I just wanted to say thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for your continued loyalty and support of
both KISS and the KISS Coffeehouse! Without you, there would absolutely be no KISS Coffeehouse! Over the past 5 years, thousands and thousands of "soldiers" from the KISS Army have visited/supported
us, literally, from coast to coast, as demonstrated by 2006's "Grand Opening" and, more recently, 2011's "5 Year Anniversary Party" with hundreds of you (over 500, in fact) traveling from over 30 states
and various countries to visit Myrtle Beach to celebrate with Eric and Tommy and to be a part of KISSTORY!As a matter of fact, over the last 5 years, members of the KISS Army have made their way to Myrtle
Beach from Canada, the United Kingdom, Japan, and Australia, just to name a few. And because of you, we've been recognized as the "Best of the Best" -
the "Best Coffee Shop" in Myrtle Beach for the last 3 consecutive years - and have been featured in various national publications such as USA Today, Billboard Magazine and, most recently,
Rolling Stone Magazine.
I'd also like to thank KISS! I'd like to personally thank Paul and Gene for both their grand opening support/guest appearance and, generally speaking,
their overall continued support of the KISS Coffeehouse "brand", as well as their ongoing input/feedback relative to menu, new product
development and, of course, marketing/merchandising. I'd also like to thank Eric and Tommy for their continued support of our annual anniversary parties, as both have made multiple guest appearances
at the coffeehouse. I'd also like to thank Bill Randolph, KISS' Attorney, for giving me this opportunity, and for his continued support/guidance. I'd also like to thank Dell Furano, President of Live Nation,
and Doc McGhee, KISS' Manager, for their continued support of the KISS Coffeehouse. And last, but certainly not least, I'd also like to thank Keith Leroux of KISS Online.
Although I am the "owner" of the KISS Coffeehouse, it is not mine, but yours, the fans', the KISS Army's! The KISS Army spans decades and decades of the most dedicated, loyal fans, and is
multi-generational, being passed down from generation to generation. Without you, there would be no KISS, and certainly no KISS Coffeehouse! Because of you, KISS is as popular and is as relevant today
as they've EVER been! And because of you, both KISS and the KISS Army are bigger, better and stronger than EVER!!!
Obviously, without KISS, there would certainly be no KISS Coffeehouse. But again, even more
importantly, without the KISS Army, we could not have ever achieved all that we have accomplished over the last 5 years. The KISS Army is THE reason that we are in business, and THE reason that we
are able to stay in business, especially in these tough, very challenging economic times. Thanks again KISS Army for your continued loyalty and support over the last 5 years, and here's to the next 5
years, as well as many more thereafter! Because of you, I remain very optimistic and very excited about our future. And because of you, our future is very bright and very promising. I'm looking
forward to seeing you ALL in Myrtle Beach this Summer!
In closing, thanks so much for allowing me to be a part, even if just a very small part, of your overall
KISS experience. And always remember, the KISS Coffeehouse is yours, the KISS Army's! It always has been and it always will be! I truly hope you enjoy "your" KISS Coffeehouse in 2012 and for many,
many more years to come!
Thanks again!
Yours in KISS,
