I will always love Kiss, my favorite band since I was 7 years old!❤
KISS still puts on an Awesome Show!! Don't stop Paul!
Paul is the best at interviews.. always entertaining and never boring..
This is the best interview I've heard with Paul. Great job. Thanks for not playing the game. And much credit to Paul for doing it.
I can’t believe you’re talking with Paul!That’s so amazing 😳
There are subtle nuances in that original line up that make it special. I was watching an old clips from Alive & Alive ll footage. I noticed that Ace didn't have a lot of gain or effects on the guitar. It was very Les Paul sounding and hardly any reverb really. When he would get into a lead passage it took effort and clarity, there was a care put into it with a distinct vibrato. He couldn't hide and it was awesome!
👈Me in 1978 as Paul Stanley 😌
You look awesome!
Are you old?
@@uzisuicide5372 lol, kinda, 57 now
Bob Rob Haha! Good job!
Excellent job!
I'll miss my favorite band .. All i can say is thank you for the greatest music that i ever listened to from the 70s till today.. Love you "KISS"!!!!!
I'm fascinated by Paul Stanley interviews, he's achieved so much in his life, he's a great vocalist, can play the guitar, has millions of adoring fans, has several platinum selling albums, has toured the world many times over, yet even after a lifetime of therapy he still comes across as incredibly insecure.
That indicates that therapy is bullcrap.
Paul's insecurity makes him so lovable ❤
Gene: "I never lose my voice" ----- Paul: "That's because he doesn't sing" - great one Paul !!!!!
tender meat on backup...
NTL75 Thanks for the interview! Love your vids!
That was a great interview, thanks for sharing it!!
That "Two Guys" circular at 0:54 Wow! I remember that "TWO GUYS" store on Merritt Blvd. in Dundalk,Maryland and when they ran this circular....Never thought I'd see it again...."Dynasty" had just come out in 79' and I got it at this Two guys after recieving this circular in the Sunpaper!!! Neato!
Outstanding interview!!!!!!
Donovan Edwards Stay out of trouble at the radio station bud🤗
This interviewer should be the measuring stick by which all interviewers are judged. He's fantastic.
I saw Kiss in Toronto and it was amazing! I highly suggest you go see them!
Great interview :)
Great interview, Pauls voice is still on point going from the AGT performance, cant wait for them to comr to Australia.
Great stand up guy! What a legend. Think about it this way. You might as well enjoy it while its here. 😀
I like your posts Nothing to Lose 75 Alive!
A rarity doesn't have to be a lesser song. I love Paul, but he buys too much into that mentality that popular automatically means better. Sometimes even great songs fall through the cracks. No one is saying you have to play 12 obscure songs in a row, but you could wedge in a great album cut or two that never got its/their due.
Glenn Page Music Yeah I don't know how he doesn't understand that considering there are artists he loves that have songs that weren't popular. I'd kill to hear some deep cuts.. just nothing from hot in the shade.
He also contradicts himself by saying there's songs from the new albums that are as good as anything they ever did, but people say "That's great, play Love Gun"
He's a used car salesman of music.
Why can't he be honest and just say they can't be bothered rehearsing any of the rarities?
So basically switch the set list up some... I agree
Paul Stanley Forever, Kiss Forever with full certainty, fantastic my heroes, Forever.
Gene will probably keep touring with his band. Ace will keep touring and writing songs.
Gene should take his top 10 or so demos from the Vault and re-record them with his solo band for a new album. His solo band is ridiculously good!
Why? His band were amazing live!
I recently saw an interview with Ace. He could barely walk and was completely deaf.
Songs? C'mon man...
Awesome!!!!!!!😁😁😁😁😁😁😁🎒🎒🎒🎒🎒🎒🎒🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Ha...one of the pics is Rich Kosak from Mr. Speed as Paul Stanley. Bravo!
Good interviewer. Asks good questions
It's about time
YOU WANT THE BEST! YOU GOT THE BEST!
I am 56 years old and live in San Diego. I have never seen Kiss but God, I've always wanted to see them in concert. Yes, I was one of those degenerate kids back in the 70's, walking around with my fist in the air and blasting Kiss music from cheap speakers. I currently work as a computer consultant and plan on seeing these guys before they pack it in for good.
At 7:34 … that is my dear friend and former band mate, Andrew French. I know because I took that picture when we played together in ALIVE II (Paul Sidoti, Andrew French, Gary Stevens & John Tate) at an outdoor show we did in Akron, OH, in 2003.
