sturie Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 "She still thought Gene posted that picture today. When he did not.".....oh yes he did!!!! Just to confirm....Gene DID indeed post this comment and picture on Twitter on June 24th this year. I'm not saying he didn't post the picture previously (if he did, I didn't see it!). Gene's Tweet and the picture of Jimmy/Nick are date-stamped as "7.16am 24 Jun 13" - see his Twitter feed. Looks like Genie pulled out the pic from the archive and re-posted lol....he's such a self-glorifying tart lol, but I love him ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've found the link to the original tweet, and Gene has deleted it. Here's the Facebook post that went out at the same time: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151604849456412&l=529e00cda3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cookie0024 Posted June 25, 2013 Author Share Posted June 25, 2013 I've just found this when digging for the Gene Simmons tweet: November 6, 2012 The young man, Nick Simmons, playing Jimmy Page's guitar (!!!) used on Led Zep II for an as-yet unofficial studio venture. Stay tuned. Source: http://www.whosay.com/genesimmons/photos/244075?wsref=tw Now it's Gene Simmons, so a pinch of salt is required. This must have been around the time of the NYC Celebration Day press conference. The guitar in the photo is the same one that is in the bed in the Esquire Magazine photo. I've attached a high-resolution version of the Esquire shoot (with a previously-unpublished photo) so you can see the guitar. It looks like it's in a home studio too. Very weird.

sturie Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Wow! Loving those latest pics..... PMSL...."Now it's Gene Simmons, so a pinch of salt is required".....so true lol !!!! On a further KISS/Led Zep connection, Ross Halfin posted some time back that Paul Stanley and Jimmy went out for dinner in London (maybe to Nobu?)....If memory serves correct, Ross said something like "the paparazzi went crazy" when they left. Has anyone ever seen any of these pics anywhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone ever seen any of these pics anywhere? Here's that post from Ross' diary: May 15 Had dinner this evening with Paul Stanley and Jimmy Page. We went to Nobu - the paparrazi outside had a field day. Janet Jackson was at the next table eating a bucket of KFC with rock shrimp tempura, which looked like chicken nuggets. She caught Paul's eye who went and said hello and introduced Jimmy to her - they are now doing solos on her new version of Beat It. They all chatted and the best part was she didn't ask how Gene Simmons was or talk about how Gene was bigger than the Beatles. Paul treated us to dinner, and Dragan and Mee Ok looked after us. It was a chilled rock star evening, extremely pleasant. On the way out a girl stopped Jimmy and told him she had a print on her wall by photographer Ross Halfin - 'You can meet him,' said James...

kenog Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Really, James? I had no idea who this guy John Robb is, so when I googled him, it appears he is a journalist. Are you saying that he has just taken the photo, distorted it and put it on his Twitter Account. Does that mean the account of meeting Jimmy there is possibly fake too? I am getting a bit confused with this one. This photo is fake, it's the other photo of Jimmy at the night, cropped and distorted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've talked to the man in it, and he has confirmed Jimmy was there. (http://twitter.com/MrPaulBrewer/status/349308432366575617) I've also attached the fake Instagram photo.

kenog Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Thanks, Cookie. What a saddo this guy must be. The comments he made at the bottom of the photograph now sound like a case of self promotion. From the look of this guy, he is a bit long in the tooth for playing that kind of stunt. Yeah, he faked meeting Jimmy for some reason. I've attached the original photo, which is real.

kenog Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 So, are we to believe that he met JImmy, but a mate edited the photo. What a load of BS.

kenog Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Melanie, Make sure Jimmy does the washing up at the end of it all. If he doesn't, you will make him stay in the spare room. That is just pathetic. Suuuuure creepy Mohawk guy. You met Jimmy, the photo is real; in fact I will ask Jimmy about it when he comes over for dinner tonight.

I am sorry though to hear he is grumpy and misreable today from what Cookie has been told. Don't want to make light of it but I'd be miserable too if I were him. The Stones are playing Hyde Park and Jimmy's at a nerd-fest like Comic-Con? Why on earth would he be there, maybe bringing one of his kids?

aen27 Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Oh no, one of his kids must have dragged him to Comic-Con. Can't blame it on Halfin, since I believe he is out of town... Now please don't kill the messenger, since I did not take this photo, nor did I post it, and it is all over the net, but perhaps James can go back to Whole Foods and buy some chocolate to make him feel better.....: pic.twitter.com/R8m9QGhQI1 Note to Kenog - I have an update to a question you asked me, if you want to PM me. Great picture. I hope he did. I love thought thought of him shopping there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenog Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 Yes, that has been covered on this site in previous years. However, can you expand at all on the "grumpiness" aspect - were people going up to him to talk and getting a less than friendly response? He must get browned off at times.

Yeah, people talked to him and he brushed them off. Which, to be fair, he is totally allowed to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
