[@morghan_with_an_h]

A friend of mine had a seizure during Slipknot a few years ago. He fell over and cracked his head on the rail. He refused to go get help and finished the show bleeding. I worked for a popular radio station then and had backstage passes. my friend worried he'd miss it all going to get stitched up. We met Corey and he couldn't have been nicer. he told my friend to go get cleaned up and Corey waited for him and chatted and took pics with him! Best celebrity encounter I've ever had.

Gene Simmons is a proud and shameless sell-out that wears the fact he'll put the KISS logo on anything that will make him money as a badge of honor so I don't think anyone expects him to be anything other than a raging egomaniac that makes everyone present want to fight him. Prince was allegedly the same way. Massively talented but also such a narcissist nobody would call interacting with him a pleasant experience.
