KISS Alive Forever - The Complete Touring History
Een fragment:
While still a trio, the band had begun to discuss new names. If one is to believe the apocryphal stories, supposedly, while driving down Queens Blvd., Peter mentioned in passing that a former band of his had been named Lips; Paul then quipped that these three should name themselves Kiss. The joke fell flat, but the suggestion held more and more appeal as they considered it.
Lew Linet, however, recalls a different version of the story, one in which Ace was already in the band. "We were in the loft on 23rd St. We all sat around and decided that we needed a new name. I remember where I was sitting exactly. We were sitting around talking, and we came up with all kinds of names and one of them came up with the name Kisses or Kiss, and it went around the room and everyone said, 'Yeah, that's a great name.'"
KISS. The name stuck.
Las ik toch bijna: The name sucks.
