Gene Simmons has taken to Twitter to offer an explanation for a YouTube video that appears to show him peeing on stage right in the middle of a Kiss concert.
The incident took place during the band’s Wednesday night show in Denver, Colorado. At the 3:42 mark of the video below, a stream of liquid streamed from Simmons' codpiece during an audience sing-along.
Simmons insists that’s not what happened in his case. He claims that the previous song, ‘I Love it Loud,’ was when he did his famous blood-spitting trick. So in an effort to clean up for the rest of the show, Simmons says he poured water down the front of his outfit to get rid of the sticky mess, which consists of eggs, yogurt, cottage cheese and food coloring.
Simmons tweeted that he finds the whole thing “hilarious” and says he’s “gotta try this in a show.” We'll be watching for it when KISS and Def Leppard hit the stage at the FMBA on August 16th!
Meanwhile, take a look at the video and let us know what you think.
