Mini Kiss vs. Tiny Kiss: The Biggest Little Battle Ever
When two rival bands of dwarves fight, nobody wins. Well, I guess unless you happen to witness it in person. In that case I bet it'd be hilarious.
Anyway. The 4'4" lead singer of the KISS tribute band Mini Kiss, Joey Fatale, is denying reports that he tried to sneak past security at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas to confront 4' "Little" Tim Loomis of Tiny Kiss for ripping off his idea for a group. It's not revealed how Fatale attempted to get past security, but it's assumed he either crawled under a snack cart, hid beneath a blanket in a baby carriage, or stuffed himself in somebody's guitar case like they do in the movies.
While Little Loomis claims he had Fatale thrown out of the hotel, Fatale insists that he left on his own. The two men used to be friends (Little was the original drummer for Mini before starting Tiny), so it's a shame like a little tiny thing like this would come between them. I'm a teensy bit upset. Granted it's a small world, but a little competition never hurt anyone. Hopefully they grow from this. Because life is short.

I think that it doesn't matter how many people try to act like KISS there is no one in the world that is even gonna come a little close as being as great as the real KISS I think that this stuff is stupid that's going on between mini and tiny learn from the best the greatest band in the world KISS no one else is ever gonna be as great as Paul, Gene, Ace and Peter so if you want the best we need the real Kiss to start performing again Gene needs to stop designing jeans and stop with the INDY stuff and start Rocking out again

I've had the pleasure of meeting both of these groups, and while they're all fine people, they're just not the same.
Mini KISS is a lot of fun on stage, but Tiny KISS has Li'l Tim as their new Peter Criss and Wee Matt rocking out Gene Simmons, and are definitely the wildest group of little people I've had the pleasure to know.
I love 'em all, but in the Battle of the Little Tribute Bands , Tiny KISS has my vote!

Oh, poor babies - so some other group ripped off your idea of ripping off some other group. Karma's a bitch, then you die, then they bury you in a shoebox like the family cat.

I support Minikiss. I've seen them live and I've met them and they are the nicest people ever. I think its stupid that just because you get replaced in a group you have to start another group to get back at them to make yourself feel like your special. I'm curious to see where this goes, and in the end I know Mini-Kiss will be the adult and not let this little drama bother them =)
