I was there all the hate here. I was appreciative to be there this night and see the physical end of an era for Gene and Paul. Should they have called it years ago sure but to still see KISS in person one last time was amazing.
The first time I saw kiss was in 2022 with my mom and her friends it was a Christmas gift at first I was very hesitant cause I didn't know that much of KISS song I knew several of their songs but when we saw them they were definitely amazing amazing show it's wild their so old but it was definitely a amazing show especially with my mom ❤❤
It’s sad to see Kiss come to an end already I’m truly going to miss Kiss so much KISS will forever be my favorite rock band ROCK AND ROLL ALL NITE AND PARTY EVERY DAY 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Love them or loathe them, there are certain things about KISS some people tend to forget. They were KISS. There has been - as far as I can recall - only 3 other acts that have had the same worlwide impact on the youth of their times. Elvis, The Beatles and ABBA. They basically invented the larger-than-life stage show format and they had a mythic like concept with the make-up and costumes that lasted for a decade. One of the true great and original bands of all time.
I sat right about where you shot this from in February 1977. The concert began the same way with the same song. I am so glad they did a finale at MSG. NYC is Kiss home base and you were lucky to be there. Thanks for uploading.
Gracias por compartir prácticamente toda mi vida.Siempre estuvieron en los peores y mejores momentos,los voy a llevar siempre en mi corazón ❤️❤️❤️❤️😭😭😭😭
@@PhilipCunningham1788They can't afford it because these 2 clowns and 2 posers are only money grubbing from the persons who are buying the tickets!Just look at how way overpriced the tickets are to see this Clown show!I'd much rather pay to see the circus when it comes to town!It would be way more fun and way less expensive and there won't be any lipsynching or backing tracks being used to sugar coat it! Gene $immon$ KI$$ 🤡
Saw Kiss at the sold out Hollywood Bowl recently and they rocked! Some of the comments here are ridiculous. Always amazing to me that so many people waste their time making those kind of negative comments. If you don't like Kiss, don't watch the video, and keep your negative comments to yourself. Do something positive with your life. Listen to your mamma - if you don't have something nice to say STFU. Sheesh. Thanks Michael for putting up this video.
That`s what they`re there for ma`am/sir.....I`M just venting because of how they took advantage of so many after the 'Farewell' tour....I went through thousands thinking that was the end of the band I defended since I was a kid in `77/`78 going into/out of high school,through family deaths,marriages,divorces,etc....For GOD`s sake,my sentimental favorite song was/is "Odyssey" from "The Elder" record....Tattoos of them all over me kinda gives me somewhat of a right to opine and criticize if I feel and I`m sorry if you take it personal......My mother also used to tell ME,"Live and let live","Ignore it,if you don`t like it",and even the classic"Sticks and stones...." Obviously,words nowadays are considered assault weapons,so there you go..............Glad you enjoyed the show...so did I.
Hell yeah Lets cancel all the bad reviews for restaurants and services with horrible experiences and just use the comment "keep your negative comments to yourself"... /s
Glad to see the end of the road for KISS. I saw them in 1979 on the disco tour and again in 1996 on the reunion tour… which is when they should’ve hung ‘em up, but I always knew they’d stay around too long to the point where the fake band in the Holiday Inn Express commercial could prolly put on a better show!
yall know that the video screens are a couple milliseconds off when watching a video on youtube right? He definitely uses guide tracks throughout the show, but its not a complete mime. So many people on here “oh the tracks start at 2:19” the whole thing is probably sung to a guide track, but its his voice coming out, just a little out of sync on the big screen. Alot of concert and sporting event screens tend to run 1 or 2ms forward or back when rewatched through another screen
Exactly. People are stupid. You can tell hes signing, you can tell their playing their instruments because they fuck up. No one in live music today doesnt have clicks, guide tracks, and background noise when playing shows of this size.
It is the only way to put together the lights and video. Guide tracks don't mean lip syncing. I wish people that don't know shit keep commenting about stuff they are ignorant of...
@DavidShoup-qj7jw exactly. Everything is timed, video, music, Pyro. All has to be synced up for show like this. All bands with elaborate shows do this. Which is why, you'll notice, there's not much dialog with audience and not much improv anymore.
Man, I saw these guys over and over. I had there posters in my bedroom. I love them, was so nieve when I saw Simmons talking about it just being business, with sub par musicians. I will always dig there music, period. It's just Mr Wietz, suffers from the Dunning Kruger affect. Much love to all...
This is fucken great thanks for sharing I’ve got the PPV for tomorrow (I’m in Australia) but I wanted to see it from the crowd perspective and you delivered! Cheers!
@@Starman2112ofKings I hope so for their sake ! It reminds me of seeing amazing athletes long past their prime trying to compete and looking horrible. That's also why I hate going to funerals...if I respected you or cared about you....I want to remember you in your prime...not in a box wearing more make up than Paul !
