@@andrewcross8244 Andy my little boy, YOU are a joke, a troll and a hater. GFY. Of course he paid dearly to have the opportunity of a lifetime to meet KISS and jam with them. At least KISS is raking in the big money while your morbidly obese butt is playing with trading cards and/or video games in your moms house, eating Doritos and mooching off of your family. Don't be such a whiny crybaby. All of the videos on your pissy little channel are you talking sh!t about everything and everybody. Seriously dude, go see a shrink! You have issues!
thats totally awesome bro you played great with the boys I liked how Gene-daddy helped with the tuning too congrats on sharing the stage with the hottest band in the world Kiss Army is proud!
I struggle with the current line up being called KISS but they kick ass just the same and to be lucky enough to or have the balls to play with them deserves its own reward.This is gold.Well done Mr Martin on all fronts.
This coming from a KISS fan who has very little experience with other bands and their meet and greets. Don't worry Luke, other bands do this too! It's all in the name of the holy dollar. Greed baby, greed!
Wooow! Good job, dude! That must have been one hell of an experience, and it's impressing that you remained as calm and controlled on the bass as you did :)
Yves Martin man you are very lucky!you've played with them you've gone at their concert!you have much more luck than me i have done nothing of that above...
VIP nation told us that sometimes they let people sign. I asked them if they ever let people play with them. The answer was NO ! That may explain Gene reaction.
Very nice, Yves! And so cool of KISS to let you play with them... Have you heard of Rock N Roll Fantasy Camp? I got to perform with Paul Stanley at the Playboy Mansion a few years ago, and found out that he was one of the first rock stars to sign on to RRFC... Oh, and Eric wasn't scheduled to appear, but he came with Paul. I had hoped Gene would show up for the show, but he didn't. However, Gene is doing a Camp in Vegas at the end of this month. Also, Bruce Kulick is a regular Fantasy Camp counselor, and about a year or two ago, Peter Criss did one in New York. Oh, and my first time at a Fantasy Camp was in 2010, and Ace Frehley came to our practice rooms and played a song with each of the bands. Additionally, you may or may not be aware that KISS launched the KISS Navy a few years ago, which is an annual cruise with the band, where they give a lot of fans the chance to play with them. Yeah, they make a lot of money from such events, but they really do still give you your money's worth, don't they?
ca m'a tellement fait sourire de voir ca. Bravo Yves! belle job. je ne peux meme pas imaginer comment tu t'es senti de pouvoir jammer avec eux. trop cool :)
Je n'oublierai jamais ce moment là... Ils ont étés plus que généreux une fois qu'ils se sont rendu compte que j'étais un vrai fan et que je savais jouer ! J'ai eu la chance de passer du temps seul avec eux après le set acoustique. Malheureusement, ça, j'ai pas eu le droit de filmer... Ils sont vraiment cool !
Salut. Je suis un chum de Normand Roy. Il vient de m'envoyer ton lien. C'est COOL ! Thrill of a lifetime. J'étais au show avec mon ado. Mon 6ième show de Kiss, et un des meilleurs. Moi, j'avais gagné un Meet and Greet au dernier show de Rush en octobre l'an passé. C'est spécial rencontrer tes idoles. Encore mieux de pouvoir jammer avec eux autres !
What a dream come true! I'd love to sit in on drums with the band sometime. I can't exactly compete with Singer, but I could keep the time and do some fun fills. Don't know if I could do lead vocals on this track, though.
pars4245 I bought a meet & greet package that gave me access to this private acoustic set, an autograph session, a picture with the band in full make-up and first row ticket for the show. The cost for those tickets was $1250 ea.
Swiss Militis Christi LXXII I felt bad, bc I was trying to be sarcastic, but he didn't get it. Yeah, they're fucking gangsters. But people keep paying it.
pars4245 Yes, it's his money, he makes what he wants. Maybe it was important for him to play with his childhood heroes. But I still think 1250 $ is too much. You shouldn't have to pay to see musicians you like. Kiss members have enough money to live 1000 years like kings.
Stanley Bert Eisen (Queens, Nueva York, 20 de enero de 1952), más conocido como Paul Stanley, es un músico, cantante y pintor estadounidense, reconocido por ser la voz principal, guitarra rítmica y fundador junto a Gene Simmons de la banda de rock Kiss. Ha participado en la composición de la mayoría de los éxitos de la banda y, junto a Simmons, ha liderado a la agrupación durante sus cincuenta años de trayectoria. Su personaje representado en Kiss es The Starchild o El Chico Estrella. 72 AÑOS.
pwxproguy I'll say. I'm a Beatle fan and I go to the fest pretty regularly and last year Micky Dolenz was charging $40 per person to pose for a polaroid. FUCK THAT! I was livid when I heard about that. A lot of us saw him leaving afterward and he didn't even look in anyone's direction, had handlers all around him - and...I was just pissed off and turned off.
@@VendettaAustralia You're talking shite there, trying to defend fleecing fans anyway you can. Kiss released 16 of their records before internet speeds were decent enough to bite into record sales, and 2 after. They have had 14 platinum records, 3 multi platinum. They made their money just fine selling records. And that's not even considering someone like Eminem having managed to make 200+ million dollars when all bit one or two of his records were after internet speeds allowed for illegal downloads. The way Gene Simmons acts is out of sheer greed. Also, there's looking for money out side of record sales, by touring, playing festivals, licencing deals for their music, image, ec cetera, all things Kiss done, and then there's taking advantage of socially awkward, autistic level obsessed fans with a bit of money. Which is exactly what Gene Simmons has been doing with his vault, his cruises, selling basses used for one song at one gig for tens of thousands of dollars. It's indefensible. Have a watch of a few of the cruise videos, and see if you can find him going a whole hour (in one chunk) where he's not acting sleezy and shit with women, even those married to men who paid to go on the cruise as well.
@@mr.anonymous5501 No, it's not indefensible, as long as there is a market for it. If some jackass wants to pay ten grand for a "staged used bass", more power to Gene Simmons, and I'm not even a Kiss fan, since they suck big dick. I've never understood the urge people have to meet their favourite artist/band though, but apparently there are people willing to pay good money for a meet and greet, and buy expensive, shitty, memorabila + "VIP tickets".

