Paul Stanley: 'Bands Are Failing Fans' - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Kiss guitarist Paul Stanley has accused modern day rock bands of failing to provide their fans with value for money at concerts. The frontman has hit out at the "useless and pathetic" bands who charge fans high prices for concert tickets, but fail to perform a decent gig.

He says, "Good economy or no economy, we have no intentions of stopping. We gave up doing this for money a long time ago, we love it, but we still get paid. Rock and roll is in a pathetic state. Bands think they can get up on stage and strum their guitars and then download it - it's useless and pathetic."

"We're sick and tired of seeing bands getting up on stage and not giving value for your buck."
