KISSOnline has issued the following update:
Marc Kancler is a man with a passion. In fact, it is his passion
that is driving him, along with twin brother Kris, to not only own the
world's largest Paul Stanley guitar collection, but to start owning the
largest Paul Stanley art collection as well.
"Paul Stanley is one of the 7 greatest wonders of the world," explained
Marc. "Here you have a man who knew what he wanted out of life and had
the guts and drive to go out and get it - while at the same time never
forgetting where he came from." Marc goes on to say, "Paul has
accomplished so many things in his life and, unbeknownst to him, one of
them was setting the path for my brother, Kris, and I to follow." Kris
says that they spoke with Paul recently and told him it's inevitable
that they will be working with him. He jokingly adds that he told Paul
that he would in fact probably be wearing the shirt Paul had on his
back. "Yeah, he got a kick out of that. He said that we could thank him
for us being able to own the world's largest Paul Stanley collection.
I've truly never met a nicer guy."
Marc (aka Rock Star) and his twin brother Kris recently filmed a
mockumentary video entitled, Rock Star Exposed. It's a long video but
worth watching. According to Marc, they took their favorite parts from
KISS' Exposed video and incorporated them into their own.
"We wanted the chance to show people how infatuated we are with
this man." All kidding aside, Kris says that they really saw this as an
opportunity to show fellow members of the KISS army how much they
admire this man and his work. Indeed, it's this admiration that led
Marc and Kris to begin recording their first CD entitled, Putting the
"F" Back in Rock & Roll. Explains Kris, "People are going to flip
when they find out who we are working with!"
"Yeah, don't think for a second we didn't have KISS in mind when we
came up with this concept," says Marc. Besides working on the CD, the
twins are putting the finishing touches on a book, a reality show about
them is the works, and they have just launched a non-profit venture
called, We Are One.
"It's an effort to give kids in the community the chance to find
themselves musically and to keep them away from the vices that have
personally kept me down and out for so many years," says Kris. "We are
using Paul's career as a template," says Marc. "Drums or drugs, guitars
or gangs? I'd say guitars! After all, I'm Rock Star!"
