Episode 341, July 9, 2019. This week’s edition of Three Sides Of The Coin features an interview with The Demon himself, Kiss bassist/vocalist Gene Simmons, in conversation with British rock writer (Record Collector magazine) and musician (with UK metalheads Black Sheets Of Rain) Rich Davenport. Simmons discusses what Kiss have in store for fans once the current End Of The Road tour concludes, revealing that the band have unreleased material ready to roll in the vaults, and plans for other projects including a movie and “…all kinds of stuff that makes purists furious.”

Says Davenport: “I was offered the chance to interview Gene for Record Collector magazine (www.recordcollectormag.com) as the band hit Europe for a series of shows, and as a fan of the band since I was 12 years old, I aimed to ask questions that would appeal to long-serving members of the Kiss Army. Gene was cordial and candid about such topics as the band’s reasons for making this tour their last, the possibility of an all-new line-up carrying on the Kiss name, his relationship with former guitarist Ace Frehley since Ace got sober, the origins of the bands vast range of collectible merchandise, the early days of Casablanca Records, and the different ways in which Kiss is perceived by audiences in different countries around the world. I had a lot more material from Gene than it was possible to include in the feature I wrote, so I contacted the guys at Three Sides Of The Coin, and on this week’s show, they’re airing the full-length audio version, giving you the unexpurgated Thoughts Of Chairman Simmons, on everything from Stevie Wonder to Scooby Doo.”

An abridged version of the interview appears in the current edition of Record Collector, along with a guide to the top ten Kiss collectables, compiled by Ingo Floren, author of The Official Price Guide To Kiss Collectibles, and is available from www.recordcollectormag.com

Episode 340, July 2,, 2019. We take you back to the very early days of Creem Magazine in Detroit, MI as we are joined by journalist and co-founder of Creem Jaan Uhelszki. Jaan may be best known to KISS fans as the author of "I Dreamed I Was Onstage with KISS in My Maidenform Bra" which documents the night she performed in full costume and makeup with KISS—the only rock journalist ever to do so.

Jaan shares what the rest of the Creem staff thought of KISS. How she came up with the Maidenform Bra story, what was happening in the dressing room, what it was like on-stage. She also talks about being at the party with Gene Simmons where he got high on a pot brownie and how he was acting once he was high. What did he have to drink. Jaan shares the story about how the unmasked photos that Creem took of KISS were stolen and were released. She also gives insight into fellow Creem journalists Dave Marsh and Lester Bangs. And we play a word association game with Jaan that reveals some surprising responses.

Episode 332, May 7, 2019. You never thought this would happen! We never thought it would happen! The crossover match you have been waiting to happen for years. The match you thought would never happen. The two heavyweights of podcasting in the ring together for the very first time.

In one corner we have… The YouTube sensation. The Kisstards aggravation. Always stops and smells flowers. Too clean to take showers. After you face his wrath. He will take a bath. At night he fights crime. A few coins short of a roll of dimes. A lunatic run amuck. He is the illustrious Dr.Fukk.

And in the opposite corner we have the podcast you love to hate, the team collectively know as The Strong Arm of Podcasts… accompanied by their valet the Weather Girl Lisa Martini and of course that tool, their manager Michael Brandvold. The Meatloaf Wrecking Crew of… Mark Cicchini and Tommy Sommers.

This show is one fall, two hour time limit, no disqualifications for the bragging rights of the most hated, biggest asshole in podcasting.

In our discussion Eric recalls how they mentioned maybe forming a band with Eric BEFORE KISS was formed.

Eric Troyer is singer and keyboardist (and sometimes guitarist) for the iconic classic-rock band THE ORCHESTRA which features ELO and ELO Pt 2 former members.

