie calling him Chaim in front of fans and then having to run from a very pissed Gene. Fun personality and some great sing-a-longs, but in the grand scheme of things, KISS wasn't really a talented musical band and it seems Gene was a pretty big douche to work with. Recently, he's been feuding with David Lee Roth (who's probably also a douche to work with) and kicked him off their current tour. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He marketed the heck out of KISS and lived the American dream coming from absolutely nothing to where he is today. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are entertaining even if Gene is a real life douche. Gotta respect his marketing savvy...at their peak, I can't think of any band who was bigger. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went and saw them at Market Square in the mid 70s...the glitz, the energy, and the fact that 99% of the crowd thought "Christ, I could write better songs and play better than that!" was their hook...to me, the consummate garage band (with makeup!)...

Ok, DD might be on to something. The first picture is Luck from 2 years ago, right before sh*t hit the fan. The second is from a few weeks ago when he was in Colorado.

I just didn't learn too much about Civil War history in school. We barely covered it. But I remember my teacher pointing out what he thought were the 2 big things at the start. (1) Lee didn't agree with the secession. But being a Virginian came 1st. (2) Lincoln appointing McClellan as the Commander of the Union Army. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lincoln made a couple of bad choices for Commander of the Union Army from the beginning... McClellan and Henry Halleck... When Lincoln replaced Halleck with Grant, Halleck told Lincoln, "The man's a drunkard!" Supposedly Lincoln replied, "Find out what he drinks. I want to send the rest of our generals a barrel." 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the early episodes included a segment on Harland Sanders and I found it highly entertaining. In one scene, Harland caught someone painting over one of his billboards and he shot at the guy with a 12 gauge. It was the most Kentucky thing ever...🤣 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
