"It has been impossible to get any work done today, knowing that Gene Simmons and Paul freakin' Stanley watched Pub Choir's video overnight," Jorgensen told The Music today.
"I keep rechecking the tweets and, yes, it actually happened. If that's not validation I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS. I'm so stoked, for Pub Choir, and also the 1,500 people that sang with us!"
