Guys..... great show at the Molson Amphitheatre. Took my 12 yr old son to see KISS for the first time and he and I loved The Envy . As far as we were concerned,
the order of the openers was wrong. The Envy were awesome and could have handled the opening on their own !! Great job!!
My son and I bought the EP and love it!! Can hardly wait to see you play again live and more albums!!

PS: It goes without saying....KISS was awesome!!! Gene & Paul rock!
Hello Mr.Simmons,
My 9 yr daughter and I can't wait to get the CD for The Envy. It's great to finally see a Toronto based band being promoted properly. We have a lot of great talent and the rest of the world doesn't get to hear them, but now they will hear The Envy all over the world.
Thanks for finding them and letting them open for KISS as I live in Toronto and I would have never have heard of them and I'm hoping they will get some radio play soon.
P.S. We watch Family Jewels and can't wait to see The Envy episode.
Take Care & Rock On,
Evan
Dear Gene and Staff @ Simmons Records,
On Aug. 28th I attended the Kiss Show and for the first time I saw The Envy. I was really blown away by The Envy! The Envy has a HELL-of-A Stage presence.
The music just hits you in the chest. The Coolest thing I noticed was the range of ages (12yrs into the mid twenties)
These kids were soaking the whole
musical package up, like a sponge. I hope The Envy, the next time around could play the Orange Peel in Asheville, NC. The Orange Peel has made its name in
Rolling Stone Magazine for one of the places to play for up and coming bands. Asheville has several colleges in the area that would make a even larger
fan base for The Envy. AC Entertainment books the bands at the Orange Peel.
Hope to see The Envy soon!
Les
P.S. if I can be of any help to promote The Envy,
please contact me.
I saw The Envy in a small concert venue here in Edmonton (the Starlite Room) in December 2009. They were an opening act for the group Stereos. After the show, I went to where they were selling the T-shirts and posters. Shaun was great, friendly and down to earth (I got a poster and he signed it as did a couple of his band members). I am in my late forties and he was probably surprise by an older woman making such a big fuss over him. However, I thought this group was amazing and I had to let them know they were amazing. I went to the concert only because my daughter is only 14 and I won’t allow her to attend concerts without adult supervision. They were also performing with Midway Station (which is also a good band). I told Shaun that day that I thought they should have been the main act, not an opening performer. I thought they were that good, and Shaun had the real rock star look. I felt like I was staring into the face of a famous rockstar (like you Gene). I guess I was, as The Envy is now a fast rising group. I even looked all over the internet for upcoming concert dates and found nothing. I could not believe that a band this good did not have more exposure, and figured them to be a hobbie group for this reason.
My daughter loves them as well. She is also very exited for them to come back to Edmonton. She tells all her friends about them and she wants me to get her one of their hoodies. She loves their logo with the hand. I will get her one at the concert when The Envy are next in Edmonton if it is not too expensive.
We were loving these guys before you signed them. I don’t do concerts, but I will go see The Envy with my daughter next time they come the Edmonton, Alberta. We love your TV show, but presently do not have cable so have not watched it for a while. I think this band will do great things under your wing. I wish The Envy and you and your family great things in the future. We love you all.

Great show at Lakewood, GA!!!
KISS absolutely ROCKED, and The Envy may be one of my new favorite bands.
I've looked everywhere to buy the "Don't Let Go EP" but can't find anywhere to purchase it!
Itunes doesn't have the album and I've looked everywhere on the internet and can't seem to find it either.
Can you please let me know where I can purchase the EP?
I'll look forward to your response.
Thank you,
Pierce
Response from Gene:
