Kiss - Soundcheck London o2 arena 2023 - Full show with Q&A

[@chrissimons9733]

Wow i was 12 when i first saw these guys 1980 in Australia. No internet then thought i would never see them again. 9 concerts later and they are still Bloody Awesome KISS!!!

[@Dave_Albright]

I find it hard to imagine. You have your favorite band. You have your records and a few magazines with trivia about your favorite band and then you see music videos on TV, but that's it. You don't know anything anymore. But today there is social media... with videos of many concerts, whether bootlegs or audience footage. You see meet n' greets, sound checks, backstage videos... and if the musicians also fill their social media with stuff, I can really imagine that something like that is mystical and the magic is lost.

What a great upload and a fantastic experience for those there. Thanks for sharing it with us. Have to say Paul looks absolutely awesome for his age and this is up pretty close. Kiss will always be one of my most favourite bands. Absolute legends!

[@wiiliewicking7606]

What a great experience that was a night to remember

[@neilthompson7456]

Seen them live over the years, and this year in Birmingham. They’re a class act, the real thing and they’ve never sounded better. After all this time there will never be another band like them. Thank you Paul, Gene, Tommy & Eric.

[@TommyFlanagan666]

@@MARK-f4p8g I don’t even know what the hell you’re trying to say, mr. user. Do you mean the band was retracing their footsteps? Well that makes zero sense. It might help if you could speak in complete sentences. Or were you referring to “backing tracks?” Well duh, professor, of course they use backing tracks. What, you think they should whip out a full 63 piece orchestra when Eric sings Beth? Punctuation and the proper use of upper case letters seem to be a challenge for you as well. But hey, other than all that, great comment. 🥴

[@edteach3r]

Totally agree Neil! I am 65 years old. After my first concert in the Destroyer era, I saw them again in Vancouver two days ago … outstanding. Those who cannot even begin to imagine what these guys have achieved, let alone being able to do anything similarly successful in the minuscule, I just ignore for the trolls they are.

[@jedw9983]

Saw these Dudes in 1983, Southampton Gaumont, and they were epic. They even signed some records for us at the local HMV. Great days, forty years ago!

[@vicesquadpunk]

The impressiveness and gargantuan larger than life image and sound came from these guys being anonymous, superhuman. It doesn’t quite sit well with me watching them behind the scenes, it spoils the illusion of what they once were. I fully understand people pay extra to see and meet them, I just wanted to share my thoughts from the perspective of a young - now older kid who grew up with their music and images engrained into my head who became a full time musician himself 🔥❤️🔥

Eh, I like Ace singing it too. I mean it is about Ace almost getting fatally electrocuted at a show in the 70's you know. Kinda weird for Tommy to be singing it to me because Tommy hasn't ever been almost fatally electrocuted. If I'm being honest I like the two songs Tommy sang on Monster and Sonic Boom better.

It's so good to see them playing different songs than on the last tour, which was only repeated

Look, they aren’t 25 any longer. But, in fairness to the guys, I saw Ace in Houston in the Alice Cooper tour. Ace has slipped drastically compared to Gene and Paul. I love ‘Em all, but I get why he hasn’t rejoined the group. I wish the whole band well in their waning years, and I hope they find peace and happiness in whatever they choose to do next.

He was pretty decent last year. But this year jesus idk wtf happened he definitely lost weight but his performance is slow lets not forget also he sounds like he hasn’t been practicing at all or is on something the way he’s slurring his words

Ace is ten times better than cosplayer Tommy.

[@BaronVonBielski]

Ace’s ability may not be what it should and yes I agree that he is a shell of his former self. He was never a singer, but he did halfway decent. Now it’s really bad. However, it’s Ace. He wrote great songs, came up with some awesome solos and will go down in history as a guitar hero for many. An influencer. Tommy will never be any of those. And I’m not putting him down. Or at least intending to. His place in KISStory is yet to be decided. Bruce is KISS’ most technical guitarist. He can play anything. It’s crazy how good he is. Vinnie co-wrote some great stuff, but butchered Ace’s solos. That bugs me the most. Mark St. John goes down as basically a session guitarist for Animalize and thank God for Reiter’s Syndrome. Sounds cruel, but we got BK on the Animalize tour because of it. Love Eric Singer. Love Eric Carr. Hate Peter Criss.
