KISS - Makin’ Love - Dec 1st 2023 - MSG New York (live) + Paul vs Tommy guitar battle

[@vinylrevuelive]

there's a lot said about them staying "too long". It's their lives..they get to decide that. Fans do too & they sell incredibly well still. KISS was a huge part of my childhood & I still listen to their music. Not many rock bands make it on my playlist..they always do. I'm thankful they were around during my lifetime & pray they get to finish this last chapter of life feeling proud & finding solace in other things.

[@richardhall3250]

'Makin Love' has a brilliant riff..Way ahead of its time.

[@TheLarryburns84]

whatchu mean? just sounds like a Zeppelin ripoff to me, always has, and I loved classic Kiss .. what makes ya think it was ahead of the curve, I'm legit curious now

[@zeeman3684]

My buddies and I took the bus in to nyc to see KISS at MSG in '76 while sophomores in hs. One of about 4-5 kiss shows I've been to. Kiss was a huge, huge part of my teen years. Such a fun band and a great and i mean great bunch of guys who had a true passion in America. Everyone's a winner with KISS!

Are you sure it was 1976?

It was either 2/18/77 or 1 of 3 shows in December. I was at both.

[@rocker76m88]

Cause some people are bitter & miserable twats

[@richardheadly7466]

you're right, we should stop being so critical of each other. The band should do the same, Paul Gene Ace & Peter stop bashing each other.

[@richardheadly7466]

There's nothing wrong with being critical when there's a legitimate case to be made for these guys staying too long. It's not like they stayed a year or two too long they stayed like 12 years too long. Just compare any concert from the EOTR tour to any show from 1974 to 2006. We're talking about a significant difference. I guess if people want to see them as they are now it's their choice.

[@jelijansen]

thanks KISS for all the music, the great live shows. you were part of my childhood and always stayed by my side. from my first LP I got in 1975 to now. It's a nice ending, 50 years. A lot of people don't know what standards you've set in the rock business (PA systems, elevators, fire, fireworks, show every other band that merchandise is important. ( every band in the land has merchandise nowadays) You have been punished by critics for it. And in recent years you have been slaughtered by vinegar pissers because you continued with Thommy and Eric. But it's your bond, your life. You don't have to watch or listen. Good luck to you, thank you for all the wonderful things you have brought me. A deep bow.

Great guitar duel-a first for a KISS concert?!!

[@thefonzkiss]

They’ve done it at every show for six months, it’s to give Gene a rest. It literally says on the setlists on the stage “Guitar duel, Gene sit”.

[@TommySG1]

I was at the show last night, you can hear his actual voice when he spoke to the crowd in between songs and it was kind of like scraping your nails across a chalkboard. I’m certain there were tons of enhancements done during the actual songs. I’m not trying to flame Stanley either here, just telling you what I observed last night. I was hoping Ace & Peter would’ve been making a cameo performance which would’ve definitely have been cool but as we all know that just wasn’t happening sadly.

[@3bwana]

So sad to hear him straining towards the end of this tune…good thing they’re finally packing it in

[@MetalliOnFinland]

@@dmatrix2that’s a shame

[@richardheadly7466]

Even the band themselves appeared to be tired of it. It never felt the same again after they kept going after the Farewell tour ended. The obvious question is why even do a "farewell" tour? The money & the knowledge their fans would come back. I see that as disrespectful to all of us fans. I seriously doubt Paul & Gene ever intended to stop. They've lied too many times, I've lost a great deal of respect for these guys. I'd rather just hear the truth but It's not forthcoming. I shouldn't be surprised they're willing to lip sync. Maybe there's a reason why Ace didn't want to come back, did he lose trust as well?

Every time they do the guitar 'dual', I cringe. It's awkward, out of place, and frankly, not that hard. Maybe it's only to give Simmons a breather? I'm curious to know if that guitar mess is done every single concert of the tour, or only if Gene needs it. He's 75 after all, so maybe he needs a bathroom break, or just sit down. His back probably kills.
