Wonderfully articulate and insightful. Paul is an inspiration, coming from a place of genuine honesty. What a talent.

This was the ability/talent elite Kiss lineup, and that includes the time with Eric Carr, God rest his soul. I regard Carr and Singer interchangeably because they were both wonderful drummers and a great fit. With no disrespect to original Kiss, because I love the era that started it all, but Kulick and Carr/Singer were superior musicians to Ace and Peter. Kulick was the same generation of player that Ace was, but he evolved from 70s guitarist to a very well-rounded 80s guitarist, learning and incorporating an appropriate amount of "shreddy" techniques to hold his own with the new generation of players, but without scrapping his authenticity and becoming a mindless walker. And when the Revenge era hit, he went back to his roots more. He was the total package, and a consummate professional who stays faithful to the fans to this day. Carr was a similar story -- of the right age to be a 70s rock drummer but open to new styles that included double bass drum use and more "metal" grooves. I do not believe Kiss would have survived the 80s with such a convincing transition into 80s hair metal if the originals had stayed. Not that I don't love the Catman's swingy grooves or Ace's "Keith Richards on steroids and cocaine" approach. It's all wonderful in it's own way. But this era was a kind of "real" that longtime fans like me miss.

Why is this one of my favorite songs
@fear011 күн бұрын
I was worried they wouldn't live up to my high expectations playing live as I have thought them to be the BEST band to come around in decades. Incredible song-writing, fantastic musicians and a real front man who looks as natural as the icons from years past. Needless to say, I wasn't disappointed. My only disappointment was brought up below in the fact that they didn't get enough time on stage. I will be honest. I travelled to this concert to see them and not the main act. Very happy I did and will definitely pursue them at another venue in the future. (ps thanks for the upload Stacy!)

I have a feeling that management didn't have time to set up video recording because the band was very busy with planning the next 6 months. Then you had the issue where the band didn't spend much time in the studio because the next tour was booked. Hindsight is 20/20 and I'm sure Kiss should have or could have but it was not in the cards
