He'll rock 'n' roll all night
Gene Simmons, co-founded KISS more than 35 years ago, will be the grand marshal of the Honda Indy Toronto this weekend..
Simmons has been the mastermind behind many modern advancements in merchandising/licensing, including some of the larger licensing/merchandise deals for KISS (more than 2,500 licenses currently in effect around the globe), production of television shows and a series of KISS and Simmons-themed comic books sold around the world.
"Gene Simmons is one of the most recognizable figures and groundbreaking businessmen in the world and we are pleased to have him be a big part of the 2009 Honda Indy Toronto," said Kevin Savoree, president of Andretti Green Toronto, promoters of the race.