With over 100 recording credits, Eric has recorded in the studio with the likes of John Lennon (on Woman from Double Fantasy), Billy Joel (on Uptown Girl and other tracks on An Innocent Man), Bonnie Tyler (on the mega-hit Total Eclipse of the Heart), and with Celine Dion, James Taylor, Carly Simon, Billy Joel, Kiss, Aerosmith, Meatloaf, Barry Manilow, Air Supply, Barbra Streisand, Lou Reed and many others. Eric has scored for film, TV, and documentaries, his voice and vocal arrangements are on many films, including Footloose, Chicago, Adventures in Babysitting, DC Cab, and Streets of Fire, and he has worked extensively in the past producing, scoring, writing, and singing radio and TV commercials

Episode 327, April 2, 2019. This week we tackle the topic of Band Vs. Brand with heavy metal scholar Bob Nalbandian. Bob is very vocal about his opinion of KISS and KISS fans. This was an amazing discussion on not just KISS, but heavy metal.

Bob published the seminal heavy metal fanzine The Headbanger in 1982, a nationally distributed zine which featured the very first profiles of then-unsigned LA bands Metallica, Slayer & Megadeth. Throughout the '80s & '90s he was a contributing editor to several well-known music mags including; Creem, Music Connection, Hit Parader, BAM, Foundations, Loud, Metal Rendezvous as well as publisher/editor of Shockwaves Magazine. He landed guitarist Marty Friedman in the multi-platinum group Megadeth and soon after I headed the west coast office of Roadrunner Records working closely with the labels cutting-edge artists at the time, including Sepultura, Type-O Negative, and Last Crack.

Here is how you calculate average... The mean is the average of the numbers. It is easy to calculate: add up all the numbers, then divide by how many numbers there are. In other words it is the sum divided by the count. We can't wait for the excuses!

Serpent, but unfortunately David was experiencing significant issues with the internet (he recently bought Mark's KISS router) so we weren't able to speak with him, he will be back. So in the spur of the moment Mark threw out the question... remove one song from the set list and add one song. But, soon after the entire show goes off the rails with a discussion about the difference between subjective and objective and which one is Three Sides of the Coin (we are subjective). We have never been objective, we have never been fair and balanced reporting, we are show built around our personal opinions and commentary... not yours. Start your own show and you can share your subjective views.

Episode 306, October 30, 2018. Three Sides on the Side this week as Mark and Tommy are getting ready for the KISS Kruise. Michael flies solo and is joined by Hunter Goatley and we really geek out on the very early days of KISS on the internet. Hunter started the KISS Army email list back in 1992 and the KISSserv website which was one of the very first websites every about KISS. Things were so different back in 1992... social media didn't exist. Websites barely existed. YouTube, Google, Yahoo, Amazon, Facebook, Twitter... didn't exist. But KISS fans found ways to share news and find other fans from around the world.

Episode 272, March 6, 2018. This week we are joined by the legend, Big John Harte! Big John was head of KISS security and is famous for being the man who would stick his hand in the face of photographers trying to take pictures of KISS without makeup. Of course John did much, much more than making sure nobody took a picture of KISS out of makeup and we talk with him about all of the various things he did for KISS. John also talks about his soon to be released autobiography and the Pledgemusic.com campaign he launched and the many cool rewards you can purchase.

When it comes to celebrity bodyguards, few fill the heart and imagination like Big John Harte. Plucked by fate from obscurity, Big John’s brooding presence, wry sense of humor, and gentle giant image is the stuff of legends.

Big John Harte, protector of Rock Gods: Kiss, Iron Maiden, Billy Idol, Prince and more! The now-classic images of this hulking wrestler-like mustachioed man with his giant hands shielding an unmasked Kiss member are indelibly etched into your brain. It’s symbolic of the important role Big John played throughout the years — from the heady, narcissistic 70s til today — creating a human barrier between the public and some of our favorite stars. It would be hard to think of the glory days of Rock and Heavy Metal without him.

You know the lore, now find out where and how it all began…

Episode 267, January 23, 2018. While in Detroit to personally hand deliver the Gene Simmons Vault to his fans, Gene Simmons sat down with the KISS podcast Three Sides of the Coin.

