KISS and Michael Monroe last night

Saw KISS last night, I will have a review and pictures by the end of this week.  All I can say to sum it up was that Paul Stanley would not shut the fuck up.  No two songs were played in a row without a Stanley soliloquy sandwiched in between.   Annoying, but the show was still a massive spectacle and fun.  I do wanna say though that I saw a bunch of 'celebs'.  First person was MICHAEL MONROE just right prior to the show.  My friends actually noticed him first walking down the street in Times Square on his way to see MSG for the KISS show.  Obviously I ran after him like an 13 year old Asian school girl and freaked out.  Words can not express my excitement.

Then at the actual venue I saw Mark Wiess having some trouble getting in through the media entrance.  He was asking for Doc McGhee (KISS/Bon Jovi/Motley Crue manager), who I was hoping badly to spot.  No luck.   However, I did see Lenny Kravitz and some dude with a fro sneak by.  After the show I WAS BLESSED BY THE BABY JESUS and saw MICHAEL MONROE  again, and approached him this time like one of those middle aged uber-superfan men that approach guys in bands they met once like they're Best Friends FOREVER, and asked if he liked the KISS show.  Of course he said yes and was polite and angelic and perfect.  He was also with Sami Yaffa who was in Hanoi Rock with Michael for a bit, and also in newer versions of the NY Dolls.    Last but not least I caught a glimpse of the 7 foot tall Jesse Camp.  I hope everyone remembers him.  He was an MTv VJ for two months before getting the boot for being a crack head (or just acting as such), and was in the completely useless band, Jesse Camp and The 8th Street Kidz.  He is great, and did I mention tallllll?
