  • and... where is the fucking high quality?

  • Good sized crowd.

  • with the FAKE ACE and FAKE PETER, kiss has become just a tribute band to itself.

  • @cciemail NOW you take that back just because that some people are in the REAL KISS and wear the old costumes doesn't give you the right to call them a tribute band! they are still the same old KISS just line up is different and which they had gone through before so you can't trash them because they have different people so trash some other band will ya?!

  • The bench mark of rock n roll. Pure theatre with some great rock songs....perfect.

  • i like the song better on itunes,but when it's paying live it's pretty fucking badass =)

  • Weak performance, weak solo and they didn't look into...

  • this is bad.......

  • dude, when a solo comes on, zoom in on the guitarist, not the OAP.

  • @HungryGoth this guy always zooms in on gene, regardless of whats happening. gene must give him wet panties or something.

  • 8 people accidentally thought dislike said dis-i-like

  • @hyena419 Ha ha! A comedian! That was pretty good.

  • GODDAMN this has to be the best live version i have ever seen on youtube and this is a more recent one, the ones from the 70s sound sped up for some reason, i fucking love KISS, amazing!

  • Kiss in their 60's singing has been songs of the 70's popularity greatly diminished, they rocked in their days, their music old and out dated, and hanging in there til their bitter end, Mystery of the band is long sense gone,

    they never should have unmasked, they lost what made them so great "Mystery"

  • @NLOLIN4Solar Sonic Boom rocked, I hope they keep putting out great rock and roll. Today's music sucks, KISS still knows how to put out good stuff and I'd like to see them keep doing it.

  • weird to to gene with a tent and trees behing him due to the angle the person shooting is at. the solo kinda sucks!

  • my first concert, winter of 1976 was kiss alive at market square arena in indianapolis,indiana. special guest was ac/dc, i was 12. this set the bar real high for every other concert i have ever attended ...........  MY NAME IS WOOD

  • Does anyone else think Gene sounds better now than he did back in the day?

  • @Soccerfiend02 No because he having a hard time staying in key, and as old as he is his voice is kinda getting that old man sound, they use to Rock in the 70's and early 80's I was a big fan back then, now I see them as has been's that should have quit while they was on top, now they are struggling

  • this venue seems really really small compared to everywhere else this band usally plays.

  • @blackghost1094 its outside...

  • @Travenrocks ik its outside but the stage isnt as big as other outdoor and indoor venues. iv'e been to an outdoor venue and it was like 3 times the size of this place

  • lol!gene pointed at the camra

  • I HAVE LOVED THESE GUYS SINCE 73 BUT, lets be honest its not the same band and ace and petes faces are theres and theres only ! no reason for the new men to take on the faces they had nothing to do with.

  • this is called the "new generation" KISS which means FAKE in my book.I saw the REAL KISS on the '79 Dynasty tour in St. Louis,MO when i was 12.

  • "Even tho I'm full of sin, in the end you let me in!" :-)

  • Keep It Simple Stupid!!!

  • first of all ace left than little girly ass vinnie came in with his stupid choice of makeup outfit thing and when tommy came in after ace left or did something to quit again tommy was the only one out of all the people who did that part who refreshed and learned from ace frehley and i do like tommy because he took on a big role and evan though tommy and eric arent that important as gene and paul they all support each other and i dont care what any of you say they r the best and will be the best

  • I saw this live - it was HOTTER THAN HELL baby.

  • Those speakers are fake

  • @lem1968a1 no man,they're real 4/12 speaker cabinets,just unplugged,the sound is run through amps back stage,miced and ran through offstage and onstage monitors (some of which are the "fake" speakers on stage)

  • A band I know from Kitchener ON, Canada toured with KISS in Europe, opening for them. Helix had just signed with Capital Records, and they had calls for encores.

    Helix is still rockin' - check out their site planethelixDOTcom

  • Its not kiss without Ace and Peter!!!!!

  • gene is still as great as he was back in the 70s 80s 90 2000s and now 2010 =) 5 decades of perfect gene the olny difernce from 70s gene is he got fat and older oh yea and fucked more girls XD

  • "They Callll Me...... DOCTOR LOVE"!!!! That's just Glorious!! Freakin' Outstanding!! -Bryan

  • wow this is great

  • TT aint no Ace.....

  • @dr1321 You are right. He is not Ace.... He is BETTER!! Join the living pal. This is Kiss NOW!! Ace left us remember?!? -B

  • i wish the person recording this woulda shown tommy doin some solos its like all focused on gene but o well great vid

  • I don't mind Tommy, but the more I listen the more I realise that the feeling just isn't the same. Tommy can't replicate the vibrato Ace uses.

