PodKISSt #60: All Hell’s About to Break Loose!
Sorry to have taken so long! (You must of been…well you know) We know it’s been a while, but it’s been busy here at PodKISSt headquarters and we’re glad to be back! Things are starting to heat up in the KISS world as we gear up for all things MONSTER! On this, the 60th PodKISSt (!), we take a look at what’s on the horizon for the KISS Army in 2012 and beyond. Of course, by the time you’re hearing this, some of our speculation will no longer sound relevant as more and more details are revealed by KISS themselves… but we wanna make sure to share that “calm before the storm” excitement with you, our loyal listeners! Big thanks to Brian Coddington for his great contributions to this episode, and a big shout-out to PodKISSt’s very own Matt Porter, whose “KISS Room” radio show can be heard live every month on Montco Radio and through podomatic.com. So sit back and get ready for some rare live KISS and an even rarer 1970’s interview with Gene… plus plenty of other goodies… on PodKISSt, the KISS fanzine for your ears!

R.I.P. Eddie Balandas (1952-2011).
R.I.P. Eddie Balandas (1952-2011). Eddie was known as “the voice of KISS Alive II.” His thunderous intro can be heard at the start of the album, and was a rallying call to the thousands of fans who saw KISS live in the mid-to-late 1970’s. I was lucky enough to co-host and produce a podcast to which Eddie was a contributor, as recently as July of 2011. He was beloved and valued by the KISS Army, and Eddie was generous with his time and attention. He had great stories to tell and wasn’t shy about sharing them! He is immortalized as KISS’ announcer, and he kept them safe by working security at the peak of their 1970’s popularity. I’m grateful for the time he devoted to PodKISSt, and regret not having had the opportunity to meet him in person. We wanted the best and we got the best. You’ll be missed, Eddie.
Eddie can be heard in conversation here on PodKISSt: http://podkisst.com/?p=824
