OBVIOUSLY THIS FOOTAGE IS PROPERTY OF A&E AND I HAVE NO CLAIM ON IT WHATSOEVER

I go to that school right now, I've played on that drumset

[@Kissfan96dr]

A well taken care of instrument lasts a lifetime. In my high school, we had a tuba that was bought in the 1940s when the school first opened. My snare for football games was 1966. Best sounding snare I've ever played. A rimshot with a DC17 stick sounded like a gunshot. It commanded respect to all within earshot. Enjoy every minute of it, Alex!

Me too, i sat in it nude

[@thedon8594]

Gene's a great guy. Loved this show wish it was still on.

[@aus80srockradio94]

Yes I wish there were a few more seasons.

[@RobertSmith-sq1wg]

he isnt

[@ferox965]

"This is the stuff that will save you." Truth. Almost 40 years later it still does.

[@jimhoffmann]

Literally and figuratively....

[@mariafernandamontes9347]

Shannon you're marvellous!

[@ashiba4024]

I am a Canadian and grew up in the same area that Shannon did and I JUST LOVE her down to earth personality. Her and Gene are great parents and wonderful people who have not allowed fame to go to their heads and instead embraced it for the good.

[@robertlee8400]

Despite everything Gene went through & even all the bad stuff he did in his life , he & his family & band mates are really great people . When I was around 6,7, or 8 , I had a chance to go to a KISS concert with my 13 year older cousin but my mom wouldn’t let me go , I think it would of been a blast .

[@robertyancey8611]

THAT WAS VERY KIND OF YOU SHANNON. I LIKE IT WHEN PEOPLE WHO HAVE MORE THAN ENOUGH MONEY SHARE IT WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE LESS FORTUNATE..... THANK YOU FOR YOU'RE GENEROSITY!!!

[@bluespig1]

If you think the Simmons family picked up the tab for this your delusional. It is nothing but shameless self promotion aimed exactly at people like you.

[@danieldoria5262]

Shalom, Gene!

[@AndresLopez-nm3kv]

The teachers eyes in the left, thinking "Hopefully he doesn't say something stupid..." Lmao 🤣

[@mirandavinci4146]

That is a great organization for kids to learn the joy of music and how to have fun.

[@mwazowski5662]

I love you Shannon! You keep your guys in line! And they listen!

[@jondunmore4268]

Yeh, because the script says so.

[@robertbaker5156]

For all the people who put Gene Simmons down, he may make a lot of money but he gives back as well!!!!

[@fibrowarrior6360]

YAY Shannon!! YOU Are a Rock Star in...Your GREAT Down-To-Earth WAYS!! 💯

[@elliottmayer-yeager8087]

2:12. There’s the Angus Young moves! 😃. Always good to see that move. I remember doing that all the time in high school with my Gibson SG. Everyone would say “there goes Elliott. Mr AC/DC.” Great time in my life. Still do Angus’s whole performance to this day as my form of therapy and exercise.

[@tobe1207]

That's actually the Curly from the 3 stooges

[@mikeharvey8057]

Jean I think your shows really cool,Iv been waiting to see all of you again/Mike harvey

[@divarose2017]

She is good for him and keeps him grounded:-)))))

[@teresaserrano6187]

Will family jewels ever make a come back on tv? I really liked it. You guys are hilarious 🤣 but I see the love you guys have for one another. I love it.

[@teresamcalister9994]

We are all a conglomerate of extraneous circumstances (either purposely or not). Congratulations gene and Shannon on nailing it ❤️

[@nanfaircloth]

I cried that's my story. Piano and a teacher

[@Tracer2376]

Gene and Shannon are both very giving people no matter what. He does not want to seem like a big teddy bare if you will but he is.

[@maricelaramos7425]

Me encanta la familia de Gene! Son hermosos juntos! Y me gusta mucho lo qué hacen! 😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️

[@threeleggedman]

2:39 Proof that the young Vinnie Cusano was a timer traveler.

[@rainbowspace994]

And then he came back to 70's and became Disco musician...

[@timtipton5071256]

Shannon is the woman of the hour......she must have loved him to stay, but she made him face his demons and figure out she would be the only one holding his hand on his death-bed....great kids BTW....I wish I was married to Shannon....

[@coltoncooper5433]

Now THAT'S my God of thunder!

[@crazytube5055]

Gene: it really felt good when you could get off on your own music Nicks face: wtf I'm sitting right here

[@marym897]

Love. Good family.

[@OnlineAutoAuctions]

Gener was about to say girls at the end of that clip. But nice work by Shannon. Good job

[@fazmananarju8779]

Gene you are a Lucky man.good lady on your side.

