Kiss's Paul Stanley has said that he may quit the rock outfit at some point, one day, but that it wouldn't mean the end of the band. As you may know, he and Gene Simmons are the only two remaining founding members.
Stanley says: "I really, firmly believe there will come a time when the band will continue without me. Some people can't imagine it without me, but I'm here to tell you, I can. There is somebody out there with the same amount of passion and the same amount of drive. Which is not to say I wouldn't want to have creative control. I think Kiss is more about a point of view, about a respect for fans and about a loyalty and a direction much more than it is the people in the band. We don't follow the same rules as other bands. I can't live within the boundaries people set for me. I believe Kiss is founded on something so solid that it will continue to live on, the way a football team continues. There have been great players, but there will always be other players".
