Morning, k. I remember staying up to watch that show with KISS, and taped it on a little handheld cassette deck [8\|] Here's the whole thing, I think: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jzve-Tmd70 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvFNs3_uaUg Gene and Paul were NOT happy with Ace and Peter lol.

Morning, Level I remember watching their movie, their records were the first I ever owned (along with REO Speedwagon), and dressing up like them for Halloween. [:D] Looking at the Halloween pics is a little embarrassing now, but hey, I know I was happy about it then. lol Thank you for the links. k

I spent many an evening watching Tom do his late night magic. He always asked the questions that everyone else shied away from and got some amazing answers. Watching his interviews was some of the best television I have ever seen. RIP Tom. You will be missed.

Wow how sad! I love Tom and his colortini's.....Truly entertaining, truly delightful, and class all the way. I wonder if Ollie (sheepdog) is still around. Edited to add: Thanks for the YouTube link, Level. It was nice to be reminded of how brilliant he was. And that laugh! I miss that laugh...

I miss his laugh too, it almost always made me smile.

KISS was my favorite band, growing up. I remember staying home to watch this interview (even though I felt, at this time, as though KISS had "sold out" to Disco). Later on, I got to meet all four of them (at different times) and they pretty much knew that the band was dead, when they did this interview. The one part I remembered (before viewing this) was that Gene corrected Ace, when he mentioned being "high". Gene quickly said: "You mean 'drunk', of course". It was this show that "turned me on" to Tom Snyder. He was great at what he did. Peace and comfort, Michael

That episode was the first time I remember seeing Snyder, too. Though it was easy to poke fun at him (ala Dan Akroyd), I always got a kick out of watching him.**

Termyn8or -> RE: Tom Snyder (7/31/2007 5:03:21 PM)
I used to watch Snyder all the time. I have always been a night owl, and around here they stuck him in either the midnight or one AM slot. I liked the non-entertaining style, more intellectual discussions. Perhaps you can help me out here. If I am not mistaken, at one time he went to prison to interview Charles Manson. This was a very long time ago, and I did record it, ON BETA ! I really do think it was him that did that. The thing about this interview is that he engaged Manson in a pretty coherent conversation, and Manson made some good points. Points about society and psychology that I did not expect. Now was that Tom Snyder or that other guy ? Not Jim Lehrer, damn, I just can't think of his name right now. I would really like to have a recording of that interview. Manson is intelligent, but of course fucked in the head. But through this interview you see how he became the leader of his little group. In the interview he didn't really get on the defensive so much. I thought it very interesting. T

It was Snyder; here's part 1 (no part 2 shows up, but may in the future, don't know what the deal is there): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZpTDVYd_K9s

Dammit. I was going to click on the link but no. I am going to make a concerted effort to find a way to save youtube content. Did you watch it ? Part one is probably better anyway. Toward the end Manson started showing his dementia. T

DrkJourney -> RE: Tom Snyder (7/31/2007 5:36:33 PM)
I'm still a total KISS fan, I look at Gene Simmon's family jewels and it's fun to see Gene in that element....looking at that interview I suprised Gene and Paul didn't come totally unglued...lol I'm gonna miss that laugh of Tom's

domiguy -> RE: Tom Snyder (7/31/2007 5:43:15 PM)
I used to watch Tom all of the time.....I'm truly sorry that he died....But I gotta admit he did have somewhat of a greezy, pervy thang going on. Probably just one of the reasons I watched. You will be missed.

I did watch part 1 just now, too. Snyder was fascinated by Manson, you can tell.

They made them sign contracts, handing over rights to their characters, which is why you have Eric Singer and Tommy Thayer wearing their costumes/makeup, now [>:]

DrkJourney -> RE: Tom Snyder (7/31/2007 6:19:08 PM)
hmmm...that part I didn't know....doesn't seem really fair, no. I was wondering why they didn't create their own, like the late Eric Carr did when he was the fox...and yes he was...wink wink
