This week on the Decibel Geek Podcast Aaron & Chris are joined by author Chris Epting ('All I Need to Know I Learned from KISS: Life Lessons from the Hottest Band in the Land') for a discussion of KISS geography.



Over 25 different locations important to KISS' (and our) life are discussed in this episode including rehearsal spaces, ampitheatres, baseball stadiums, high schools, recording studios, television studios, amusement parks and more.

Also, in the show post on the official Decibel Geek website are the actual addresses of these locations as well as many then-and-now photos.

He has contributed articles for such publications as the Los Angeles Times, Westways and Travel + Lesiure magazine, and writes a weekly newspaper column for the Huntington Beach Independent. In addition, Chris writes for AOL Music and is a frequent talk show guest, appearing on shows including National Public Radio, the E! Channel and Access Hollywood.

Enjoyed this a lot.
I have been to the loft.

Damn WizKid, u got me all nostalgic!

I gotta go to the loft every time I visit NYC (as my shirt would imply, Whitesnake used to rehearse there too).

Great picture

Who owns the loft? Is it run as a KISS touristy thing?

One side of the loft is a comic book store and the actual room Kiss rehearsed in is now some sorta business.

Thanks guys! Was a fun to put together!