Hang it up while you still have some self respect. The voice is gone. Bow out gracefully and call it a day. Love you guys.
3:20: 30-40 pounds of gear? Kiss costumes in the beginning were the heaviest they ever would be. They got lighter and lighter over the years, but I don't think they were ever over 10-15 pounds. What is worth bragging about is wearing the boots and especially the makeup. When you've got a bead of sweat hanging on the end of your nose, or trickling into your eyes and you're trying to play guitar and you can't touch your face to wipe off the sweat, that's very tough to do.
The posters here whining/debating and the crying and hating....sheeesh! I will clear away all of the debris once and for all.
Forget this/that line-up, abilities, songs, etc, etc,..
The band is 4 guys who go city to city and play songs live. Thousands upon thousands of people go home from these shows happy. Period. That is what it is all about.
Thank you and drive safely.
You know, KISS pretty much set the bar for me for all concerts i ever saw after I saw them. There where some awesome bands and great shows but not one, Not one was ever as good as a KISS show. It was a spectacle to see a KISS show. It was something you waited for all year or for years. I've seen big Judas Priest concerts and big Iron Maiden concerts , even Metalica and these where huge shows but still not on scale with a KISS concert. The show of show's as far as I'm concerned. The standard all others tried to live up to.
Wow! "Gene likes to cry in interviews now." ~ Paul
Kiss will still be around after the end of the road tour..So I'm not sweat it!
ace is the reason why i shred guitar enough said
KISS the band goodbye 💋...
KISS...es!!!⭐
AXSS TRIBUTO OFICIAL KISS MEXICO.
Will they give AARP discounts on these tickets?
Also, is that patina growing on Psycho Circus or straight mold?
I saw them the first time they played Chicago. I was a teenager and was blown away by their show. Let’s face it, Kiss is what they are. Even they will tell you that. I don’t think I can go to the “farewell” tour because I’ll remember what they were before their egos exploded.
I would love to see a replica tour of alive 2 that was the best tour ive seen them in besides the 3d tour Imagine how good that would be with todays technoligy
I feel like this is really the end. Everyone will say there will be another show but I belief Paul when he says this is it.
Also props to the interview. GREAT
Did Paul just actually attempt to claim that the AGT performance was NOT a lip-sync?? Wow!! Talk about insulting the intelligence of your fans.
Actually, he said that they recorded it live, but lip synced on live TV. I don't blame them for that, actually performing on live TV is very unforgiving. We'll see how his voice handles a full tour. Maybe they should record a tour rehearsal and play that for the rest of the tour......... lol
@@michaelmcwhorter7096 Yeah, they just call that, “live to tape.” Bands have always done that, like you said. But the way he said it was a little confusing, I had to think for a second, ha ha But I don’t blame them. I’ve had friends have to that, even when they were in their mid-20s. You just can’t take a chance on technical glitches when going “live.” I couldn’t even tell, and I was right up watching in front. I don’t know if you’ve ever seen that, it’s a trip. The drummer was playing, but all the drums were covered with some kind of rubber like material. And nothing was mic’d, so he was just banging away playing along still.
Did you catch that last tour? The last time I saw them was around 1998. 👍🏻🎸
Can you please tell me the date to this show!
Let me go, Rock 'n' Roll
I love psycho circus!!!
I saw the (first) farewell tour. it wasn't a farewell to two former members. As Peter wasn't in the band at the time. I'm not sure if was Ace or Tommy on guitar.
Yeah, Gene is out there "kissing babies". I watched him do so last week 10 feet from me. Above all, Gene seemed appreciative that we were there and we all appreciated him being there for all of us at his soft drink promo. He scheduled one hour but stayed Four. Cool guy.
They did a free show in NOLA some years back. Only time I seen them.
I hope to see Ace live. I have seen them twice with Eric and Tommy and I have all the respect in the world for those guys, but Ace is cool and his own man. Kiss or his own band, I want to see him live in Nova Scotia.
"Kiss transcends it's members"..........Yeah, that's called a Kiss tribute band, Paul.
Steve O'Laughlin you're going to see them bring in new members to replace Gene and Paul..