[@stevencoffman34]

The ultimate reality show

[@maricelaramos7425]

AMO ESCUELA DE ROCK Y ÉSTA TAMBIÉN!😍😍😍😘😘😘

[@johnpatterson4272]

If you notice there is an 'engaged' music teacher of the class whom devoutly believes these wonderful young people can achieve their life-goals through music. That man is a pioneer in-earnest. I'm still looking for a follow-up video from GSFJ on Gene's alleged benevolent gift, and the effect it had for these young people.

[@jeffwade9052]

"Gene, aren't you glad I got Fender to donate the guitars for the kids"? They donated them alright, right out of Genes bank account lol. Which is what makes him so cool, his generosity.

[@dd090304]

Nope, they were actually donated by Fender:-)

[@jeffwade9052]

@@dd090304 Oh ok, my bad then. I was going by Gene's reaction when Shannon said that he had them donated and he said "I did"? I took that to mean a gift. He's still a very generous guy though lol. So, kudos to Fender, and thanks for the correction.

[@louisborselio8608]

The last word Gene said before the video ended was "Girls"

[@jondunmore4268]

Oh wow, what a planned spontaneous trip to Fender! What great acting that they had something to do and then didn't have something to do.

[@BreathFreeAndRemainNameless]

It was probably Squier by Fender.

[@hilmerjoseortizgomez7412]

Bravoooo

[@abigailsockeye1586]

All those Fenders went on eBay.

[@archnem]

NICK on the floor , he did that lol.

[@JesseClutch]

Wild mick brown works for fender 3:39 haha

[@dd090304]

haha that's pretty funny. We always tell Del he looks like Rod Stewart:-)

[@JesseClutch]

Haha! I can see that too!

[@etelkabogdan5918]

Fantastico

[@ronchilled]

Nick looks so stoned lmao

[@rjmusicltd]

His son looks like a young chris novoselic from nirvana.

[@gailmarie65]

LOVE IT

[@virgiljohnson9880]

Step Up,,Gene Simmons telling it like it is

[@SuperDenonciateur]

Gene looks so small beside his son.

[@bluespig1]

Gene is a very small minded person. What an embarrassment he has been for the better part of the last 25 years.

[@mooch514]

Gene is 6'2. Nick 6'7

[@writebackacomment]

THE REAL BASS FROM VAN HALEN

[@mrs.columbo1803]

So tucking

[@brianpkeane4173]

Gene Simmons playing a Fender Precision Bass Wow What Happened Gene, No Stipends.?

[@paulmcwilliams1709]

Shannon Tweed is still GORGEOUS and HOT!!!

[@expeditoroquesantos4396]

o filho do Gene Simons lembra o Joe Ramone andando

[@expeditoroquesantos4396]

ea altura também

[@YOUnikoll76]

Подарите пожалуйста бас-гитару Fender!!! Пожалуйста!!! Играю на басе с 1990 года

[@darrenramsey]

Eugene Klein always wear wigs lipsticks and dark sunglasses everyday ahaha Black Black Black Black goodbye unKISS Army haha

[@ronnieriveros6067]

perdon me. but they should have got runmills or new running shoes.. or free membership to join the gym

[@mortishastyles1345]

Shannon looky goody in curls.

[@studio-flash]

Their son is 6ft 8in..wowwwwww!!!@

[@wandamcbride6206]

In Call when

[@AndrewTate2Prison]

Fender can send me another Squire Strat I'll sign away 10 years of my future songwriting royalties for it. (OK those would be $-8.84 so not a good deal for them)

[@phanhthammavongsa7908]

👍👍👍👍👍🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@PluggedHades62]

I really appreciate what gene did for these kids, however he’s a little wrong about the saving part. It may make some of them successful, but being famous can get them drugs easier then getting them on the street

[@metaphoria3]

Party all nite?

[@michaelstephen819]

This is so contrived and fake. It's amazing that you lot on the other side of the pond are taken in by this.

[@christinahowley7667]

Mutilated your song oh my God

[@RobertSmith-sq1wg]

FIRSTLY GS IS NOT A GREAT GUY. SECONDLY THESE SINGERS SOUND BETTER THAN PAUL STANBLEY

[@elliottmayer-yeager8087]

I think you might just be jealous because Gene’s gotten more women than you or me or any other man.

[@RobertSmith-sq1wg]

@@elliottmayer-yeager8087 he pays them, they dont do this for free. I have a particular job in the industry and I know for a fact he pays them

[@jeffwade9052]

So getting women is not a perk of being a rock star? They all have to pay for them, or is that just Gene? I highly doubt he has had to pay for women over the years. He is a rock star for crying out loud. Now tell us something we will actually believe lol.

[@bluhevin2667]

His son in kiss costume face paint like his dad should be a thing since he has his daddys genes