Actually appreciate all of the comments in this video. I am torn. Huge fan, but a fan of the 70's and 80's up to Animalize and Revenge/Carnival of Souls. When they got back together it was special. It was something we hoped would happen. But now, no way am I paying $800 for two tickets to sit in the nose bleed to watch this current line-up. Will be interesting moving forward to see who they hire to play in the "new version" if there is one, and what new music is produced.
Don't worry about it because your wallet will be happy that you didn't get to attend and so will you so just relax and take it slow and watch some Kiss videos from the early years and it'll all be good!🤘
Everyone busting their chops. I saw them in Nashville TN and they were awesome! They're not going to sound like they did in their 20s. No lip syncing either. I could tell. Wish people would leave them alone. They came out and put on a better show than most of the groups today.
Yep. Heavily expected both of those shows to be the same thing I have seen twice since 2019 besides 3 songs being changed, but it's still pretty dissapointing. Besides all the awesome kiss related events happening around these shows, I am extremely glad I didn't spend thousands of dollars to travel to NYC for these gigs expecially if tomorrow is going to be the same thing. I hear there is something happening right after the regular show ends at the final show tomorrow involving "new technology",whatever that means but we'll see. Comedian Craig Gass also pretty much confirmed this on the recent three sides of the coin podcast. I'm sure it's nothing involving original or past members. They promised for years and undelivered as expected but it is all still pretty exciting to have the hope.... and i am very bummed im missing the experience on NYC.
For the Psycho Circus tour they had "awesome new 3D technology" and you got the paper 3D glasses when you walked in. It was cool for about a minute and that was it. Not expecting this time to be any different.
Won't be any more shows they are to old now but fair play to them for knowing when it was time to call it a day & getting off the stage unlike other bands of the same age so fair play to them...they have left us with some great songs & memories
@@davidleavitt835 its easy to spot when you know hes lip snyching . go watch any other video of this song from last 4 years and track kicks in same time and sounds exactly the same
A lot of you guys don't know the difference between pre recorded tapes and playback. Paul uses pre-recorded tapes, that means that he sings in live concert, but a tape in low volume helps him behind his voice because he's old, he's 72 years old. If he used playback, that would mean that he wouldn't sing at all, and the only thing that we would hear was going to be just an old live or studio tape. So, yes, technically, Paul does sings live.
Kiss ended when Distroyer was released. I saw Kiss Nov of 1974 , Jan. 31st with Rush and the Tubes opening , and a 3rd time in fall of 1975 all at San Francisco's Winterland Auditorium.
I care, it's great to hear from folks who were there in the band's heyday. The last KISS record I like is Love Gun. And Ace is the only thing keeping me listening...
At least they knew when it was time to call it a day & get off the stage unlike other bands who have gone on for to long thanks for the memories there will never be another kiss.....
They seemed to have missed that time in 1995, 2000, 2005. Revenge should have been the end. Last tour #17 after that. Last tour with Ace and Peter should have been the end.
You Tube KISS on Midnight Special 1975 …..and this is NOT “trolling” or “being a dick” ……what is missing now is an intangible thing. It’s a spirit a hunger a vigor some sort of magic of the moment …it’s not anyone’s fault it’s just reality All the smoke and confetti in the Universe will never BE that intangible magic
They promised a special show. This is the same shtick they've been pulling for 10 years. Could be any show from anywhere. Magic here. No spark. No excitement.
Saw them in Montreal a couple weeks ago. You might like to imagine they lip-synch. They do not. Yes, there is some evident “help” with the instruments. That is the reality of doing a huge concert in 2023.
Everyone is talking about how bad KISS sounds live and how they are prerecording vocals, but for me the most jarring thing is the lack of power in the "You Wanted the best, you got the best" beginning. Francis Steuber was really a GOAT announcer. His voice really put you into a good mood and ready for the biggest show on earth.... this guys voice is just flat. R.I.P Francis Steuber.
@@VanHalen_5150 Since 2002. Until 2020 when he passed away because of COVID. He was Paul's guitar tech. Their opening chant began with their roadie J.R Smalling saying the words. But for me Francis' version was the most iconic.
@@ajjy1110 Eddie Balandas was awesome too. Loved his introduction during KISS Alive II. But for me Francis was always the best because his voice was powerful AF. He could really just set you up for a ride that was a KISS concert.
I was half-heartingly trying to pinpoint exactly where/when it happened....It`s strange that no one ever talks about it,but I guess it really doesn`t matter now.....I`m still hurting from the pile of money I went through during the"Farewell"shows.......@@rmyers1020
I`ll give it to him,being my mother`s age and still sticking it out says a lot but I just wish he would`ve tried to take some time off,when he started down Laryngitis Lane and rehab himself back to at least 50% of where he was.....I understand that he had a lot to live up to,but,damn man....guess I`m thinkin` out loud again....@@Starman2112ofKings
Gene Simmons built a career on acting like an asshole so this is his reward. Luckily he values money over public opinion so he laughs harder in the end
ANNOUNCEMENT : They are already being replaced with the "ROBOT versions of KISS" from Kiss Meets the Phantom of the Park in 1978 ! LOL . So the "replacement band" was planned DECADES ago !!