  • @Klarkedude: True dat. Not the same. BUT the drummer and guitar player, even in the original band, were employees of Gene and Paul and it was always set up that way and Ace and Peter made less money albeit tons of cash. Anyone who played in the band could wear the makeup the bosses said, regardless of who it was. How f#$ked up was that? Well that's how it was, gotta give it up for them overall, I'd put the original 4 in the rock hall.  BTW Ace was by FAR the best musician of them.

  • I LIKE ACE AND TOMMY .TOMMY IS YOUNG BUT ACE WITH PAINT ON U COULD SEE RINKLES

  • all you people say how thayer is a fill in and needs different makeup and an ace ripoff but they had a couple different people in the band and they always had the same makeup or really close to it and he is good if you think he isnt why would they have asked him to be with them

  • Thayer sucks \\\\\

  • For the life of me I still cannot find a decent sounding live version of this song, and I have seen them all...

  • not bad for a cover band

  • @catherinewheels11 right on!!

  • Paul Back In The Day Was, DOCTOR LOVE!!!!!!!! Love This Jam! =D

  • Kiss to me is a great american band, nonetheless a chemistry and an idea that worked. I feel they overdid it a little and cvould never really capture what they once had as ace left the band. Genes amazing and he alone should handle all vocals in my opinion. Paul is just so overall bad and I hate ALL his songs, just like listening to gene. Peter too was great and a rare and great voice.

  • i'm from phillipines so i never saw KISS in person. but still worship them.Ah hah

  • I love kiss they are amazing. They played really tight on this song. I saw them in december and they were AWESOME. They played in an arena when i saw them though

  • did u ever think that they discussed that guitar solo before the concert has a band

  • You don't know much about music do you? How does a "concert have a band", btw?

  • @twistedsister64 i meant as a band, and yeah i do know alot bout music

  • saw them 2008 in germany stuttgart and i will see them this may in zurich ^^

  • KISS doesn't just push the envelope. They shred it into a million pieces and then set it on FIRE!

    KISS RULES!

    Thanks for posting!

  • kay it's not the original lineup....who the fuck cares?!?

  • Fuck you assholes!!! New kiss is still awesome!!! im gonna see them in June... cant wait!

  • come to Poland bloody bastards! : /

  • @RWG65 they are obviously good enough for your to search for and watch one of there videos. if you dont like them just fuck off and keep your comments to yourself

  • The more you assume , the more of a idiot you are.

    I wasn't searching for anything much less another hideous kiss video. There are other ways you stumble on videos here on YouTube.

    Plus this is a "COMMENTS" section dingdong, its where you leave your comments .. good or bad, regardless if it fits into your small window of acceptance.

  • AGREED !!!!

  • As anyone can tell by my screen name Ace is god to me!! With that said, Tommy is a great guitarist technically speaking. I realize Ace is not that technical. It is his feel though that makes him great. Tommy lacks feel. In my opinion Bruce Kulick is the best all around KISS has had. He had great technique, and had a good feel. However, Ace has been, is, and always will be my favorite.

  • @acerocks1974 I agree technically Bruce was the best.....But I think one of the fastest playing was Mark St John.

  • @acerocks1974  Gd point Bruce is beast

  • @acerocks1974 That statement describes me well.

  • i was at the san diego concert! GENE IS AWSM

  • KISS RULES!!!!

  • im not sure what gene did to his voice but..... it sounds better lately! haha in my opinion

  • @mgirardi1 it's called Chorus a vocal effects to cover up his aging voice he ante got any more face it,

    they have out preformed the limits of their aging voices, if you listen they are all using vocal effect

    to sound younger, Ozzy even uses it real heavy for the past 15 years, ad a little reverb ad a little chorus effect Bingo vocals sound 20 years younger, I mix a lot I recognized vocal effect when I hear them

  • i think that when Gene and/or Paul leaves Kiss will be no more, which imo is only fair, KISS rules, hope to catch them in Holland some time soon!!!

  • ok, what amp is he using and how does tommy get that badass tone on the intro?

  • @KEMTEN Gibson Les Paul my friend. Not sure what amp, but I'm pretty sure they don't use too many effects.

    By the way, to the guy that said Tommy wasn't a good replacement? Who would you have had replace Frehley? Truth be told, Ace's whole deal was his playing. He can't sing for shit. and his persona isn't that hard to replicate. Tommy does fine in my opinion.  HUGE step up from Black and Blue in the 80's

  • he uses a hughes and kettner stack

  • Tommy is such a poor pathetic replacement for Ace, I wonder what in the world is Gene and Paul thinking keeping him around. I mean, yes, he can play the guitar, but not any better than most guitarists that rewad sheet music.

