KISS Farewell Tour Reviews

From: Joe
Ok first of all im not from oklahoma. Im originaly from New Jersey but ive been living in Kansas for the past year. I've been a Kiss fan since 1975. Kiss has been a major part of my life since i was nine years old. Hell if it wasnt for Kiss i wouldnt have met the woman im going to make my wife. I met her talking about Kiss on the internet. Now im living with her in Kansas. Now what was going to make this show special for me was it was going to be the first time we saw the band together. We have both seen several tours but not together. I saw them for Love Gun,Dynasty,animalize,asylum,crazy nights,revenge, the reunion tour 5 times and now the farewell tour. I have seen them in alot of major cities including Philadelphia,New York,New Jersey + Pittsburgh And i have to say without a doubt the Most terrible so far has been Oklahoma city!!!!

Sorry for the long start . Heres the review. Skid Row well they sucked in the 80's and they suck even more now!!! I havent seen a bigger bunch of no talent assholes in my life . They dont deserve any more of a review so on to Uncle Ted.

The motor city madman was incredible. His set alone was worth the ticket price. He played so many classics including Stormtroopin,Free For All, Wang dang sweet poontang and many more . Ive read many reviews saying Ted was to political. He mentioned politics on one song so get over it. The man rocks !!!!And in my opinion he was the highlight of the night. Im not taking anything away from kiss but the show is basically the same thats why i said that.

Ok on to Kiss . I thought the band was very tight. There were a couple of bad bass notes and Ace screwed up a solo here and there but when Ace fucks up he always comes up with something good so i was happy.well i was happy till they played I Love It Loud . Thats when i was pissed off . I believe it was absolutely rediculous to play 3 songs from a period that Ace and Peter were not involved in. Instead of getting "nothin to lose" i get "i love it loud " Instead of a classic like "Hotter than Hell" they play a piece of crap like "Heavens on fire". Theres no "I want you" but heres "Lick it up". Come on guys this is just retarded. Dont forget the reason your selling tickets is because you got Ace and Peter back.Lets here some classics from that era the only era that counted . Dont get me wrong i didnt hate the whole show and during some parts i was teary eyed but the 80's shit has gotta go.

Now the reason i said oklahoma city was the worst had nothing to do with the band . This is a total shot at the crowd . From my vantage point i have never seen a more ruder disgusting bunch of assholes at a show in my life. The whole night i was either getting beer spilled on me or dodgeing a falling drunk. What i want to know is why do you spend that much money on a show when you spend youe whole time getting up to buy beer ? During each song a different bunch of inbreads would go trotting along to the stands to get more hick juice to annoy the real fans who were trying to enjoy the show .Im not saying this about all oklahoma city people just the bunch that were in my section. I am very happy i had the opratunity to see the band with my fiance . But if you all want a real tip go to see them in a real town. I will miss Kiss but hopefully i will get the chance to see them later in the tour.

And one final note. Ace when it's all over please dont make me wait long for a solo album it will be nice to hear your guitar on a record again the psycho circus album really could have used it .
