For $50,000 Gene Simmons Will Come To Your House

Gene Simmons has announced “the Gene Simmons Vault Experience.” The ambitious endeavor will send the Kiss frontman all over the world, hand-delivering his unwieldy, 38-pound, career-spanning box set The Vault to happy fans in the comfort of their homes. The 10-disc set contains over 150 unreleased songs in addition to a leather-bound photo book, a Gene Simmons “non-makeup” action figure, an “In Gene We Trust” oversized medallion, a “very special surprise item,” and more. The whole thing costs just $2,000.

Of course, there’s also the $50,000 “Home Experience” package that involves Simmons himself bringing the damn thing straight to your doorstep. (Note: Some scheduling and travel restrictions may apply.) A more affordable $25,000 package grants you Executive Producer credit on the box set, exclusive studio time with Simmons, and access to unreleased recordings. Watch an informational video for “The Gene Simmons Vault Experience” below, and find out more information here.

I'll come over to your house for $5,000.
I guarantee it will be an experience you'll never forget.
Weddings, bar mitzvahs, funerals, graduations-nothing is off limits.
I'll even do a bris, but I'll have to cut my routine a bit short.

must be pretty bad.

Simmons will sell or license anything for money - like the official KISS coffins.

The difference: Wu-Tang Clan only made one copy of their album. Gene Simmons will only sell one copy of his. Because I got news for ya, kids: ten CDs full of Kiss outtakes and an action figure are not worth $2000.

Though if it meant an ironclad guarantee that he would NOT come to my house, I might consider saving up for it.....

I would only let him scrub my toilet. $50k is too pricey for that.
