Peters “Woooooo” right before Aces solo on RnR AN still gives me goosebumps! 02:51

[@freepressright]

Peter Criss was on fire at this show. Magic was harnessed this night

[@Cristobolon]

No kidding, long gone were the problems he had on the first shows of the reunion tour

[@KISStributeNYC97]

He certainly was. With only 5 songs to play…he could let loose. He wasn’t pacing himself for a 2 hour show. I was there…and it was, like you said….MAGIC.

[@Mike-nh2ml]

@Cristobolin these are the early shows of the reunion tour lol

[@gettupp]

This was all of KISS... All the legends of the 70s right here alive in the 90s and beyond...

[@docbrummer2532]

Totally agree, the drums themselves sound good too. G & P must’ve let somebody else mic em😂

[@josephluciano2102]

This is the real KISS. Probably in their prime. All 4 were on a great place. This to me is the best iteration of KISS. Glad I was able to experience it.

[@mphineas1]

Dude's were FEELING it that night.

[@KISStributeNYC97]

They certainly were. With only 5 songs to play….they let loose…especially Peter. I thought the audio mix was awesome….it was a highlight of the reunion era.

[@gettupp]

What you heard about in the seventies us exactly what you seen in this night in the 90s... You'd be hard-pressed to find better five songs from any concert from the 90s... When they said the hottest band in the world motherfuker this is what they were talking about 💥

[@brianpowers3742]

Man, even Gene kicked it up a notch!!

[@peterrijkmans2562]

The 1996 Kiss Reunion tour captured '70's Kiss raw power all cylinders firing. Glad the original 4 did this 1 more time!🤘

[@MrDeengels]

I saw them in 96 when I graduated high school, the best way to kick off a summer!!!

[@LinkRocks]

@@MrDeengels I saw them that same year when I was 19. Still the best show I've ever been to. Everyone was so excited and just having a great time.

[@jumbod]

The version of Deuce sounds just as good as any show from the 70s

[@arielheraldojesuscorridor5736]

This was one the best Kiss concerts... Without too many specials effects and the best performance of the band with all their talents. In fact the best one ever.

[@leokimvideo]

Ace rules this show, it's not Kiss without Ace

[@paulharding706]

It's not KISS without Paul and Gene.

I can't believe this was more than 26 years ago. Insane.

This was their best performance of the entire reunion era. They were firing on all cylinders this night.

[@jimzack3554]

Only one band in the world like Kiss and there will never be another.......

[@LinkRocks]

Damn right. No one does it like KISS.

[@centinela24542]

The real inventors of the Live Shows!

[@dynjarren8355]

This is great and they look energized because they were playing their hometown probably. The last hurrah!

[@dynjarren8355]

To all the crap heads putting down Peter Criss and saying he’s not a good drummer listen to this and eat your words! Look and listen to the groove the Catman lays down! Crisses drumming is on point here! Sounds damn good! So what were you talking about? A bunch of BS! And he’s laughing and singing along even! And Ace sounds good here, too! It’s not KISS without Ace and Criss!

[@kevinchandler179]

I agree as a die hard Peter Criss fan!!!! He is amazing and fantastic 👏

[@maria-lena5919]

WOW!!! I can feel the energy through the video! 🎉😊

[@StilianosPetronella]

Peter criss acts like a real cat on his drum set and ace frehley just landed from mars to earth for the show.gene simmons and paul stanley are dynamites on stage. seems like nobody can stop them..the greatest band of all times KISS!

I saw Kiss 5 times in Concert and Love Love how iam part of the Kiss ARMY They are the God's of Thunder of Rock and Roll

[@MrDeengels]

They were absolute magic this night and personified why the world loved KISS!!! They were exceptional this night!! I saw them in 96!!!

[@misterdetail]

This was like time travel to 1977. Peter was so good here! The original and best for sure.

AAAAACCCCEE!!!!!!!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

[@CaptainHi-Top-w5q]

We partied here way before this concert YO DENNIS THIS ONE'S 4U !

[@ChrisJohnson-x1x]

Queen has Live Aid, Jimi Hendrix has Woodstock, Beatles has Shia Stadium. Kiss has The Brooklyn Bridge.

[@garcemac]

Best American band ever. Not now. With Ace and Peter? Yes. Four guys and fireworks. Count me in.

[@Rockandrollgeerage]

It really sucks that they couldn't keep this together for the last 20 years

[@KISStributeNYC97]

I hear you. It was magic. But we never got a real KISS reunion record. I think if that would have happened..if they had just taken more time with it(Psycho Circus)….and let Peter and Ace play on the record….fully….contribute more to the songwriting process….it would have mattered. Fans knew right away it wasn’t Ace and Peter on that record. That hurt the whole reunion vibe. It would have shown Peter and Ace that it WAS a band again. But they were left out of it, save for a song or two. Ah….what could have been.

[@mmonkeyman1403]

Peter's drumming ability was marginal at best in 1996, I can't imagine what It'd be like today.

