It's officially\xa0KISSMAS in July! Hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season of the Hottest Band in the Land! We thought we'd kick things off in a big way!\n\n\nKonversation with John Harte\n\xa0\n\nFormer\xa0KISS\xa0security director\xa0"Big" John Harte\xa0joins Aaron and Chris this week to discuss his career working for the Hottest Band in the World. In this hour-plus conversation, John reflects on a wild time as\xa0KISS\xa0rose to prominence during his initial years working for the band. During these years (1975-1976), John saw the ascension of this New York band to the highest of highs. He also was there to see them drop to their lowest of lows by the early 1980's. Subjects covered in this in-depth chat include the\xa0Paul Lynde Halloween Special\xa0from 1976, a death threat on one of the band members, the recording of the\xa01978 solo albums, the strange period that produced the sharp left turns stylistically with\xa0Dynasty, Unmasked, and\xa0Music from the Elder\xa0as well as the\xa0Creatures of the Night\xa0tour. There are numerous inside stories in this episode; many of which have not been heard before.\n\nGrab yourself a shot of cold gin and egg nog and sit back and listen to\xa0"Big" John Harte\xa0giving Aaron and Chris a guided tour through rock and roll\xa0KISStory.\n\nFeatured Artist:\nScreaming Eagles\n\n\n\nOfficial Website\n\nBuy Music!\nKISSVisit Our Sponsor!\n\nHK Collecitbles, Inc.\xa0(Specializing in hard to find music and movies as well as authenticated/graded entertainment and historical collectibles.)\n\nHK Collectibles , Inc. on\xa0Ebay\n\nContact Us!\n\nRate, Review, and Subscribe in\xa0iTunes\n\nJoin the\xa0Facebook\xa0Fan Page\n\nFollow on\xa0Twitter\n\nFollow on\xa0Instagram\n\nE-mail Us\n\nSubscribe to our\xa0Youtube\xa0channel!\n\nCall us on the\xa0Hotline!
