Lemmy on KISS: “Jesus, they’re ugly…”
Put the makeup back on!
In a recent interview to Vice, Lemmy talked about Motorhead’s 1981 tour with Ozzy (during the Blizzard of Ozz, one of the most incredible gigs I’ve ever seen, bar none) and KISS. Kilmister recalled the time he saw KISS for the first time with their makeup off.
You are the most low-maintenance band, and then they needed their fucking makeup artist.
I know. Remember when they took the makeup off?Yeah. That was awkward for everybody.
Very awkward. Because you found out, “Jesus, they’re ugly.”They are not pretty men.
Except for Paul Stanley. He was still cute. But the other three?It’s like waking up next to a chick after you were blackout drunk and you’re like, “Oh shit.”
[laughs] Fucking hell, hiding in the bathroom till she leaves.I like to play asleep.
It’s like the fox-trap syndrome. You’d rather gnaw your arm off than wake her up.
