some of her music for you. Did you end up hearing her sing and was it good? cheers JOHN S

Answer: Hi John. Unfortunately no. She did hum a little bit of one of her songs as we were sitting around the table, so I could tell she's got a beautiful voice. I'm sure if she decides to go that route, with her dad's help she'll have a bright future.

And I do want to make a quick comment about Sophie and Nick. They were both wonderful kids. You could imagine how uncomfortable I was in that huge house, sitting around that big table with Gene next to me, and 3 cameras on us. But both kids went out of their way to make me feel at ease...talking to me, asking questions, etc... they were both great. Thanks Nick & Sophie! (just don't make fun of our age anymore Mr Nick!)

Question from Cathy in Melbourne
Hello Bob,
Do you think Gene enjoyed the day spent with you, or do you feel he did it out of pure duty and for publicity. Also curious why you didn't spend the day just following Gene around to get more of an incite into his day. I think it would be interesting to spend one day in his life.

Answer: Hi Cathy, thanks for your great question. To be completely honest, I think it was probably a 90/10 split, in favor of it being great TV. That's not to say he didn't have a good time doing all that stuff...he even said as much on his website. But in the TV game, we all know the ultimate goal is ratings. So anything you see is done with that in mind!

In terms of doing the things we did versus spending a day in his normal life, that's actually something the production company came up with. Here's how it worked. When I won the contest, I was asked to come up with a list of activities I'd like to do with Gene. They told me basically the sky was the limit, and that I should dream BIG and list anything and everything that came to mind. SO as you could imagine, I had some pretty lofty ideas on there, up to and including an impromptu jam session with KISS at Dodger's Stadium, a tour of his record label and even a demo recording session. However, due to time constraints, budget issues and timetables, most of my stuff just wasn't feasible, so the Producers did a great job of coming up with the alternate activities you saw. I had little or no say in the final outcome of what we did.

Question from Michelle in New Zealand (StarChildsLoverNZ)
Hey Bob would Gene ever consider coming out to New Zealand again. I would sure like to meet him

Answer: Hi there Michelle. You know, I'm not really sure. You should email him via his website and ask...I know he reads all his own mail! But I'll tell you what, next time there's a convention or something down there let ME know, 'cause I'd LOVE to visit and meet you guys!

Question from Troy in Adelaide
Hi Bob, have you heard from Gene since the show?
Answer: Thanks for your question Troy. Unfortunately I haven't. I do communicate every so often with several people in his camp... like his personal assistant and his webmaster. They're both very nice and gracious people. However, now that "Friends With Painted Faces" is ready to demo, I'll be establishing contact with him in the near future to see what I can do about making it 'official'.

Stay tuned, and be sure to visit my website for updates on this! (www.bobbrunson.com)

Question from roadrat15 from Rockhampton , Queensland
My question to Bob is this: Were you ever put down or abused by people who couldn't understand your Kiss fixation?

Answer : Hi Roadrat. The answer is YES! Almost every damn day. I wish I had a dollar every time I heard 'KISS SUCKS'! I grew up in a very conservative town outside of Kansas City, and at the time, artists like Duran Duran, Madonna and Prince were all the rage. So as you could imagine, I caught an awful lot of heat for being a KISS Fanatic, especially from all the Country music people! But, it was ok...because at the end of the day, I could go in my room, close the door, and crank up just the right KISS song to get my spirits back up. (usually Shout It Out Loud, Lick it Up Flaming Youth, I, War Machine, and a hundred others)

But you know what? They were the short-sighted ones. Here we are, almost 30 years later, and where are those groups? Playing county fairs and bars...and KISS is still selling out arenas. So guess who got the last laugh?

Bottom line...NEVER let it bother you when people mock you for what you like...music, clothes, cars, nothing! Music is a personal choice, and what appeals to one person may not appeal to someone else. Just like paintings, or fine food/wine. If we all liked the same thing, this world would be a boring place! I'm sorry it took me nearly 30 years to learn that.

So next time someone gives you grief about being a KISS fan, or for ANYTHING, you tell them Bob in America said to "KISS OFF, grow up, and get a life!"

Question from GeorgeXiro Sydney
Hi Bob, did Gene really just walk off at the end, or did he come back after the cameras stopped and say goodbye like i would of expected him to do ?

Answer: Great question George. I wish I could say otherwise, but when the door closed and the cameras stopped rolling, I never saw him again. And it's unfortunate too because I ended up waiting on that stoop for over 30 minutes (in the cold) for a ride back home.

BUT, as I said with Linda's question above, I got to spend a day with the God of Thunder, ending with a great dinner at his Beverly Hills Mansion with his kids and Ms. Shannon Tweed. And you know what... IT DID NOT SUCK!

THE END!... or is it?