BK Williams - I'm not the one who needs to "Try and keep up".... Haven't you heard of Kiss' "End of the Road" tour?
cool😎😎😎😎😎😎😝😋😘😍
Paul , Stop apologizing for the decisions and choices that were made by ALL the members of KISS . Your all very talented in your own right . It's unbelievable your still touring and preforming ! Your true fans support all of you , past and present . You've been a great front man (one of the best ever in my book) but you've been left holding the bag , explaining everyone's behavior , music choices etc. etc. . It's too bad but you've done a great job doing it all , Now you have a family a wonderful future with your art , ENJOY ! ! Thank you for the decades of music's and the best concerts ever ! ! God bless you and your family ! ! . .. 🔯 . . 👄💋
I think that the 3 years shows are very important to the fans kiss owes the fans every drop of blood sweat and tears its the last kiss show and they need to go out with a bang
i firdt sw kiss jnury 27th 78... last fifteen years. they played the sme set list..sme stage show...
Great, only there guitars have been on stage before so new costumes!
"This will be the greatest show we've ever done"..........since the last tour.................He should have retired when his voice did 12 years ago.
His voice didn't start taking a big hit til around 08-09, so about 9-10 years ago. Close though.
He sounds like a pot dealer. It’s always better than the last batch.
lol better than Cobo Hall 1975? Love Gun? I don't think so Paul. Your generic stage show with 12 video screens looks exactly the same as a Def Leppard concert.
So true
"This will be the greatest show we've ever done"..........since the last tour
Let me correct that for ye:
"This will be the greatest show we've ever done"..........until the next tour
There's always a "next" with KISS. Look for them to "franchise" the makeup and name to four rotating musicians. Think: American Menudo
Instead of leaving songs out, how about a concert - featuring each album.
1 - A collage back-drop - representing that album's art & press-shots.
2 - That era's stage.
3 - That tour's costumes & members.
4 - Paul could sing to a vocal-track - for all the high-parts he can't (now) re-produce.
5 - The band plays with a video-screen - featuring Eric Carr's & Mark St. John's parts.
6 - Inter-views & media (at intervals) - as a tribute to the past.
[Sort of like the 1995 "Convention-Tour" - though with electric instruments.]

A "excerpt" review from the Swedish newspaper (Gene Simmon's play at Gröna Lund Stockholm) Audience Ca: 5000 people
That the singer Paul Stanley fights with Kiss's most exhausting songs is widely known at this time.
It is therefore a smart move of Simmons to tour with a bunch of younger rock musicians who have their vocal voices in reserve,
Robin Keith Charlie I saw Gene and Ace last month and they were great. The drummer sang Paul’s parts and sounded great just like him years ago
If the author of that article wants to write articles in English, then he should learn how to do it correctly.
Ok, I will not try to translate the article next time. You and everyone else in the world can read Swedish? Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but everyone is also entitled to access information.
My apologies. I assumed you had copied the author word for word, due to the fact you did not state otherwise.
I, along with I'm sure everyone else appreciates your translation, so there is really no reason to get snippy with me. I was never trying to limit anyone's access to information, nor did I intend my comment to serve as an insult over your translation.
My comment was solely directed at the article's author. Albeit misguided, given the information I now possess.
Thanks for the translation.
Australia has only seen the original line up once tour be pretty cool if Ace returns for the end of the road tour
the end...which 1 is this now? I lost track now
7:50 would be an amazing to see someone like that at a Kiss show.
they should of done a rarities tour in the past with a more rare set list
you want a great stage, bring out alive 2 stage
booooooring. 2 stair cases and a drum riser. Woooo! Cool!.....NOT
That stage is long gone. Most of it was stolen while in storage. One set of the stairs were used in a warehouse to get up to the manager's office. Someone stole Gene's snake (Sam T. Serpent). There's nothing left of it at all.
you wanna know whats boring, the same old screens, a basic stage with big screens is boring, there is nothing boring about the inside cover of alive 2, bands wish they could replicate that bombastic experience
Joe GI you mean the one that was admittedly photoshopped? Go away sheep. They can replicate it no problem especially with technology today. SMFH
lmao a snowflake, are you offended by someone with an opinion? your a loser
But nobody can compare to the great Paul Stanley. You think you're better than anyone.
PROPS TO The interviewer @12:39 for asking that question. Idk if this his channel or not, but FINALLY someone asks controversial questions!
Poor Paul he has NO fucking clue that KISS DIED back in 2000 after the Farewell Tour. Then end of the road WAS in 2000 and everything after that was just a self made tribute band. RIP KISS 1973-2000
james gonzo
Agreed
The current tribute band is a joke.
Shit, they kicked ass in Japan with Ace and Eric Singer in 2002 and Paul's voice was in tip top
lol, Man if KISS died in 2000 tell me why its standing room only at their shows? They still sell out every show they play. This one will sale out every show as well. You not being in the audience isn't gonna change a thing, Wake up man, your one person outta billions.