During this 20 minute conversation with Three Sides of the Coin cohost Mark Cicchini Gene discusses his massive Gene Simmons Vault Box Set, including why it took so long for the three songs featuring Alex and Eddie Van Halen to finally be released. Gene addresses a couple historical questions that KISS fans have been wondering about for decades; did he spit blood on the first night of the Lick It Up tour and did KISS have to wear their Love Gun costumes on the first night of the Creatures of the Night tour. Gene also discusses his 1978 solo album and how it was going to include Jerry Lee Lewis as well as John Lennon and Paul McCartney. Finally in a topic near and dear to some KISS fans, Gene talks about his hair, yes his hair!

Episode 250, October 24, 2017. Jay Gilbert returns to join us this week as our "expert witness" as we discuss photo copyrights. This discussion is in reaction to the recent events on the KISS Chikara Facebook group when photographer Lynn Goldsmith asked to have one of her photos removed. Ever to typical, many KISS fans over reacted. Attacking Lynn personally, attacking her business, attacking her skills. So we discuss the reality of copyrights and how Lynn and every photographer is entirely in their rights to ask for their images to not be used. It is time for fans to STOP telling artists how they should run their business and it is time for them to start supporting and respecting the artists work.

Head over the Amazon.com right now and buy Lynn Goldsmith's brand new book of KISS photos.

Episode 233, June 20, 2017. Larry Harris Co-founder of Casablanca Records with Neil Bogart Joins Us to Talk About KISS and Casablanca! Larry Harris began working for Buddah/Kama Sutra Records in the summer of 1971 as the local New York promotions man, and in 1973 joined his cousin Neil Bogart in founding Casablanca Records. He became senior vice president and managing director of the company in 1976 and left Casablanca in the fall of 1980. Larry was born in New York and now lives and works in Seattle.

Larry is also the author of And Party Every Day: The Inside Story of Casablanca Records. The true, behind-the-scenes story of Casablanca Records, from an eyewitness to the excess and insanity. Casablanca was not a product of the 1970s, it was the 1970s. From 1974 to 1980, the landscape of American culture was a banquet of hedonism and self-indulgence, and no person or company in that era was more emblematic of the times than Casablanca Records and its magnetic founder, Neil Bogart. From his daring first signing of KISS, through the discovery and superstardom of Donna Summer, the Village People, and funk master George Clinton and his circus of freaks, Parliament Funkadelic, to the descent into the manic world of disco, this book charts Bogart's meteoric success and eventual collapse under the weight of uncontrolled ego and hype. It is a compelling tale of ambition, greed, excess, and some of the era's biggest music acts.

Episode 231, May 30, 2017. Who remembers when KISS started KISS Central in 1988? It was a way to sort of organize and support the many fan clubs and fanzines at the time. Gilda Caserta was hired by KISS to run KISS Central. Gilda is a big KISS fan and shares her amazing stories and memories from 1988 to 1992. Her story of being interviewed by Gene is worth the price of admission all by itself! Or her story of when Gene called her mom at home. We are stepping up to the plate and pointing to the bleachers in the outfield... this is a home run! And this is only part one of Gilda's story, part two involves running the Rock Soldiers fan club for Ace Frehley!

Episode 202, November 1, 2016. This week we boldly go where no KISS podcast has gone before. We are joined by John Champion the cohost of the Star Trek podcast Mission Log. What? Star Trek? Yes, we discuss fandom... the fans of KISS and the fans of Star Trek and how they are not very different. Both have strong opinionated fans. Both have fans that think of themselves as gatekeepers... deciding who is a real fan, who is worthy fan. Star Trek has originals only fans. KISS has originals only fans. Star Trek and KISS have been around for decades and will be around for many more years as new, young fans discover both properties.

