Hello my friends. Thank you for welcoming me to the Carpenters Fans Family and I am very grateful to be here. Now that I'm in a slightly better mood, I can ask some interesting questions (maybe some have been asked here before.)
Any carpenters (licensed contractors and construction workers) amongst us that are Carpenters fans?
Anybody with the last name Carpenter (which is pretty common) who love the group of the like name?
Amongst today's celebrities and music stars, how many are Carpenters fans that you least expect?
Anybody love to listen to Carpenters music while doing home repair, just for kicks?

Oh I thought everyone knew this story it is quite well known but for those who don't know the story or as a reminder I will briefly tell it and Rick can fill in any omitted details or inacuracies as I am going on my faulty memory. Here goes:
It was about 1976 or 1977 and the Carpenters were on one of their many tours. On one of their stops (I do not remember which city) they checked in a day early and Karen went with a group of people to see Kiss the same night. As everyone knows Kiss have a spectacular live show with alot of theatrics and pyro, lights, explosions, blood spitting, fire breathing, and guitars on fire or smoking etc. When Karen watched this show she was amazed and loved it. Kiss happened to be staying at the same hotel as the Carpenters so Karen rang up Gene Simmons room and invited him to her room. Gene being Gene assumed this was an invitation to sex as he said "I went there with sex on my mind". When he got there that was not how it was going to go Karen engaged him in mostly intellectual conversation and as Gene said "When I got there sex was the last thing on my mind" They apparently talked for a long time and Karen was fascinated that a girl was waiting for Gene in his hotel room Karen would say don't you think you should get back to your friend in your room to which Gene would reply she can wait and Karen said is this girl gonna wait all night for you just to have sex with you Gene replied yes and Karen said something indicating her amazement at the whole idea. This conversation is not word for word but you get the gist of what happened. I am going by memory so if there are any inacuacies in this please correct me Rick this is how I remember the story went I am sure it is accurate and true.

I guess Karen liked hard rock, musicwise. That was cool about her. Just like how Kenny Rogers and Fmr Prez Bill Clinton loved Black Sabbath. How Phoebe Snow likes modern rock groups like Creed and Nickelback. And how Luciano Pavoratti has always wanted to record with Madonna. In music, anything is possible.
