part 1 of an episode of the henry rollins show, in which he talks to gene simmons.
i’m no kiss fan, nor do i agree with the vast majority of what gene says, but it’s a very odd situation where his honesty and braggadocio regarding the fact that he’s rich as fuck and has done everything he has done in his life for the sake of money make listening to him speak a hugely compelling experience. we’re treated to so many people claiming the way of the artiste, and i guess it’s weird and kinda cool to get pretty much the opposite of that.
“once you don’t have to work for a living, you become (pardon my bluntness) filthy rich, you don’t have the right to complain about anything.”
worthwhile watch if that seems at all interesting to you.