This show was inspired by the following article http://www.treknews.net/2016/07/01/rihanna-is-a-bigger-star-trek-fan-than-you/

A lifelong science fiction enthusiast, John has moderated panels and hosted special events at fan conventions. A number of years ago he started on a long series of video interviews and has produced segments featuring dozens of the creators and talents behind Star Trek.

Episode 196, September 20, 2016. Mark Montague joins us to discuss his book Let The Cat Out Of The Bag and his time working with KISS drummer Peter Criss.

Bassist extraordinaire Mark Montague reveals in detail his incredible musical journey, from beginnings in San Francisco to gigs galore on Hollywood's storied Sunset Strip, leading him to join forces with Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame drummer Peter Criss of KISS, and receiving a certified multi-platinum record award as a member of Five For Fighting.

Let The Cat Out Of The Bag provides an in depth look at the highs and lows of his lengthy stint with a living musical legend, highlighting the many setbacks, triumphs, tragedies, and everything in between. Mind boggling, entertaining, true anecdotes that will leave you begging for more. 124 pages filled with classic stories and rarely seen photos from Mark's personal collection, including many from his days with the band Criss.

This is NOT your average dirty laundry tell-all book. This is the good, the bad and the ugly told in a beautiful, peaceful, yet twisted manner. The old adage 'truth is stranger than fiction' comes alive in Let The Cat Out Of The Bag.

Countless funny, true adventures cherry picked from the Tallman's career, emphasizing his years with the one and only 'Catman', and also featuring tales of jamming with original KISS guitarist and fellow touring compatriot Ace Frehley.

We also announce that all four of us from Three Sides of the Coin will be attending the NJ KISS Expo on October 9th! Tickets and details can be found online at www.NJKISSExpo.com

Episode 190, August 9, 2016. This week we are joined by The World's Leading Authority on the Rock Group KISS, Robert Duncan! Robert is the author of the first book on KISS, released in 1978.

Robert Duncan was part of the "second wave" of writers for Creem magazine, becoming managing editor from 1975 to 1976. In Creem′s 1977 Reader Poll, he finished third in balloting for "Best Rock Critic" behind Lester Bangs and Robert Christgau. During this time he was also a regular contributor to Christgau's Pazz and Jop poll. He has written for various publications, such as Rolling Stone, Circus, Hit Parader, Life and City (San Francisco), and authored three books about rock music, musicians and culture, including The Noise: Notes from a Rock 'n' Roll Era (Ticknor & Fields, 1984), Kiss (Popular Library, 1978) and Only the Good Die Young: The Rock 'n' Roll Book of the Dead (Crown, 1986). His lengthy characterization of Heavy Metal as "dismal, abysmal, terrible, horrible, and stupid music, barely music at all" has been cited multiple times by academics as evidence of the contempt most critics held for the genre. He is also the co-founder, co-owner and president of the San Francisco-based advertising agency Duncan/Channon.

Episode 189, August 2, 2016. This week we debate what makes a classic KISS song. Mark has his idea and Tommy and Michael have a different idea. Is it the classic sound that matters or is it some sort of outside influence such as radio airplay, video airplay? We also play another round of Krank, Kill, Redo our version of F**k, Marry, Kill. Mark and Tommy get their wish and this week we include Crazy Nights.

Paul Stanley - “A song can only become classic as it gains age,” he reflects. “Fine wine has to age. What makes a song classic is that it endures. You have a time period or an event that’s associated with it. That doesn’t happen overnight. “Psycho Circus has become a classic. Lick It Up has become a classic. Do I think Hell Or Hallelujah will? Absolutely.”

This week's episode #225 we discuss charity with Chris Brandt from Music Heals Canada.

Music Heals - http://www.musicheals.ca/

We discuss how artists can give back, and furthermore, how that is beneficial for them and their promotion.

We have found that artists can do a lot to support their favourite cause, and many of those ways don't involve money out of the artist's pocket.

Picking a charity that provides a promotional arm to the artists, and gives back in terms of promoting the artist's releases and tours, is a new opportunity.

