The KISS Kasket made a lot of news when it was unearthed more than 20 years ago, but did you know there is a Houston connection to this band's final fan gear?
Pat Fant, the founding father of 101 KLOL, a Galveston native and UH grad, not only signed on to the legendary Houston rock station but also created the KISS Kasket.
Fant appeared on the KISS Podcast “Three Sides of the Coin” with hosts Michael Brandvold, Tommy Sommers, and Mark Cicchini to discuss how he dug up the idea of the KISS Kasket plus his dealings with singer/bassist Gene Simmons.
You can watch Fant in the “Runaway Radio” documentary, now streaming on TUBI and available on DVD. Also starring Dusty Hill (ZZ Top), Lyle Lovett, Sammy Hagar, Melissa Etheridge, Doug Pinnick and Carmine Appice.
