KISS rocker Gene Simmons and his wife Shannon Tweed have made a substantial donation to a children's hospital being built in Saskatchewan. More specifically, Saskatoon, where Tweed grew up. The 450 thousand dollars was raised when Simmons sold his customized 1956 Ford F-100 pick-up at the Barrett-Jackson auction in Arizona.
The previous record for an F-100 was 180 thousand, but given the modifications, and the fact it was owned by Simmons, and you can see why the price went so high. I was never a big fan of KISS, or Simmons "reality" show, but I did have the Playboy issue Tweed was in. Both the November 1981 issue, and the Playmate of the Year issue in 1982.
But after this, I've gotta say a huge "Well Done" Gene Simmons and Shannon Tweed. You've shown there is class out there in what's rapidly becoming a wasteland in music.
Justin Beiber: Take notes on this you putz.
'Nuff said.