The media often doesn't want to hear about another new artist touring through their city. However if the artist initiates their press push with a charity angle, it gives the media something to write about and often results in ink that the artist wouldn't normally receive.

This week's episode #222 we comment on a recent article Why Entrepreneurs Need to Be Scramblers by Fran Tarkenton. Fran was the quarterback for the Minnesota Vikings and was known for his ability to scramble. Every band/musician is a entrepreneur and this article has some amazing advice that can be applied directly to every band, every musician.

"You come up with a plan, but no matter how much time you spend preparing, there’s a good chance something will happen that you weren’t prepared for. The play starts to break down. When a product doesn’t sell like you expected, a marketing campaign flops, a new competitor moves into your market, you have to do something. I still scramble. I look for a way to get closer to my goal and find something that works. If one thing isn’t working, then change it. Stay focused at all times on what’s going on and keep moving. Never stand still and let the defense knock you down."

This week's episode #221 we comment on a recent article ROCK AND ROLL IS DEAD, AND EVEN AXL & SLASH CAN'T SAVE IT by Kristy Loye in the HoustonPress. Yeah another person claiming rock is dead. Only in this case we really question what Kristy is saying, if she understands the music business and has any idea how playlists are curated on streaming services. It is a great opinion piece for sure, but not very factual.

This week's episode #218 we are joined by Patrick Mahoney from Manhead Merch to discuss music merchandise. Why you should consider partnering with someone to produce and sell your merch. What is licensing when it comes to your logo and likeness. Why merchandise is more than just a black t-shirt. Why you shouldn't ignore the black t-shirt... and so much more!

Patrick Mahoney, Manhead Merch, www.manheadmerch.com

Patrick Mahoney has been a part of music and entertainment merchandising for over twenty years with practical experience in every facet of the industry - artist relations, operations, production, licensing, sponsorships, budgeting/finance and administration. Fifteen of those twenty years have been spent in senior level positions based in New York, London, Los Angeles and Nashville. Patrick also has a high level of practical experience in other areas of the music industry including artist management and tour production and accounting.

Despite his varied experience, Patrick still considers working with the artists his favorite endeavor. There are hundreds of bands on his "worked with" list including Oasis, Radiohead, Godsmack, Slipknot, Moby, Mudvayne, Of Monsters And Men, Fall Out Boy, Train, Yes, Danzig, Rush, Suicide Silence, Blues Traveler, The Moody Blues, Blood On The Dance Floor, Phish, The Moody Blues, Jimmy Cliff, Fall Out Boy, In This Moment, Brian Setzer and Sarah McLachlan.

This week's episode #215 we are joined by Keith Bernstein from CrunchDigital.com to discuss royalties and licensing in the digital age. We answer these questions:

What is causing music revenue to appear to be going down or not growing when you hear about all these digital music services that see to be exploding in growth and adaption?

How easy it for music apps to license music?

Why isn't there a global rights database?

Do you think digital services have a lot of unpaid royalties that are sitting in a "black box?"

Keith Bernstein - www.CrunchDigital.com

Crunch Digital is a next-generation technology company that offers innovative services that connect content creators and digital services with copyright owners for new digital distribution channels, creating more revenue opportunities for everyone involved.

Episode 147, October 13, 2015. Lots of interesting discussion this week. In his heart does Gene Simmons want to end with the original band? Who owns Ace Frehley and Peter Criss' makeup, we end this debate with facts. Peter Criss made a appearance at Guitar Center and sat down and played some drums... what does this mean? (Hint... NOTHING!) The sixth anniversary of the release of Sonic Boom. And a lot more!

Episode 143, September 15, 2015. Lisa Martini returns with three amazing business documents; two from 1977 and one from 1979. These documents are the meeting notes from financial/business meetings. It is a amazing contrast to see the discussions in 1977 when KISS is flying high vs the discussion in late 1979 when they are on the slide down. One of the greatest items recorded was when the band asked... when will they become millionaires. And we have the answer!

