Paul Stanley, the lead singer and guitarist for the rock group Kiss, suffered minor injuries in a car accident July 4. One Kiss concert was rescheduled as a result of the mishap.
Stanley was en route to his New York City home from a show in Springfield, Mass., when he was hit by another vehicle. Stanley was sleeping in the back of his car when he awoke to the sight of headlights coming toward him. When his car was hit, it skidded for more than 200 feet, knocking over a road light, going over an embankment and ramming into a wall.When it was all over, the singer and his driver were in the front of the car under the dashboard. According to Stanley, the police were amazed anyone got out of the car alive.
"Obviously, my work on this earth is not yet done," Stanley said.
The rock singer suffered minor neck and back injuries and underwent a series of X-rays. One show in New Haven, Conn., was rescheduled for October, but otherwise Stanley was back with the rest of Kiss for the ongoing tour.
