Paul writing a book on personal growth is akin to bill cosby penning an etiquette how-to. No thanks.

Cool cover!

battra · Post by **battra** » Thu Dec 06, 2018 11:22 am

that is a cool ass cover.

I won't read the book, but I will enjoy that snap.

Prominently pimping out the Pumas, I see...

I like the cover!

not bad, but I just don't dig the gold sparkle Iceman swyy

Cool cover for a probably garbage book.

Paul looks like a Stepford Paul there. Like he's a mannequin.

That gold sparkle PS-10, however, is badass.

Much better than the last one.

Can someone clean up the Q-Tips?

Looking forward to it. Any Kiss member book is worth a read IMO, even if only for discussion's sake.

Nice catch. BTW, those who tell you that you can’t clean up Q-Tips are inevitably the ones who failed. I think that’s in chapters 3, 4, and 8.

You clean up the Q-Tips while listening to Emerson, Lake, and Palmer, not me

Paul one of the healthiest rockers ever:
Paul shows you how to do shots at the bar, how to enjoy Red Wine.

Why mention Bourdain (tragic) and Batali (accused of sexual misconduct) in a blurb to promote his book? Who the heck is in charge of these promo blurbs?

I get the book was written in a different time and that's fine, but its weird to promote it this way. Leave that stuff for the reader to come across in the book on their own.

My favorite, Paul shows you how to rock and roll all night and party everyday looking like you do. If you are totally ugly and unattractive Paul's got you covered. LOL!!!

Imagine this wall mural in your exercise room, this judgemental Starchild avatar looking down on your workout.

Excellent Cover - can't wait to read the book!

Avidfan · Post by **Avidfan** » Thu Dec 06, 2018 1:50 pm

Yet another 'odd' design choice in my opinion.
I like that cover a lot, but why the gold Iceman?
I like it a lot also, but why choose a brand new one vs the classic cracked mirror from the 70s or at least the new purple one?
Seems weird to me, oh well

Because the human brain has a predilection for all things golden or shiny, I'd wager...

Because that’s the version he is SELLING on tour.

Although naming the album “Monster” didn’t really help book sales, did it?

soeuropean · Post by **soeuropean** » Thu Dec 06, 2018 2:23 pm

It’s not a well composed shot. Paul’s in black against a largely black background. Black on black disappears. He should have been wearing another color.

Diss · Post by **Diss** » Thu Dec 06, 2018 2:42 pm

"This is the book for fans who love living large, but also want to kick ass at everyday life. From doing shots at the bar to enjoying a glass of red on the patio, Paul shows you how you can rock 'n' roll all night and party every day — without missing a beat or looking like you do."

Gross.

Ahhhhhhhhh

Same reason Les Paul used a custom on his book and not his Les Paul Recording Model.

Shots are a stupid idea at the best of times. How he is planning to advise people in how to drink them is beyond me

Eddie Van Hazel · Post by **Eddie Van Hazel** » Thu Dec 06, 2018 4:17 pm

Love that picture of Les Paul. Saw him play back in 2006 in NJ.

That gold Iceman makes me want to drink some Canada Dry ginger ale.
Hope he does a book signing in NJ. The book cover is cool.

Kissologist · Post by **Kissologist** » Thu Dec 06, 2018 4:30 pm

VERY cool backdrop for that pic, but I really don't like that Paul's stylist insists in making him look like Cher

Also, I will pass in this book. Not very interested to learn what kind of Starbucks coffee he likes.

Where's Drago? · Post by **Where's Drago?** » Thu Dec 06, 2018 4:53 pm

Aside from the photoshopped or overly made-up face (ironically) that is one terrific cover for a book. Love it.

mybliesad · Post by **mybliesad** » Thu Dec 06, 2018 4:54 pm

I don't know if I'll buy it or not. I'm not interested in reading about new Kiss with Tommy and Eric and he already covered old Kiss. I can't see what else he'd put in it.

Tommyr · Post by **Tommyr** » Thu Dec 06, 2018 5:24 pm

I'll pass on this one. Sounds boring as shit.

KrazySwede · Post by **KrazySwede** » Thu Dec 06, 2018 5:44 pm

I don't think we accomplish much by telling people, 'If I were you, I would do…' Because when you do that, first of all, well, you're not me — you've never lived a moment in my shoes — so [it's] much more important that you figure out for yourself. But I think we can all learn something from what other people do. So what I've tried to do in the book is express my point of view and how I got from point A all the way to point Z."

I agree

I will give it a go I always do, cover looks OK.