Episode 141, September 1, 2015. This was a painful episode to record. We each listened to our five worst KISS albums and then created a 10 song album containing the best songs from those bad albums. Thanks for putting us through this punishment Mark! What we ended up with is THE BEST OF THE WORST KISS ALBUMS. And we end with a discussion about our absolute worst KISS song, the song that just grates our ears.

Changing Domain Names & Changing Facebook Page names midstream. Bad! Episode 12 of War Stories from the Music Front with Michael Brandvold and Loren Weisman.

Episode 12 of war stories discusses a pretty big problem that has shown its ugly head in cases both with the smallest and biggest artists: Changing Domain Names and Changing Facebook Page Names as well as switching social media pages with out thinking it over first.

When simple changes are made that seem harmless, the results of changing domain names and changing social media page names can lead potential fans away from you as well as making you come off very unprofessional.

Episode 99, October 28, 2014. The new KISS Love Gun Deluxe was released today. We sit down and give you a track by track review of the bonus disc featuring demos, interviews and live tracks. Is this worth buying? What would make it better? The live Shock Me track features the entire Ace Frehley solo and ROCKS! We also spend some time wondering where is the promotion for the upcoming Ace Frehley tour? It has been very quiet in the online Ace world. Seems to us we should be hearing more "noise". Oh, and Mark had to leave early so he is not on part of the show... fear not, he didn't leave the show :) We truly love how important Three Sides has become to all of you... THANK YOU!

Since launching a year ago Three Sides of the Coin has been viewed or listened to over 500,000 times. In the last year, Three Sides of the Coin has been joined by special guests including former KISS lead guitarist Bruce Kulick, the Black Veil Brides' Andy Biersack, Frank Munoz associate producer for Ace Frehley's Anomaly album, award winning songwriter Adam Mitchell, Ed Kanon (Peter Criss' drum tech), and Kevin Valentine (drummer on KISS' Psycho Circus album). Three Sides of the Coin was recently picked (October 2013) as a 'What's Hot' podcast by Apple's iTunes.

In the early '90s, Michael Brandvold launched the fifth ever website on the Internet devoted to KISS, KISS Otaku. He was the first to build, launch and maintain Kissonline.com (KISS' official web presence). Tommy Sommers has spent many years on the record show circuit selling memorabilia and meeting many KISS fans.

It's only our opinion... it's neither right nor wrong.

Episode 95, September 30, 2014. This is the sloppy show. Ace Frehley recently was quoted as saying Paul Stanley is a sloppy guitar player. Ace said this! Ace, the guitar player whose beauty is his sloppy playing. Sort of like the pot calling the kettle black. We also discuss Vinnie Vincent and the foreclosure on his house. Something we aren't ashamed to discuss. We all also look back at some of our memories from attending many KISS expos. Mark shares are rare collectible, the original blueprints for the stage from the Love Gun tour. This ain't no Spencer's crap!

Videos you don't want seen. Marking the private videos correctly. Episode 11 of War Stories from the Music Front with Michael Brandvold and Loren Weisman.

Videos you don't want seen. Marking the private videos correctly Episode 11 of War Stories from the Music Front with Michael Brandvold and Loren Weisman.

Episode 11 of war stories discusses those videos you don't want to be seen. And no, we aren't talking about dirty stuff. We are talking about marking the private videos correctly for the labels, investors, management or those couple you want to have it viewed by.

Unlisted videos do not mean private and if you are working to roll out a video on a specific timeframe and you don't make it private, your fans will get a glimpse at the videos you don't want seen or at least not yet.

Those small steps can make the biggest difference. Be sure what you post is being seen only by those you want to see it. Its still a crap shoot with anything you post, but by taking the right steps such as making videos private and uploading videos the right way, you have a better chance at getting the views you want from the people you want.

Choosing a band name in 2014. Make yourself easier to be found. Episode 10 of War Stories from the Music Front with Michael Brandvold and Loren Weisman.

