PAUL STANLEY: A REUNION OF ORIGINAL KISS LINE-UP IS IMPOSSIBLE …

by MythofRock

Paul Stanley, KISS co-founder, guitarist and singer, said that a reunion of the original line-up of KISS is impossible. In a new interview at SiriusXM’s “Jim & Sam Show”, he was asked why he thinks fans are so attached to the idea of a reunion of the band’s original lineup and he answered:  “Well, the original four are the original four. We were the ones who started this and created the template that we still stand by today. I think where people go wrong is when they think that things can remain timeless and that time doesn’t take its toll. You may want mom and dad to be back together, but it didn’t work out. And we had amazing moments and amazing times, and we did some phenomenal things together which, look, tie me to them forever. But that’s not the fairy tale; it doesn’t end there. I’ve said before: we couldn’t have been here without Ace (Frehley, guitar) and Peter (Criss, drums), and we couldn’t be here today with Ace and Peter… I think people yearn for something that is — I was gonna say ‘impractical.’ I would say impossible. It’s great to look back on, but it’s not that different than if you break up with somebody and years later you go, ‘Wow. Why did that happen? Let me go back.’ You go back and it’s not the same anymore. And you quickly realize, as we did, why it didn’t work out the first time. That’s why it didn’t work out the second time.”
