For some reason or another, rock bands these days think that it is necessary to have their own cruise. There is a classic rock cruise, a Weezer cruise, and now a Kiss cruise.

Friday, the first KISS Kruise launched from Miami to the Bahamas. The unlikely luxury cruise includes several concerts by KISS, both with and without makeup, and a Q&A with fans who packed the cruise ship. Gene Simmons revealed that it takes him the longest to put on his makeup (two hours) and that if he could have cruised with any classic band of the '60s, he'd choose the Electric Prunes.

Oddly enough, most of the member in the audience need prunes now a days to stay regular. Weird how things work out sometimes.

In case you missed the cruise, most likely all of you reading this post, here is a video from the cruise.
