Join the ARMY
It’s Friday. I’m a KISS fan. And I got to meet Mean Gene back stage in Atlantic City several years ago.
While this story has no relevance with regards to successful international diplomacy whatsoever… it DOES bolster my view of Sec of State Condi Rice.
Excerpt from AP:
STOCKHOLM, Sweden (AP) — The Kiss Army fan club has an enthusiastic new recruit: Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.
In a departure from her normally staid diplomatic duties, Rice met the legendary glam rock quartet when they happened to share a hotel in the Swedish capital. Rice was in Stockholm on Thursday for an international conference on Iraq. Kiss had a sold-out gig to play on Friday.
“I was thrilled,” Rice said of her late-night encounter with frontman Gene Simmons and bandmates Paul Stanley, Eric Singer and Tommy Thayer in the executive lounge of the Sheraton Hotel where they signed autographs and handed out backstage passes and T-shirts to her staff.
“It was really fun to meet Kiss and Gene Simmons,” she told reporters, noting they seemed well informed about current events. The band had asked if she could stop by after she finished dinner with the Swedish foreign minister and Rice readily agreed, she said.
Perhaps it’s time to give Beth a lyrical makeover… Oh Condi, what can I do?!