[@gettupp]

​@@mmonkeyman1403I've heard that many times but did you see those hands on this night are you f****** kidding me Peter was all world especially on love gun... Which requires repetitive hammers again and again 🤛

[@kevinchandler179]

​@@mmonkeyman1403Marginal?? Lol 😂😂 What show are you watching 👀!!!! Peter is a frickin legend

[@paulharding706]

​@@kevinchandler179Peter was solid during the Reunion Tour, but sucked after that.

[@graemespringer4643]

Peter is even moving his hands!! And unlike the way the other 96 shows were recorded with Ace under a microscope this sounds more like they would really sound like being present 💝

[@KISStributeNYC97]

Yes! This mix was awesome. The drums, I may be wrong, we’re not triggered here…which lent itself to the band sounding even more….live. I love this performance even more because I was there. They were on fire.

[@Lylesatenegje]

it is triggered for the most part if you look closely in the drums on his sides but his snares are triggered but his tom drums arent and some i cant look clearly due the camera angles

[@gettupp]

​@@LylesatenegjeI think your eyes are not in tune with your brain when it comes to timing here... I was backstage on most any other concert I think you're right.. but here they are not triggered... Unbelievably because everybody said thought talked they should be but Ace of the driving force and we don't need it tonight... Looks like he was right. Fucking Ace🤟🏼

[@Lylesatenegje]

@@gettupp i have poor eye coordination so yes

[@gettupp]

@@Lylesatenegje I know I ain't all that good anymore either my man... Didn't mean to drop bombs on you but most of the rest of the tour you were right but not on this night... It was like these guys were so ready for the Sprint... And they knew this was not going to be a marathon... The hottest band in the world 🌎🌍 proved it that night 💥 Keen observation my man just not on that night 🤟🏼

[@gettupp]

When you hear of the legend of KISS from the seventies this is what they're talking about. This is KISS in full force... That night in 1996 was a night right out of 1977. AND YES THE MAGIC WAS BACK💥

[@skipthebase]

They were the best ever during this mini show. Hands down incredible. The version of Deuce and Dr. Love was so good!

[@darealgodzilla]

They sounded rejunevated and fantastic in 96/97, after that tour it was downhill. Now the band (not even considering that its now Gene, Paul, Thomy, Eric) sound like a tired, professional oldies act

[@L10Garcia]

I agree. In 1996/97 they were exploding with energy. Today they look completely washed out, no energy at all.

[@jtjt4827]

I disagree about the tired and old part. Saw them 3 weeks and they killed it. Sure they are not Ace and Peter, but Eric and Tommy hold their own place.

[@Prof_Tickles92]

Most people are still satisfied with their concert experience.

[@CowtownJohn1]

I still want to see them, kind of closure. They were the first concert is ever seen, San Diego Sports Arena, 1977.

[@KISStributeNYC97]

@@Prof_Tickles92That’s my point….you go for the experience. It’s based on that original idea they had to put on the best show you’ve ever seen. And some are still getting that experience and don’t care who’s in the makeup.

[@chrismarsh438]

These 4 guys together are the reason kiss is so frickin awesome! And it takes all 4 of them together! I still get goosebumps 28 years later! Did I just Say 28 years later? 😢 peter is the oldest obviously but he still looks great! I just hate the way certain members talk about others! They should all be proud together especially about performances like this one! It just doesn't get any better! It can't, because this is it!!!

To us 70s kids too young to see them in our youth the reunion tour in the 90s was a dream come true. 🍻

[@jasonpeters9716]

Lol...I went July96. Kansas City. I was 19yrs old. We left after AIC finished their set. We weren't sticking around watch some Corny Kiss band. After watching Alice in Chains tear up the stage! So I didn't see Kiss, we went for AIC. After AIC was finished? Literally +150 16-24yr olds left b4 Kiss took stage. To this day? One funniest things I've ever seen. (Best part? The Kansas City Star wrote an article about youngsters leaving b4 Kiss took stage. The nxt day in local paper.)

[@jasonpeters9716]

Irony? That was Layne Staley's last performance with Alice in Chains. I never even put 1+2 together, that I was at Layne Staley's last show with AIC till he died in Apr02.

+@thechuckster6838, I have seen Kiss 17 times. But somehow it is not enough, I would have love to have witnessed this in person. P.S. Ironically, I am probably the only chick to have seen them this many times, without sleeping with a single member of the band.

[@thechuckster6838]

@@ChrisJohnson-x1x My first Kiss show was in February 1977 at Madison Square Garden in New York. There have been about 15 gigs between then and now. It was special to come full circle seeing them at Madison Square Garden as a first show and seeing their last show at that same venue.

The newspaper even wrote an article about it the nxt day. "The Kansas City Star." (I mean? Lol, seriously? How could any1 with just a lil bit of taste watch Kiss after watching Layne Staley & AIC tear up the stage? It was a joke. I mean ALICE IN CHAINS? Layne Staley! Whos side band was Mad Season! Kiss to us was basically "New Kids on the Block." A boy band.) *Sad part? I didnt realize till Apr02 when Staley died? I was literally at Layne Staley's last performance with Alice in Chains. July96, Kansas City. @Kemper Arena.

What a non sense, it's sad seeing someone around 50 being this uneducated, dumb... And you cant even write...
