Episode 633. We were going to take off this week as Mark was on vacation, but KISS announced a partnership with the video game World of Tanks and we realized we had to talk about this, share our feelings.
This appears to be an effort to expose the band to a potentially new audience and gain new fans, but… in doing so are they ignoring their longtime fans and forgetting to keep them also engaged and happy? Are they risking losing some diehard fans who eventually throw their hands up and say… I don’t care any longer.
That could be one of the worst things you do to a supportive fan, make them say I don’t care.
As diehard fans we share what we want to keep us engaged, keep us spending money. Do you agree?
