Gene Simmons (KISS) Tribute to the Military
This video of Gene Simmons tribute to the military is awe inspiring. The aging rocker still has plenty of vitality left to help the servicemen and women rock out while overseas. The Kiss front man rev’s up the troops with rocking renditions of military classics. No one can claim that Simmons’ is unpatriotic after his heart felt devotion to the military shown in this clip. Gene proves that he can perform for the Kiss army and the real one as well.
God bless America.
