I saw KISS for the first time on August 14, 1979 at the Municipal Auditorium in Nashville TN. I was 13. I can't believe my parents let me go! The last time I saw them was at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville in October, 2023. My son surprised me with his company's box seats. I was introduced to KISS back in 1977 when my best friend snuck her older brother's albums. My absolute favorite band!

If you're ever in the mood for a cheesy "guilty pleasure" type movie, check out Detroit Rock City. It's about 4 Kiss fans and their misadventures trying to get into a Kiss concert in Detroit in 1978. Edward Furlong from Terminator 2 was in it and there's a performance from the original Kiss. Unfortunately, Kiss has called it quits. They no longer play live shows. However, Ace Frehley is still playing shows with his band. I saw them a few months ago in Rhode Island. They played a lot of old KISS tracks, and his band is insanely talented and fun to watch.

Welp, i can see you are officially hooked lol. As a life long kiss fan all i can say is take a few days and listen to everything from them. From the self tittled debut in 74, to their last album called monster. Theyre all on youtube and spotify. Now, for a visual guide, id say start with the offical home video called kiss xposed. It does a good job at the history from day one to about 1993. After that, id recommend the second coming which covered the reunion era. And finally probably vh1 behind the makeup special which is early 2000s after the reunion. They all are easy to find.

The anomaly of the song is that the star child, Paul Stanley actually wrote the song. It was a much tamer version and the producer said let's make it really heavy and give it to Gene. Paul was reluctant but did it anyway and turned out he could write for other people and it turned out to be a feather in his cap.

They also had the band come out and play unplugged for 2 hours and play stuff they didn't even know (at request of the crowd).

He’s older than the other members so he started to age a little quicker during the Reunion Tour/Psycho Tour. 2) The 2 mics are for when Gene does his “dual demon voice”. It’s hard to hear during this version though. 3) KISS played there LAST EVER show back in December. So it’s too late for you experience it in real life BUT!!!

My friend, that is Peter Criss. I've seen them quite a few times in the 70's , & they never disappointed. The 4 original members were the true Kiss that I loved. Whatever turmoil that might have been going on in the band at the time, they made sure their fan's had a good time. EVERY BAND has some sort of disagreements anger, or whatever it might be going on. Sometimes, that can make a band stronger by getting through the problem in a mature way. God of Thunder is one of my top kiss songs along with "Strange Ways" & "Black Diamond." If you ever get a chance to download or borrow the "Hotter Than Hell " album, take a listen to the song Strange Ways. Peter Criss does the vocals & Ace does one of his MOST PHENOMENAL lead guitar on this song . Trust me man You should review it

I asked my father to tape it for me, because I was in Salem that night. Two weeks later I went to the show with a buddy of mine. He'd never seen Kiss before so I gave him a ticket.

Yes, Paul wrote the original version of this song until it was rewritten and given to Gene. And this is the 4 original members. They hadn't planned on doing an album together but the Reunion tour was so monumentally successful and profitable that they did an album, Psycho Circus, and that tour is what this video is from. This was the 1st show of that tour. When the reunion happened, Ace and Peter screwed themselves and made the mistake of signing over the rights to their makeup design. That's why, Eric Singer ended up wearing the Catman makeup and Tommy Thayer wore the Space Ace makeup after they split again. On this tour, KISS had planned to use a circus troupe doing all their acts as the opener for the concert since this was the Psycho Circus tour. But that circus troupe was too expensive to keep it going so this show was the only one it was used for. As for going to a KISS show, they played their last show not long ago in NYC. Plus, Paul doesn’t sound good anymore and they were playing to some tracks as well which, as much as I love my boys, is total crap. Paul's voice has been going downhill for a number of years now actually. Still a great show but not what it was. Considering hos age, that's to be expected and not an insult.

Not the reunion tour. They wore replicas of the Love Gun costumes. This is most likely Psycho Circus with the Destroyer outfits.

6:25 he gets down the same way he goes up, he kind of just steps back and the harness and everything brings him down slowly. You can see it live sometimes!

Not exactly. Paul wrote the song, producer Bob Ezrin decided that Gene would sing the song, which Paul wasn't really happy about. It was a good call because the version with Paul singing kinda sucks, very up tempo and not as menacing as when Gene sings it. The studio version from Destroyer will always be the best version with all the creepy sound effects.👍

Just a theory, he’s using two mics because one might be a vocal fx for his demon voice and regular voice at the same time. Never actually thought about it.
