Gene Simmons Will Hand Deliver ” The Vault” To You For $50,000
Gene Simmons‘s long-promised box set of previously unreleased solo material, which has apparently had several different working titles over the years — including “Monster” (later used by KISS for the band’s most recent studio album), “Alter Ego” and “100” — has finally been made available.
Titled “The Vault”, the collection of one hundred and fifty “never-released-before songs written and performed by Simmons,” which features “notable rock ‘n’ roll artists, including member of KISS past and present,” is being sold exclusively online.
Fans who order “The Vault” have the option to have the box set delivered to them personally by Simmons in one of three ways.
* $2,000 will get you an invite to one of twenty-one “Vault Experience” events across the world, where you will pick up a copy the personalized and autographed box set — packaged in a massive 12″ x 12″ x 6″ leather-bound commemorative book featuring dozens of never-seen-before images of Simmons over his fifty-year career — and take part in a “songs-and-stories” playback and question-and-answer session. In addition, you will be granted one-on-one photo, autograph and video time with Simmons.
* $25,000 will get you an invite to one of eleven “Producer Experience” events, which include all the “Vault Exerience” items above plus “an intimate hour in a recording studio with Gene listening to tracks from ‘The Vault’” and an executive producer’s credit on the set itself.
* Fans who spend $50,000 will have Simmons deliver all the above-mentioned items right to their homes, where they and up to twenty-five of their friends can spend two hours with the KISS legend.
Among the songs expected to be featured on “The Vault” are Simmons‘s “Love Gun”-era demos featuring Eddie and Alex Van Halen.
Earlier this year, Simmons stated about the box: “‘The Vault’ is one-hundred-and-fifty-plus never-before-released songs I’ve written, going all the way back to when I was fourteen years old, to some of the songs that became KISS classics… along with an exclusive Gene Simmons action figure, an ‘In Gene We Trust’ medallion, a book packed with photos from my personal archives and a very special surprise item from me to you. You’re not going to believe the things we found.”