Episode 10 of war stories looks at what you should be thinking about when choosing a band name. From the SEO aspects to making it easier to be found to thinking about others online that might be competing with you.

When it comes down to naming the band in 2014, you have to think beyond just the creative elements of what you would like to be called and how people will be able to find you to call on you!

The uniformity in the early stages of not only choosing a band name, but also looking to see what is available for domain names, for social media sites and for overall competition to make sure you are on the right page and taking the right steps from the start.

Episode 82, July 1, 2014. We continue with What If... we start by discussing what if KISS used the Creatures of the Night costumes for The Elder, would the album have been seen as a heavier album? Then the discussion surprised us both by leading into What if... KISS took off the makeup for Unmasked? Would the path they followed lead them to be a Pop band and loose their heavy metal and hard rock feel? And... Mark Cicchini returns to share some very rare KISS Unmasked promotional items.

Episode 81, June 24, 2014. We discuss a couple viewer emails... WHAT IF... Eric Carr had never died. Would Revenge have been recorded? Would the reunion tour still happen?

This leads into some discussion about how we each felt about KISS during the 80's, well actually starting with The Elder. And... Mark Cicchini returns to share some very rare KISS buttons and badges from his collection.

How to book gigs that lead to more return shows. - Long term Planning. Episode 9 of War Stories from the Music Front with Michael Brandvold and Loren Weisman.

How to book gigs that lead to more gig - Long term Gigs & Planning Episode 9 of War Stories from the Music Front with Michael Brandvold and Loren Weisman.

Episode 9 digs in to the ideas around not only how to book gigs, but how to get repeat and return bookings from music venues. After you have been booking shows, are you set to do the follow through so that each show allows for the best connection, the best engagement and best chance at being able to return and convert those first time attendees to long time fans.

Taking a more long term planning approach, it will allow for so many more opportunities and allow you to build up your bookings in every market and show other markets how hard you work for your shows. When it comes down to answering the question, how to book gigs, the answer is to get out of the mindset of the single gig and move to the mindset that you care about your audience and standing out.

The Success of VIP Ticket Packages. Episode 8 of War Stories from the Music Front with Michael Brandvold and Loren Weisman.

Episode 8 of war stories talks about success. Every story doesn't have to come from the ashes of mistakes. Some things can come from taking the chances and doing it right and correct out of the gate. Michael talks about his time with KISS and in episode 8 from warm stories from the music front, Michael discusses the success of the VIP Ticket Packages that he created with KISS.

While every band does this today, when this was first put together over a decade ago by Michael, he was taking a chance, KISS was taking a chance and it paid off ten fold. Stick to your ideas, pay attention to what you are doing and what is happening around you.

In episode 63, May 6, 2014, of the Dropping The Needle podcast we reboot the show with version 2.0. We welcome our new cohost Izzy Presley. In this episode we discuss Sebastian Bach's recent interview where he asked, Why Only Half Of One Percent Of His Facebook Fans Bought His New Album.

On his new solo album, "Give 'Em Hell", selling around 4,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 72 on The Billboard 200 chart:

Sebastian: "I can't complain, because [2011's] 'Kicking & Screaming' came in at No. 72 on the Top 200, and 'Give 'Em Hell' came in at No. 71, so I'm not in a position to complain, but I have to say this, I have go to say the following statement. I have over 800,000 people that like my Facebook page, that read every word I write on my Facebook page — over 800,000 — and yesterday, it said... You know how it has next to the amount of people on the page, it says how many people are talking about the page? 75,000 or 80,000 people are talking about it. I would like to thank the 5,000 out of the 800,000 that got my record, and I would like to ask the other 795,000 people, 'Why are you on my page? Are you there to look at the pictures? Is that why you're there? 'Cause that's simple. If that's what you want, I'll put some pictures up, or whatever.' But I have no clue, when it says 800,000 people and 70,000 people today are talking about this, what are you talking about? What? Like, what are you talking about? [Laughs] I don't get it. Like, what? What? What? 'Oh, he's got a new record out. I've loved him for years. I'm not gonna buy that.' [Laughs] I don't get it. I don't understand. I don't get it. I don't know why you're on my page. Like, for what? Why? What? [Laughs] I totally don't get it.

