Kiss
& Make-Up
Gene Simmons will forever
conjure up images of the tongue-wagging demon from KISS.
But considering KISS is perhaps the greatest, most accomplished,
and well-known American rock band in the world, he probably
doesnt mind. However, there is much more to Gene than
face paint, and hard rock. He's also an accomplished actor,
author, producer, and entrepreneur. Simmons' new book, Kiss
and Make-Up, is a backstage pass to his years growing
up, as well as the 30-year life span of KISS.
"The book has a lot of fun stuff in it," says Simmons.
"But it's about a lot more than the band. I hope this book
is a good kick in the ass for anyone who reads it. This is about
KISS, but it also shows that I am living proof that the American
Dream is alive and well."
It covers everything from the face paint and pyrotechnics, to
the real life backstage fireworks between band members, not
to mention all the fun he had with groupies I46,000 of them
to be exact).
"You have to be active, and live life. Be alive,"
says Simmons. "There are no time losers, and no excuse
for excuses. No time to sit on the couch and dip chips, because
if you are dipping chips, I will be in the kitchen dipping your
girlfriend."
Simmons is very active in live, and it shows with all of his
many endeavors. Gene is the brains behind Tongue
Magazine, KISS Comics, and was the producer of the
hit film, Detroit Rock City.
FACTOID:
KISS will be performing in Australia with "The KISS Symphony"
which will be in full make-up as well. The show will be available
as a Pay-Per-View and DVD later this year.

Hayseed
Dixie
When listening to AC/ DC, how many times have you thought to
yourself, "I wonder what this song would sound like with
a country twang, and maybe a little banjo?" If you are
like us, that thought never crossed your mind... but the boys
of Hayseed
Dixie decided that is exactly what needed to be done. In
their first album A Hillbilly
Tribute to AC/DC, the band converted
and covered classic rock songs into their own style. Now they've
decided to do it again in their second CD, A
Hillbilly Tribute to Mountain Love.
The last time Hayseed Dixie stopped
by, they performed an original tune that was later deemed to
crappy for morning radio by the FCC. However, you can still
find this classic here at bobandtom.com.

Survey
Says
The great game shows never die, but they do need face lifts
from time to time. This includes the only game that pits families
of five against each other, trying to find the most popular
answers to survey questions, the Family
Feud. Richard
Karn, once Tim Allens sidekick Al
on Home Improvement,
will assume the role as host of the Feud. Not only does he have
the daunting task of filling the shoes of Papa Eat Now,
Louis Anderson, hes also following in the footsteps of
the great Richard Dawson (who never met a contestant he wouldnt
kiss) and Ray Combs (who could barley see over the host podium).
Though hes an accomplished stage, film and television
actor, many are wondering how hell do as a host? Survey
says
just fine.
"I am really loving this job," says Karn about his
work on the Feud. "We shoot shows 11 weekends during the
year, so that means during the week we can follow our other
interest... like poker and golf." Richard enjoys his new
job so much that he's even pitching a second Feud, one that
would involve kids.
Karn is sticking with his new found fondness for the genre with
his upcoming special which highlights the funniest game show
moments of all time. This includes the famous Newlywed
Game answer to the question, "Where's
the strangers place you've ever made whoopie?"
"They used to think that this clip was an urban legend,"
said Karn. "But it's real, and it's histarical." Catch
the worlds funniest game show moments coming soon to FOX,
and check local listings to find out when the Feud airs on a
station near you.
FACTOID
- Richard recently played in a golf outing with Bob Kevoian,
and "sandbagged" the front nine. Now Bob owes Mr.
Karn a little cash.

It's Just One of Those Days
Bobs favorite show is back, and it will be another long
day for Carlos Bernard.
Foxs hit series 24
returns for its second season, and once again Bernard will portray
Tony Almeida
who works on Operation Proteus alongside agent Jack Bauer (Kiefer
Sutherland). He is also the
guy who Bob thought was "the mole" midway through
the season.
"That's okay Bob," said Almeida, "my mom did
too."
This year, 24 has become even more popular with the critics,
as well as the audience. And this season will be kept just a
secretive as last years, to keep leaks from getting out and
spoiling the surprise. "We only get to see the scenes that
we take part in, and we also sometimes shoot three different
endings so that none of us know which one is going to air. It
keeps things exciting."
Though Bernard is no stranger to television having starred in
the long running daytime soap,
The Young & the Restless, his
role on 24
is his first real chance to shine in the prime time spotlight.
Carlos Bernard stars in hit series 24,
every Tuesdays at 9 pm ET-PT/8
pm C on FOX.