Don’t worry people Paul and Gene will hire out their roles to actors and the kiss circus will continue. As the first fully sanctioned “tribute” band. It’ll become a stage show with rotating actors, and Paul and Gene will be in charge and still making money. Mark my words
As a fan, I'm very disappointed that they haven't changed the setlist for these last two gigs. That's pure laziness, and shows a lack of respect for the fans that have paid a lot of money to be there.
@Bullski123 yup, playing the exact same set of their most boring songs. Play Domino, play Mr Speed, play almost human, they have a huge catalog and have played the same stuff for decades.
I cant put my finger on it either. But I'm happy for Ace that he slimmed down and looks happy to be up there again! And i'm guessing Pete had some kind of surgery on his arms. Haven't seen him play this good since the 70's!
Loved them as a teen, was totally obsessed. Goodbye Kiss. It was an amazing ride

I got to see the Real Kiss on the Reunion in 96, in a small arena, bout 8000 people, it was EPIC.
I saw that tour in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
I was there. ATL. Last show I saw at The Omni.
In December of 1977 i was 14 and in the 7th row center with my friend at MSG for Kiss.
Perfect year, perfect age.

I`ll give it to him,being my mother`s age and still sticking it out says a lot but I just wish he would`ve tried to take some time off,when he started down Laryngitis Lane and rehab himself back to at least 50% of where he was.....I understand that he had a lot to live up to,but,damn man....guess I`m thinkin` out loud again....@@Starman2112ofKings
it ended decade ago
Why does everyone in the comments actually suck
It's 2023. People suck.
Because it’s TH-cam
Gene Simmons built a career on acting like an asshole so this is his reward. Luckily he values money over public opinion so he laughs harder in the end
@@ReeseChown I don't know of many rich people who didn't earn their riches without being an asshole.
@@burnout3722 Yeah I know man but I'm not even being hyperbolic-- he literally has a solo album called "ASSHOLE". He plays the heel like wrestling
ANNOUNCEMENT : They are already being replaced with the "ROBOT versions of KISS" from Kiss Meets the Phantom of the Park in 1978 ! LOL . So the "replacement band" was planned DECADES ago !!
Rip and Destroy man!!!!
Video Bob!!!!
Don’t worry people Paul and Gene will hire out their roles to actors and the kiss circus will continue. As the first fully sanctioned “tribute” band. It’ll become a stage show with rotating actors, and Paul and Gene will be in charge and still making money. Mark my words
They will have AI made.
Great show
Like only KISS can !
I was there🤘😁
As a fan, I'm very disappointed that they haven't changed the setlist for these last two gigs. That's pure laziness, and shows a lack of respect for the fans that have paid a lot of money to be there.
The show is preprogrammed. Can’t change the set list.
Too much work to change the sync tape. The whole show is very tightly locked to it.
They haven't changed the setlist for 20 years. They turned into a joke the last😢 decade.
@@leokimvideo Plus there aren't any tapes of Paul not sounding like someone stepping on a cat's tail.
They haven’t had respect for the fans for a while since they’ve been doing the whole pre-recorded track thing for years.
As a Kiss fan im disappointed that Ace and Peters make up is used on these guys Eric and Vinnie had there own
Nice!
Hey look kids! Its half of KISS!....
But complete 💩
Actually this is all of Kiss. Kiss is a band with four members and you can see on stage there are four people playing instruments
@@chattiermike140 And they have lasted the last 20 years with the same line-up...
@Bullski123 yup, playing the exact same set of their most boring songs. Play Domino, play Mr Speed, play almost human, they have a huge catalog and have played the same stuff for decades.
@@chattiermike140 You must be young, Only us who have been there from the beginning would understand.
Ace & Peter look weird. Not sure what it is. They look different
I cant put my finger on it either. But I'm happy for Ace that he slimmed down and looks happy to be up there again! And i'm guessing Pete had some kind of surgery on his arms. Haven't seen him play this good since the 70's!
😂
when I reached 14 back in 1977 I was already tired of Kiss. dont you people ever tire of the same 8 songs?
Their set is like 20 songs long
Good for you! who cares what you think or like anyway!
@snakedriverWow what a timely and relevant reference
@@WAYNESVILLE 12 of them B sides that never made it on radio.
Это че ,новый слот от png? Kiss 3D?
Very cool!! Caught the Austin show Oct 29! Got some killer kiss shows here on my page enjoy 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
It's about time Eric, play the drums, can you actually hear him?
“What ever happened to baby Jane”
For all the lame comments about how shitty kiss is, there are tens of millions of people who don’t share the sentiment as seen in these packed shows.
Sheep
Hey, I like watching things blow up, too.
They suck
@@22tremOnly sheep with deep pocketbooks may attend this Psycho Circus Clown Show! Gene $immon$ KI$$ 🤡 😂
