Just got back from Chicago.

It was a great show, but....
Paul sounded great. 'Strutter' there seemed to be some notes he wasn't hitting just right, but it was his first song of the night, I'm thinking that could be it. At one point during the show, the stage right mic went out on Paul, when he was doing back up vocals, I'll have to wait for the CD to find out which one.

Gene was great. He did the bell thing during his Blood spitting. It seemed very quick and didn't seem to have the impact when it was introduced in Philly (I think that was the show). The spotlight guy didn't get yelled at either.

Tommy was on fire. I liked hearing 'Shock Me', he played it well, he sang it well, that is all.*

Eric played very solid too, of course this is pretty much the standard for this line-up.

I'm comparing this show to the Cobo first night show, since I saw that one. Like I said Paul was a lot better. Dr. Love was in as well as Shock Me. At least I got something different. The crowd cheered when they mentioned Sonic Boom, but they really didn't seem to be into Modern Day Delilah. Shame. Every song Gene sang, he would say clap your hands or make the motion and the people responded. The Paul Stanley banter was a little different, so that was a bonus.

All and all it was great. Wish I would have got to hear Say Yeah.

*A funny/sad little anecdote. When Tommy was introduced to play Shock Me, a group of four was escorted (it seemed anyway, since an usher was right behind them) well the lady was giving the finger towards the stage. Either she was pissed that they did something to be kicked out and mad at the band, or she was that angry that Tommy was playing Shock Me, or I guess it could have been both. I never seen any of them come back (I was in the first row of the floor between the two floor sections, so there was a walkway right in front of me).

Also wanted to add. I stumbled across Tommy's wife's website (through twitter) and she does this rock/stone jewelry. It looked like Tommy's necklace could have been made by her, that's sweet.

All in all great night.

Sorry for the disjointed review. Like I said, I just got back from Chicago (2 hourish ride) and it is 3AM now.

Thanks for the review. My show is this upcoming Saturday, so I'll post my thoughts after I've seen. It's my first time seeing them live, so it'll be interesting.

Thanks again!

So....three words about seeing KISS for the first time:

Oh my God.

Absolutely sensational. Nothing short of an awesome evening. Yoh know, you could go to one of their shows, not know ANY of their songs and still have an awesome time.

Setlist pretty much the same:

(They added "Do You Love Me".)

Deuce
Strutter
Let Me Go Rock & Roll
Hotter Than Hell
Shock Me
Calling Dr. Love
Modern Day Delilah
Cold Gin
Do You Love Me
Say Yeah
100,000 Years
I Love it Loud
Black Diamond
Rock And Roll All Nite

Encore:

Shout It Out Loud
Lick It Up
Love Gun
Detroit Rock City

There were times, looking at the crowd, that I felt that I was at a concert circa 1978...lol...but all ages show, that's for sure.

But there was this one kid sitting in front of me, who had been done up like Paul Stanley and Mom like Peter Criss (Eric Singer), and he was rockin out the whole time, singing and dancing away. My friend got this shot of home and it just proves the music of any kind reaches out to everyone. (Picture below)

Thoroughlly enjoyed my evening, and would do it again. My only regret is not being able to meet Shannon, who was standing on the sideline.

Is anyone watching the live webcast on facebook for Kiss? I'm setting here watching the preshow stuff and they are showing the guys who are responsible for making the recording of the show to be sold via CD or a USB that you can get after the show. It
s too cool. DL really needs to try this. I know I'd buy the damn thing. I would love nothing better to be able to buy a copy of the show I just watched live.

Miss Magic · Posted: Thu, Nov 26 2009, 6:12 AM

I'm watching it right now. Even though I saw the show two weeks ago, i'm ready to see it again. The webcast of a live show is an awesome idea, without a doubt. You know, there are alot of people that laugh at KISS, but you gotta admit that they got it together when it comes to things like this.

Just got my tickets order for when the tour here in May next year. Never seen them live before - yes I am a Kiss virgin! My hubby has already seen them, and we will be taking our 11 year old son with us - his first gig. I can't wait!

You're gonna love it! It was my first time seeing them too, and I will definitely go and see them again anytime.

One of these days, I'll get to see them live! I've heard from everyone who has ever gone to one of their shows how great it is! Very Happy

Should have gone by yourself, seriously.