It’s fun to see artists play with their fans. It’s the highlight of their life that they will always remember
One of the first songs I learned when I first picked up the bass in September 1980. Best marriage I ever had, and after 33 years next week, I'm still kicking!
Damn that was cool. Not how he played, but tha fact that they allowed him to. Well done.
If you think he didn’t pay THOUSANDS you’re crazy. KISS is a joke

thats totally awesome bro
you played great with the boys
I liked how Gene-daddy helped with the tuning too
congrats on sharing the stage with the hottest band in the world

AIR BAND PISS
Living the dream for at least one song.
Okay. I smiled SO hard at this. I'm almost 100% sure that KISS is the nicest band ever! :)
Leave him alone Gene and let him enjoy the experience. Tune your bass some other time. Nice touch though. KISS has always been great to there fans.
That's why he's tuning it, so he can look back on it and enjoy the recording instead of saying I sound awful bc he gave me an untuned bass
Yup. Charge your fans thousands of dollars for a meet and greet and autograph when you're already filthy rich off of them. Soooo nice.
Cool
*their
I can play B.D. but I am sure that I would have totally blown it with Gene standing behind me, haha! Great job!
Gene and Paul are so professional and so kind with their fans...i dont know any other band doing this..
This coming from a KISS fan who has very little experience with other bands and their meet and greets. Don't worry Luke, other bands do this too! It's all in the name of the holy dollar. Greed baby, greed!
That was awesome! Great job, man! You rocked it for fans everywhere!
that's awesome how Gene tunes the bass on the fly!
called tuning by ear have to be born with it
I imagine the same situation for me, and I start to cry, man!. congrats!
MIS IDOLOS DESDE LOS 9 AÑOS. HOY TENGO 52 Y TODAVIA TIEMBLO AL ESCUCHARLOS!!!!
Y yo tambien. Tengo 60 anos
Wooow! Good job, dude! That must have been one hell of an experience, and it's impressing that you remained as calm and controlled on the bass as you did :)
Calm and controlled on the outside only beleive me ! Took me 2 hours to calm down after. You can see on the video (2m38s) my right hand shaking.
Yves Martin
man you are very lucky!you've played with them you've gone at their concert!you have much more luck than me i have done nothing of that above...
That's awesome :) so glad KISS was so good and humble about it.
these guys are so nice to there fans young and old..such class..
i am just a mere 2 months into learning bass ...you killed it brother!! Sush a dream come true man.. thanks for sharing
This is the coolest thing I have ever seen!!! I had chills watching this.. you did awesome
That was impressive Yves! good job on keeping it together and Nailing it!
Dreams can come true. Excellent job!
wow really well done. This was so awesome. I cant even imagine such an experience.
Really cool to see this side of KISS. Guys are so cool!
1:45 Gene: hey look at this picture
1:48 Gene: OK.
Wow, great job on an impromptu performance dude! That took balls :)
Cool, congrats. A lifetime memory... happy for you

