The idea is to have KISS fans everywhere write down and email, in a few lines, what KISS has meant to them over the years. Brunson will use this input to compose and record a tribute song for the band. “This was one of several ideas I’d mentioned to Gene during the taping of Family Jewels, and something I feel is extremely appropriate for a band that has meant so much to its fans for such a long time now, including me!” said Brunson.
In addition, Brunson is actively seeking/soliciting several well-known Hollywood producers to help with the arrangement and production of the song. “Given where KISS is in its career, as well as Gene’s promotional savvy, I want to really maximize the visibility and credibility of the project, positioning it for inclusion in Family Jewels Season 2, and/or Gene's forthcoming Box Set/Greatest Hits!" said Brunson.
Brunson hopes to have this project in full swing before the holiday season, and to be in the studio by first quarter 2007. Bob has just launched his own website, which is also serving as home base for this promotion. For more information go to www.bobbrunson.com
“To my knowledge this has never been done. What better way to celebrate three decades of fans by embracing and utilizing their accolades. It’s really a win-win situation,” said Brunson.
