from Metal Mayhem ROC: Your go to source for everything metal. · host Vernomatic Productions

Hello Metal heads. This week's show is a example of "ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE" The collaboration between Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, co-founder of KISS and serial entrepreneur Gene Simmons  and partners Paul Janik Jr., John Janik , began with a chance meeting at Cleveland’s “Wizard World” convention. The long time KISS fans were in attendance with the hope of meeting their rock Idol, who was a featured guest at the convention.  John and Paul struck up a soda-centric conversation with the music legend. Simmons asked for their card, and a week later, Paul received a call from Simmons.  John and Paul explain ,in detail, the chain of events from inception to delivery of the soda. HOW the collaboration  with Gene blossomed from a business venture to a true personal friendship. They relive  stories of traveling with KISS , befriending Paul Stanley, Eric Singer and Tommy Thayer . There are fun antidotes of  hanging out at soundchecks as well  meeting Gene's wife Shannon as guests at their  California home.  “We never dreamed it would be possible to work with someone we have idolized for decades. Gene is the ultimate entrepreneur and a very engaged business partner,” said Paul. “We are honored to have had the opportunity to develop such a rock star-worthy product for soda lovers to enjoy and fans to collect.” “Paul and John have an impeccable work ethic, as well as a prowess in the premium soft drink marketplace,” said Simmons.  This is a great story and exemplifies that anything is possible as long as you take a chance and go for it.