Gene didnt want to be upstaged,big ego
@@tomlehr861 not true I’ve met gene and it wasn’t a paid meet and greet and he was very down to earth and awesome to me and my dad
@@stichhavoc88 must be his tv persona
@@tomlehr861 idk anything about that all I can say about gene is that I saw no signs of any ego when we met him
Really enjoyed watching

Very cool...and very nice bass playing.
Wow, EPIC! I'd love to jam with them!!!
That was super cool. That must have felt amazing
Damn he was so lucky. I wish i could play deuce with them
Big KISS for you. You did a great job. Thank you for posting this.
AWESOME!!! THEY SHOULD DO THIS MORE OFTEN...
Dude, you did a great job and looked like you really enjoyed yourself....🤘
I wonder why Paul sang it instead of Eric?!
Paul Stanley wrote Black Diamond.
@@ACEDIAMOND666 But it's always the drummer who sings it, except the intro which is Paul.
cause eric isn’t as good as a singer as peter
Paul can't sing black diamond, his voice has been weak for a few years, Eric is good enough to sing this song
@@razzle2112 Eric just doesn’t have the rasp. But he’s great at singing himself! That’s why his name is Eric SINGER!
Just saw this, that is awesome !!!! Good job man !
All I can say is Great Job... AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think you had Gene worried there for a min lol
ca m'a tellement fait sourire de voir ca. Bravo Yves! belle job. je ne peux meme pas imaginer comment tu t'es senti de pouvoir jammer avec eux. trop cool :)

That guy will never be the same. Dream is Done. Great job man.
Thank you ! What a thrill ! Beleive me !
Dude...how LUCKY ARE YOU!!!!?????
What a moment, man!!
Great bass playing my guy!
I would kill for this opportunity. I shared a stage with Gene once, but man I would love to share one with all 4 of them

that was mighty cool of Gene to step aside and let him play his bass, for a fan for no $$$
Great job! What a trip!
How much money did he give you??
Yves, you rock !! litterally... ;) And this is an amazing dream come true ! Keep rocking, dude
Malik B.Rajan Thank you very much. I will never forget that day !
Sos un bendecido !!! Y Gene es un grande como persona y músico, y usted estuvo de 10.
Mis felicitaciones.
Cesar Segalotti Muchas gracias. Fue una experiencia increíble
@@yvesmartin8424 como se llama el tema que tocaron?
Very cool dude. You we're great! Congrats!
this is amazing

So very cool! Congratulations!
For one song your in the band kiss! I'd say that's something you will never not talk about!
that's fantastic ! how many people can say they jammed with KISS ? brilliant stuff my friend ;-)
Nice work, Yves. Very cool.
It's so strange hearing Paul sing the entire song instead of just the intro.😎
Play bass with Kiss? CONGRATULATION BROOO
Big balls man! And you pulled it off!
It's awesome ! You did an amazing job for sure !
Nice jam session guys!
What a lucky guy!!!
Unbelievable! Awesome!
yes I do it all over world it's a rush
How much did you have to pay them to let you up there ?
pars4245 I bought a meet & greet package that gave me access to this private acoustic set, an autograph session, a picture with the band in full make-up and first row ticket for the show. The cost for those tickets was $1250 ea.
Yves Martin What ? I really hope you're joking. It's Meet and GREED, 1250 $, I can't believe it.
Swiss Militis Christi LXXII I felt bad, bc I was trying to be sarcastic, but he didn't get it. Yeah, they're fucking gangsters. But people keep paying it.
pars4245 Yes, it's his money, he makes what he wants. Maybe it was important for him to play with his childhood heroes. But I still think 1250 $ is too much. You shouldn't have to pay to see musicians you like. Kiss members have enough money to live 1000 years like kings.
+RK Sandlin excellent points! One has to wonder how much $ they need anymore.
it was great!!!!!!
Thank you. I will never forget that day !
Yves, that was awesome brother.
Forever in your soul..Dreams becomin´ true with KISS!
He wasn’t doing the Vocals when needed that why Gene was stepping in.Kiss Alive 73 Foreve
Super mon Yves....Good show!
How dare the camera not pan over when Tommy’s doing his solo ..
Great Job Brother!!!!
Awesome little dude
Awesome man, just awesome!
Amazing man! Cheers
1:10 is Paul quoting megatron?
And Paul sings the song ! Even more awesome ! :D
oh my thats awesome!

Te amo gene !!!! Sueño siempre contigo
génial de pouvoir jouer avec son idole ...................
