KISS - Opening Night of THE FAREWELL TOUR (Phoenix, Arizona 2000) Part 3

Ted Nugent hosts the opening night of KISS' "Farewell" Tour in 2000. Comment if you were there!!

[@markfrederick8762]

I was part of the security force at this very concert, and let me tell you, I worked a hell of a lot of concerts during my security days and this was by far the best show I ever worked. I started in middle of the crowd, then the stage barricade and finally I helped escort the band backstage. Paul was nice enough to give me his last guitar pick. I still have it to this day.

[@bobbyhitt4161]

It was kind of cool to see PETER CRISS AND ACE FREHELEY doing songs like Heavens on Fire and Lick It Up, songs that they didn't play on.

[@jerseyjoe1677]

Bobby Hitt Yea it’s cool but they didn’t want to

[@skeptic10]

I know. I hate when in other bands like Black Sabbath Ozzy never sings Dio stuff or Dio sing Tony's stuff etc. It would be so cool to hear these songs! Very cool of Ace and Peter to play these songs!

[@mkl62]

I wonder how Ace and Peter felt about doing a song that they weren't originally a part of. I noticed that Ace was sort of hesitant about getting next to Gene.

[@Nifterific]

i remember standing outside the pavilion waiting to get in. you could hear kiss practicing shout it out loud and detroit rock city because they would be playing them that night on VH1, and after a few minutes of silence paul did that opening scream to heaven's on fire and my mom lost her freaking mind lol

[@Undercoverbrotherfromanother]

Love kiss. Ace and Peter rock. Paul's voice is gone. Not his fault. Everyone ages.

[@AarosConcerts]

It definitely wasn’t gone here.

[@dustzza123]

You’re on fucking crystal meth if you thought his voice was gone

[@audiebl48]

I was in the 14th row! When Paul Stanley went out over the audience, he stopped 6 feet from me!

[@boycbronco]

Caught the Farewell tour twice. Salt Lake City in 3/00, Nampa, ID in 7/00.

[@jerseyjoe1677]

Those DW’s look so cool!

[@metalcavy33]

Paul’s voice was spot on back then. He killed it. I saw them in ohio.

[@chriso3780]

I was there for this show. . Even got sucked into buying a Farewell Tour shirt that I still have. . smh

[@jwhiteout]

My god, this sounds like KISS shreds...

[@rojas559]

[@stevenedwards4470]

The sweet sweet lie of the "farewell" tour. I still await their long overdue retirement

[@fourtraxer]

Pauls voice retired 15 years ago. This should have been the end.

[@annwilkiemeyer7655]

ACE FREHLEY IS Happier a Solo Artist Now ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Ghostvibes85]

My first concert i was 14 my step dad asked if i wanted to come i was like fuck yea kiss beer n boobs nuff said

[@batlizard37]

they sound like theyre playing in water. lord its dragging so bad

[@tylerglynn6334]

Thanks to Peter and Ace. More to peter though

[@AceOfHeart2012]

I saw two of the shows on this tour and I was disappointed that they played a non-Ace/Peter tune. They have such a backlog of material I always wondered why they felt they had to play this song which is IMHO one of their suckier songs.

[@cqleonardo]

the drum sounds so bad, this trigged drum was fucking up everything, Gene and Paul shouldve kicked Peter's ass after the PC Tour, call Singer again and do a decent tour with the one of the best line ups of the band

[@shahlan68]

The playing was worst than the sound. Im ashamed of it.

[@SuperDachshund]

Somebody around 2:24 slopped up a guitar chord.

[@jerseyjoe1677]

SuperDachshund it’s called live music! Not like the shitty end of the road tour

[@marclivingood1729]

[@chetwilson4162]

Grab cash tour next tour old folks home.

[@BiggusDickus2]

Lars Ulrich doesn't even drum this bad.

[@shawnbush]

Sounds like you are a bit jealous live with it he's Peter criss and you are not

[@albitcapinigro1107]

oy vey

[@melesmeles2095]

Is that Paul Stanley or Vince Neil ?

[@davidmerlin3344]

Gene was way out of key

[@kaorikodera]

軽快なリズム感、皆が調和しているね。

[@hisvorpalsword]

It's weird but I always felt like Kiss could've sounded better if they didn't suck so bad.

[@shabbadarabbada]

gene .. lol

[@VendettaAustralia]

Skid Row would have been the best band on that tour.

[@PerpetualArt]

Vendetta Australia + In Cleveland it was Skid Row, and Ted Nugent.

[@alexm5764]

Wow this makes me appreciate Eric Carr even more. Peter's drumming is so off on this song

[@shawnbush]

He's right on time you obviously know nothing of the playing of the drums

[@The6thRamone]

they kinda settled with Peter Criss, after all Peter answered the add in the paper, Kiss could have kept searching, for a drummer.

[@damionchrist]

Peter was an amazing drummer (and singer) in the bands early days on up until Bob Ezren came along and basically shattered the poor guys ego! Peter's style is more on the jazz/swing side as a player, any other drummer can tell that instantly. Although, he did still managed to created some of Rock's most legendary drum parts! Cocaine did a Hell of a number on him....plus he was the oldest member and was against the 2 most full of shit douche bag pieces of work in Rock n' Roll. Give the cat a break for fucks sake! I think Peter had the dignity to bow out somewhat gracefully when he started to sense KISS was becoming a load of corporate pop merchandising bubblegum garbage. The music seemed to become completely secondary after Destroyer.

[@PerpetualArt]

DamionChrist + Bob Ezrin shattered poor Peter's ego? What are we talking about, 8th grade gym class! Peter was full of himself. Always threatening to quit if they didn't let him sing songs he didn't write, and other destructive behavior.

[@melesmeles2095]

I thought they said many times they sound like the record. What record was this trash