Unholy please-
I’m just wondering how do you get the Kiss style text on the computer??
1001fonts com has a pretty close free one... Search around. Download and install the new font
The font is called DIENASTY and you can download it. Thanks for watching.
Nothintolose75 Thanks man!
Ryan S Thanks
I have been a dedicated KISS fan from the start. What I want to say is, that Paul shouldn't forget about Ace and Peter. Without them, Paul and Gene wouldn't have any fame or fortune or they would have never got to be where they are today. Don't forget your roots.
Let's be brutally honest, would Paul or Gene EVER tell the truth in public... would they ever say what is really going on behind the scenes or undersell anything they create by being totally honest?
I disagree about "rarity tracks". They may have not been a success at the time of release, but many songs have grown inside the fans along the years and will be greatly appreciated to hear.
Pretty sure that picture at 13:15 is Rich Kosak from Mr. Speed...
Same old line. Before, Paul blamed Ace and Peter for not playing different songs live but now that they're gone his excuse is different.
@Winning Grinn Why are you putting down someone you don't even know ?
@Winning Grinn I am a big fan of Paul Stanley and if you don't like it too FUCKIN BAD! I don't know why everyone PUTS Gene or Paul down ALL the time . And now I read there are some more idiots who put down Ace . WHEN IS EVERYONE GOING TO GET A LIFE KISS IS GENE , PAUL ,ERIC AND TOMMY . DEAL WITH IT!
Maureen Parsch This rendition of "KISS". Many will always remember KISS being Gene, Paul , Ace and Peter.
BasedRogue wrong
Cater TO YOUR LOYAL FANS who stuck through thick and thin. A customer who is not as interested and has not put the time, effort, love, and loyalty to the institution should not be given priority as to what the set list is! If they sit down, who cares? Be happy that you gave a bolt of joy and enthusiasm to the more rabid fans who will seemingly never see the band again!!!!
You preach importance of family. STOP THE RATIONALIZATION ! Keep it a two way relationship , Paul. I respect all that you are trying to do to stay in total performing shape, but take that extra step. We all want to love, and respect you as we have in the past, give everything, and consider everything possible, please.
We have all heard this before. They are going to tour until the day they kick it.
That wasn't the way he presented it at that time.. I remember at the time he kept saying 'OH we're quitting because we want to go out on top, blah blah blah'
I love how he says that every artist that puts on a show has KISS DNA, & takes credits for it. Even though KISS DNA is actually Alice Cooper DNA.
The Graveyard yeah I’d say a big fuck you to Paul for that one. Lol. Kiss are barely musically literate for fucks sake,has always been that way. MANY bands have run rings around them and Would barely know a single kiss song if it got wedged in their ass. Fucking Paul.

Great interview and yes the haters are just going to hate and call Paul a liar and other stuff, but it's HIS band. My all time favorite members of KISS are Ace and Peter but from reading their books and things I saw, yeah it was time to end that fiasco. Ace wouldn't show up and when he did he didn't want to do much. Peter was too busy trying to turn KISS into the Peter Criss show and even though Peter is why I play drums to this day, he can't cut it any longer and should have quit in about 1998.
As for why a 3 year tour... They are almost 70 now, they can't take a full on 200 night tour and then wrap it up. So take a couple of years to give fans all over the world time to see them one last time. The venues have to be lined up and the guys need to rest in between the different legs of the tour. Didn't Elton John just announce a similar type of thing? The current lineup of KISS has been performing together for 19 years, that fact alone should show that maybe Paul and Gene aren't as hard to get along with as people make them out to be? Eric could easily move on if he so chose, yet he has been with KISS since 1991, that's 27 years!!
The current band has been set since 2004. Rock The Nation tour. 14 years ago. You’re 5 years WAY off.
Actually, we are both wrong, in 2002 KISS toured with Aerosmith without Ace but with Peter, then after then they performed with Ace without Peter and then for the Symphony stuff they had Pete no Ace, something along those lines, who can keep up. The band you see now though officially formed in 2002 I believe which makes it 16 years - both either way, 19, 16, 14...thats much longer than the original line up lasted combined!
Ron Just Ron actually we’re both off again again. The Kiss/Aerosmith tour was 2003. Peter was brought in because the promoter wanted 3 original KISS members or no tour. Ace refused to open for Aerosmith because they use to open for KISS. So that left Peter. However, KISS played a private show in 2002 with Tommy and Eric.
@@williamthompson5504 I wonder why Paul says 19 years? That would make it 1999, maybe that's when Tommy filled in for ace on the one show? Who knows lol..
