Rival bands clash over little-person KISS tribute
A Las Vegas incident highlights the MiniKiss- Tiny Kiss tussle over who owns the concept.
By Robert W. Welkos, Times Staff WriterApril 11, 2006
They might be pint-sized performers onstage, but offstage they're in a giant-sized dispute.Joey Fatale, the 4-foot, 4-inch New Yorker who heads the all-dwarf KISS tribute band MiniKiss, is denying published reports that he tried to sneak past security last month at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas to confront a rival band leader, 4-foot "Little" Tim Loomis of Tiny Kiss, for allegedly ripping off his idea for such a group.
Loomis, a former drummer for MiniKiss, was performing with Tiny Kiss, which includes three little people and a 350-pound woman, on St. Patrick's Day at Beacher's Madhouse, a Las Vegas variety show, when the incident occurred.

I think "Teener KISS" would beat 'em all. Or better still: KISSlet.
you very well could be right!!!
what a way to make a livin' ... hilarious
There is no such thing as claiming to own what these fellows do. That would be like patenting the entire human genome. Let the garages in the land bring forth more MiniKisses--Tinier MiniKisses. And let them rock.
Rose. Where do you come up with this stuff?
rory, there is nothing i can add except to tell you i'd give a LOT to go see one or both of these bands
