You know shit is getting real y’all when someone breaks out the “Stage Duel” card! Hey, don’t leave home without it is what we always say here at TMD. Yes, it’s a twisted clusterfuck of news without a kiss. A rock star feud to end them all has erupted between Dee Snider and Paul Stanley. Snider responded to comments made by the elderly KISS crooner in a recent interview on Chris Jericho’s podcast… going on the record to state that Dee was a “Wannabe” and his band a bunch of “buffoons”. It all started when Snider made it clear he thinks the new version of KISS is a joke and a sham for using an imposter Catman and Space Ace. Here’s Captain Howdy, er… Dee’s classic response:
“Dear Paul, September 9th, 2015
First off, thanks for giving me the attention I—as you noted– so desperately wanted. Now, I’ve always had nothing but respect for your band, and you as a performer, but it really comes as no surprise that the feeling isn’t mutual. For some reason you are oddly threatened by me. This said, your recent comments about my band and I on Chris Jericho’s podcast was a typical diversionary tactic used in an attempt to change the subject, rather than answer the actual accusation or question. It’s the oldest interviewing trick in the book. As far as my “whole band being a bunch of buffoons” goes, that’s a pretty ironic statement coming from you. The argument could easily be made that Kiss is the “king of the buffoons”, so in an odd way you’ve paid Twisted Sister quite a compliment. It takes one to know one.
Lastly, on the subject of me being a “wannabe”? Do you really think so? Well then…any time, any stage. But let’s do this old school –no costumes, no pyro, no bullshit – let’s just get up there and rock. I will bury you, son.
Sincerely, the attention getting, wannabe, lead buffoon of Twisted Sister,
Dee Snider
PS: Did I mention that I’m clean, sober, razor sharp and fully capable of defending myself from any kind of lame attack? Just ask Al Gore.”