"[The fact that rock albums don't sell a lot of copies nowadays is] way beyond me, bro. Country music fans go out and buy the CD. Rappers go out and buy the CD. Justin Bieber fans go out and get the CD. I've got 800,000 people on my page, and 795,000 of them don't get it. [Laughs] Thanks! Killer! Thank you! I appreciate that. Thank you, rock and rollers.

"It's up to the music fans. It's, like, you read rockers [complaining about how], 'Oh, rock is dying,' and everything. Yeah, you're killing it. Unless you're down at Best Buy buying your favorite band's new album, don't talk about rock being dead, because you're the one murdering it. Country music is alive and well, rap music is kicking ass. So I don't know what to say."

Kickstarter Campaigns - Why crowdfunding doesn't work most of the time. Episode 7 of War Stories from the Music Front with Michael Brandvold and Loren Weisman.

Episode 7 of War Stories focuses on kickstarter campaigns and many of the mistakes that are made with crowdfunding. When it comes to asking for money, you need to think about exactly what it is going to cost to do what you want. A music business plan even on the most basic level can help you not only achieve the funding you need but help you to avoid underfunding as well. Too many see it as just free money, a viewpoint that will only hurt any kickstarter campaigns you could be involved with. Take the steps to make a plan, stand out rom the others, offer up the incentives for people to give and consider exactly what you are going to need in order to make your project work and you will create much better chances at having your kickstarter campaigns get both funded and completed in tne best way possible.

Marketing Your Music Effectively and In the Most Professional Order. Episode 5 of War Stories from the Music Front with Michael Brandvold and Loren Weisman.

Episode 5 of war stories looks at how bands are marketing and spending as well as in what order. While it is obvious that marketing your music is a crucial and fundamental part of getting the word and the songs out.

Still, when it comes to marketing your music, you have to put together the most professional plan you can, regardless of your budget with a music business plan and music marketing plan that considers what you are putting out, what you have already released and what you are doing next.

Michael talks a little about knowing when to Kill the Puppy and how things from the past can hurt the present when delivered in certain formats.

In the over-saturated music business of today, regardless of your budget, your team or your product, the presentation, promotion and order when you are working on marketing your music has got to be laid out in the most professional order to deliver the best results.

Real Record Labels or Fake Music Labels? Due Diligence & Fact Checking. Episode 4 of War Stories from the Music Front with Michael Brandvold and Loren Weisman.

Episode 4 of war stories asks the questions and shares the war stories of those that thought they were signing with real record labels only to find themselves in worlds of trouble with a fake situation and under contract to pay people for doing next to anything.

Fake music labels are everywhere and in abundance. To find the real record labels if that is the route you are even considering, you have to do your fact checking and due diligence to find out exactly who you are dealing with, what kind of deal they are going to give you and how money will be dealt in to the deal.

When it comes to music industry financing, whether you are looking for managers, agents, real record labels or just the financial support, it is key to avoid becoming a war story by watching out for the music business scams that are out there.

We start this show with a statement as to what happened, why Mitch left, what will Three Sides do to replace Mitch. During the show Mitch did announce he would no longer do KISS Shockers from Mitch's Locker. The topic of the last show is our memories of the albums KISS, Alive!, Lick It Up and Hot In The Shade. We are also joined by fan Scott Lawrence who won or Sensers Treasure Hunt.

Episode 65, March 4, 2014. KISS is not playing the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (as of today, lol). This announcement has sent shivers through the KISS Army and might have actually divided the army. The hate is is more than we can ever remember around KISS. What is with all this hate from the fans towards KISS and towards other fans?
