GENE SIMMONS Comments On 'Shatner's Raw Nerve' Appearance

September 7, 2009

KISS bassist/vocalist Gene Simmons was recently interviewed for "Shatner's Raw Nerve", the new "edgy and off-beat celebrity interview series" hosted by actor and Emmy award winner William Shatner. Gene says, "[I] must admit I was taken aback and surprised by Shatner's incisive questions and genuine nature. We both had a good time."

A short video clip that was shot during Simmons' visit to Shatner's studio can be viewed below.

Simmons stated in a recent online post, "It's a bit disarming to sit with Captain Kirk [Shatner's character on the late 1960s science fiction television series 'Star Trek'] himself and not be aware of the remarkable iconic brand imagery that is 'Star Trek'. It was a part of my childhood I will never forget. In some ways, the originals, though not as lavishly produced as later re-incarnations, still had what later versions did not, [and that is] Shatner and Nimoy. Quality actors and quality scripts. So much so that to this day I watch reruns and love them still."
