They look the same!

[Bgkgtjh]

Yeah they do, it's so weird :P

[MrThewicho]

@SuperMike82, no, he was not, thayer was a member in COLD GIN (kiss tribute band), and spiro in ALIVE

[SuperMike82]

@rachadw I think he'd be the logical choice. Wasn't Spiro also Gene in Tommy Thayer's tribute band?

Gene looks like Ozzy when he screams 'WHY?'

I know all about the long history of disagreement, animosity and other problems amongst the four original members of KISS, & I know that they will never again reunite. But I must say that it makes me feel so GOOD to see them all together again, & in makeup! I feel as if I'm 14 once more, in 1977! There was a powerful & unique chemistry between Gene, Paul, Ace & Peter that made the original line-up of KISS so special to millions of fans. All trials & tribulations aside, this KISS was pure MAGIC!

In the restaurant ad,was the real Gene?

[bloodfarts991]

dude thats creapy how much they look the same

[rachadw]

What if Gene decides to retire, I would think Spiro should be picked as Gene's replacement.

@762459  i THINK gene is to the left but i´m not sure ....

woah i didnt know they had a deal with nike, well they did just do it, with many girls, so i guess that explains it
