Thing is KISS don't need to do anything to make a living, whereas Sloan most definitely do need to work. Awesome that your friend got them to play his birthday party! Did the band hang out after? They're nice guys, and really funny.
Sloan was at the height of their popularity then and touring internationally, they certainly didn't need the appearance fee for a teenager's birthday party to make a living at that point.
I didn't personally get anywhere them cause there were a few hundred people there, and I wasn't close friends with the guy. I know that they at least met the birthday kid and a few of his friends after the show, but I think that was brief. They didn't hang out and party with the kid or anything.
