I asked for a birthday kiss from Glenn and he kissed me on the cheek. I don't think Glenn is as approachable or maybe it's just me because I've had a "crush" on him since 1980 [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by HOT ROCKIN' METAL GODDESS from Thursday, July 16, 2009 8:45:10 PM)

I think it's all in how you grow up. I'm from Michigan and we just don't do that around here that much. I wish we did, maybe then I'd have had the courage to GO FOR IT!! And not just with KK, but with Glenn too

I notice people from up north are more comfortable with kissing each other on the cheek. I guess southerners are kind of reserved. Here when two people of the opposite sex meet, the man is supposed to wait for her to stick her hand out first because it's not that uncommon to see a woman who doesn't shake hands with men. It's fine to hug relatives, but kissing is seen as a romantic gesture. I have never kissed any of my family, male or female (except my husband). I was actually a little confused last year in Vegas because I'd really never heard of a custom of kissing someone on their birthday.
I already have people asking me what I was doing wtih Judas Priest at a hotel at 2AM....can't exactly mention kissing

Both my parents are from Quebec and it's tradition to say hello and goodby by giving a peck on each cheek. I've never had a problem giving pecks as a greeting or a farewell maybe that's why when KK gave me a peck goodbye it didn't faze me at all until later and then I was like "wow, KK kissed me"! He did it last year too during the Meet and Greets. I went to give him a hug and he just pulled me towards him and kissed me. I just think it's very natural for him and he doesn't think twice about it.

Most europeans do. I think being American, the first time I went to Greece I was a bit shocked by how much I was being grabbed and kissed all the time, but then I just got over it and it's all fine and dandy!
Occupation Hazard indeed Paper! Oh what a tuff life! LOL

Great pics Laurie! Yes KK was more then gracious that night we kept him up past 2am. I think he could have gone all night the way he kept talking and yes, I believe kissing comes very natural to him . He didn't think twice about giving me a peck when I said goodnight. It was like he does it all the time or something.....
