Troy Spiral (13) Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 Never was much of a fan. But they are the ONLY huge act to give detroit real respect. 45 years. 1974 - 2019. Game Over. Really this was for bobbi, but i figured I should take some time to learn about the band rather than just blindly walk into the concert I had to rob peter to pay paul for (so bobbi could go who is even more poor than I am) I had zero real interest. But I knew she would be sad FOREVER if she didn't get to go. Ended up dropping the cynicism about KISS and just enjoy it for what it is. A throwback to an earlier time when rock music was transtioning from one form to another. These guys pioneered a lot of what we have now. But, themselves kept their style and did not change with the times to sell records. Strangely that WORKED. I've never seen such a diverse crowd. 70 year olds in the same hallway with packs of 16 year old girls dressed in full kiss makeup? That is how you rake in the C A S H. lol They are good musicians (sorry if you don't agree you have never played an instrument seriously) Paul Stanley (usually the lead singer) is also a trained in Opera singer. They have this whole other aspect to them that is either embraced or ridiculed, that is they are old-school leave-it-all-on-stage OG rock god style showmen. The pyrotechnics the hydro (complicated lifts) and various other aspects take a ton of prep work and practice beyond the years and years of musical practice. Is that good? Well it's a extremely high skill bar, even if it isn't your cup of tea. Takes serious dedication to pull off. Especially on a grueling schedule, and every member of the band hovering around 60+ years old. I'm doing this while I wait for the HOUR DAMN LONG video to process / backup / upload. Been waiting almost 2 hours. TronRP 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
