The Academy Is… Touring With Kiss??? by Helen Bach

What the heck match up is this??

Sexy William Becket and The Academy Is (who I have seen about a million times who are wonderful and poppy and get the crowd moving and refreshingly upbeat)

and

Kiss.

Kiss who I love cuz they were bad ass when no one was sure what bad ass was supposed to be. This is one of the most brow furrowing combos ever. But wait.. there could be genius behind it…

Why?

Listen,

“Dad, I reaaaaaaaaaaaally wanna go see The Academy Is, I swear Ill clean my room and blal bla bla”

OK so dad is like no freaking way am I going to the crap until little Susie exclaims..

“DADDY THEY’RE PLAYING WITH KISS!!!”

To which the white sock wearing has been daddy oh who now sports a “kiss the cook” apron while grilling instead of that Members Only jacket and mullet…sneers a rock star grin and throws up his devil horns

BINGO Susie gotta ride!
