As you may have noticed a few days ago we were looking for a Gene fan to visit London this week. This was for a PR event being help on behalf of Activision to promote the new version of Guitar Hero featuring Gene doing a voice over. The PR company wanted someone to dress up as Gene and put a signed GH controller up on the wall of the Hard Rock Cafe in London. Kevin Curtis (forum moderator) was the "lucky" volunteer literally at the last minute! Sadly the "Gene" costume was actually an Ace costume but never mind, by all accounts Kev had a blast. The following article was on the Classic Rock website today (picture is also from there), I am currently awaiting some photos to publish here, hopefully tomorrow. Note that for the article Kev never actually said he was "in Dressed To Kill"! BTW, thanks also to Gary & Chris for offering to help with this.

For the first time ever, a gaming guitar has been inducted into the Hard Rock Hall Of Fame. Today the game Guitar Hero: Warriors Of Rock is been officially launched – and it’s narrated by Gene Simmons. The Kiss bassist has signed one of the gaming guitars, which was unveiled by Kiss megafan Kevin Curtis. A member of Dressed To Kill, the world’s longest-running Kiss tribute band, celebrated the guitar’s induction in full Simmons make-up and costume, as pictured below.
