It's taken me about a week to get round to writing about this show. I saw Kiss in 1996 at Donington which was their first gig with the original line-up in many years. This time I think Kiss were playing Glasgow for the last time. I don't remember much of the 1996 show (although I can find the setlist online and a video of the whole show on youtube).
I didn't like kiss when I was younger. I only really got into them after hearing Nirvana cover 'Do you love me?' and Anthrax talking about them. I remember picking up cassette copies of Destroyer and some of the other early albums (probably Alive!) in Lost in Music in the mid nineties. Great stupid rock although I've never been a massive fan of the later eighties stuff.
Tonight the show was amazing, from the opening fireworks through the lights, balloons, zip slides, mid crowd stage and cherry pickers. It looked great and kept me entertained. The sound was decent and the set list was fairly good.
I realise that a couple of the original members weren't there but the band were tight enough. I'm glad I made the effort to go.
Sadly I probably won't get to see them again.