Ron Just Ron Paul seems to overshoot everything and apparently thinks he’s never made a mistake with the band. Who the heck knows what he’s thinking.
Still waiting for someone to have the balls to ask one of these guys if they're going to use backing tracks on the tour.
Respect for the interviewer, he’s patient and respectful. As far as Kiss goes...I love them but enough is enough. This final tour wasn’t really necessary to prove an obvious ending...
KISS The end of the road tour.Well,...……….Paul did sing a song on Ace's cover album.Gene will be touring with Ace in Australia.Ace is playing on the KISS cruise 2018.One and one makes two.So,......I think there's a good change that Ace will be back in KISS for this final tour!
While old legends never die ... new ones are born. Check out Tombstone Rebellion debut singles... You ... Gringo... Times Like These... Looking for trouble... Off of our soon-to-be-released debut album, Kingdom of the skull. Available now on TH-cam, iTunes, Spotify, worldwide. And look for us on tour in 2019
2014
13:02 is HILARIOUS!
It wasn't live. You can even see the pads on the drums that are used when you dont want the drums to make any sound. People that dont know anything about music dont understand.
he said it was a live performance that was taped the day before listen really really good
The End of the Road should go to three cities. Los Angeles, Detroit, and ending in New York.
It's a shame that Paul doesn't even know his audience and what they want to hear from them.
He doesn't mention about his voice, he sounds so deluded of late
Paul's only important audience is the one he faces when he looks in the mirror and always agrees with him, an over sensitive and self indulgent little man who always tells him to stay on his high horse.
WHERE do you morons get off on this????
No shit,they have been riding the same old boring set list for thirty years,I've seen them 5 times,same songs every time.The reason people don't seem to care about the new songs is because the band doesn't give a shit about them.Not that I want to hear anything off those last two garbage albums lol
Paul Stanley was the best singer of the two.
trust me stanley apart from a few songs you gotta play all the time, the rest can be played with, 80% of the audience are fans and welcome new tracks
Kiss should have been done in 1996 let's be honest, that would have been the way to do it right.
Play "We are One" Live
Didn't KISS have a farewell tour before, only to come back?
Long Live K I S S
I love KISS but I hate what I call the tribute to KISS that they are now, Ace and Peter ARE KISS they are original members who helped massively what KISS became, I hate the lack of respect they receive, stop bad mouthing them Paul, you can't erase something so important and cool as Ace and Peter so stop trying to
It is well established in the history books by not only Paul and Gene but also Ace and Peter themselves that they basically squandered their opportunity via drugs and irresponsibility. Peter can't play any more regardless due to age/physical limitations and Ace can barely keep himself standing on a stage as evidenced by Gene holding him up recently. No way can or will they be invited on the tour. Special appearances...perhaps...but not more than that.
OK....So, why don't you use your magical superpowers to get what YOU want out of a band and a situation you have NO control over. Go knock on the door to the KISS Kastle and tell them the way it ought to be? Good luck! Its amusing to see these posts by clowns like you.
Ace and Bruce are on the KISS Kruise.
Eric Carr was better than Peter... sorry not sorry
Catch the earlier Kiss shows on the tour, Paul's voice will be in better shape. On the other hand, he'll also be saving it during those shows so it may not be great there either. :/
I'm very sad. My childhood is ending.
Paul’s comment regarding the keyboardist singing along with the lead and sounding really good live... is that in reference to Aerosmith?
Stanley. couldnt carry..s.tylers scarves..stnley is very this skinned egomaniac..like little boy..he runs the kiss mchine..not gene..only reson they git back together in 96..ws money..gene n Paul. were doin kiss conventions. plyin to maybe. ten k nightly..obe of my best friends..is eric Carr's first cousin..he ws on the road...s erics rodie.drum tech..he told me mny times..eric..wnted to do some good rock songs..he hd written..with Vivian cmpbell..dio fame..stnley..thee monster. wouldnt hve it..pul..never wanted to be upstaged..even gene..if gene didn't hve his power in the band..pul..would have gotten rid of him..yers go. excyse my typos..keypg sticking..
I would suggest doing a ten date arena tour and calling it a day. I would say a stadium tour but they could never fill stadiums at this point.
The eight year retirement tour...wont catch me there
Yup i will fuck face. Ill listen to some real music
This would be the only way to please all kiss fans newer and die hard all at once include everyone who's still alive for this tour:.... And what a way to go out instyle Kiss is A Family Right Well Do Kiss Family Night At Your Guys Home Town New York
Don't go guys :'(