  • they were thinking "lets shut the hell up of those fans who can't move on and are stuck in the past, and think they all play better than any ace replacement" :) such as urself.

  • amen my brother, love Ace but he fucked up end of story, i'm glad Paul and Gene keep the legacy alive with great musicians to back them up, i don't care what anyone says KISS still Rules!!!

  • @brulldozer no doubt man. I saw this line up in 2004, and they kicked ass! I'm sorry but in my opinion this is the best line up ever. Eric is 5 times the drummer that Peter is, and Ace was actually kinda sloppy in his later years.

    More power to you guys!!! Just makes me wonder though. When Gene and Paul decide to hang up the heels, will there still be a KISS? haha lets hope not cause they're the ones that can't be replaced or replicated!!

  • I liked Ace, but I gotta agree, he's not the same guy he was when KISS was in their hayday. Peter was great, but again, Eric has so much more talent. Pete was a big-band drummer, but Eric, having bands like Alice Cooper and Black Sabbath under his belt, has definately made him a better drummer.

  • @SuperMike82

    But let's not forget that They are both playing the parts note for note of their predecessors. I've seen them many times and they have been awesome every time, but it's not the same as when Criss and Frehley were with them. If you love this, you'd shit your pants if you saw the original 4.

  • KISS can get talent, he is a great guitarist, is was well known for his single work before joining

  • tommy

  • I'm seeeing them on December 1st! I can't wait!!

  • Pittsburgh December 13... I AM THERE!!!!

  • hate to tell ya man..Eric unfortunately passed away in 91. Bruce has his own solo career.

    Eric Singer(drummer) and Tommy Thayer(guitarist) wear the makeup because the fans like seeing the band in that makeup.

  • why do eric carr & bruce kulick use ace & peters costumes ? why don't they get there own cartoon characters?

  • I think they did...for the time they did use makeup...because most of the 80s was part of the no makeup era...if i remember correctly

  • eric carr used make up, the fox. but bruce never used it.

  • WOO-HOO they're coming here november 22nd

    MUST C KISS!

  • wow that crowd is weak

  • WE ARE KISS!!

  • i like this song

  • LOL @ 33LB i agree

  • Comment removed

  • this is his song though...

  • just because he's doing the lead vocal doesn't mean the camera should focus on him all the time. when the solo is being played, i like to see the lead guitarist... not gene doing poses.

    it's just that i've noticed that in kiss videos in general, the camera men seem to have a hard-on for gene simmons. he might be the most visually striking member, but he's not a great musician, so i like to see the other band members too.

  • i think the camera was just some guy in the audience, not a proffesional one

  • so? he's still a dumbass for thinking that gene is the only guy in the band.

  • dir di dir

  • Thayer brings some pop to this riff though....

  • What would you expect from a bunch of 60/almost 60-year olds? They still kick ass!

  • Destroyer was my first KISS album I bought when I was 12. I miss the glory days as much as anybody, but folks, this is KISS now. Ace and Peter ain't coming back. So to borrow some lyrics, you have to love 'em or leave 'em. Can't keep living 30 years in the past.

  • "Can't keep living 30 years in the past. " My hairline told me that.... :(

  • @tonygrimsley Im a yong kiss fan and just feel lucky eneough that they are still going in my days! Rock on!

  • @tonygrimsley Bullshit!  I can live anywhere I want where KISS is concerned, and while they are still great, they are a fraction of what they were "in the day" with Peter and Ace.

  • @tonygrimsley what song is that from

  • @zbulldog1 Love Em and Leave Em from Rock and Roll Over

  • @tonygrimsley what song is that from

  • OHIO LOVES KISS Great song

  • So, at this juncture, is this the complete, real KISS lineup? I can't tell...I've been drinking a little. But, that looks like Ace. I don't keep up with KISS as much as I should. So don't take offense, guys.

  • nope. it's Paul & Gene with their guitar tech (Thommy Thayer) wearing Ace makeup and their 90's drummer Eric Singer wearing Criss makeup.

  • haha i agree.

    Thayer was a tech.

  • Tommy was their tour manager -_-

  • Thommy Thayer IS a real member of the band, not just a fill in... and does a hell of a good job!

  • @wetterisbetter

    he's also a Ace ripp off, i think it would be cooler if he had other make-up.

    He's not Ace why he wears the make-up from Ace than?

  • @wetterisbetter no he isn't... he is a fill in and he sucks ass.

  • @wetterisbetter Amen! I'm tired of people bashing Tommy. He's one of the coolest people I've had the pleasure of meeting. Gene's a little strange but really chill and Paul is pretty chill too. Never got to meet Peter though.

  • @wetterisbetter The real member is Ace he was with KISS since they started Tommy is the member of the band NOW he is NOT fill in.

  • @wetterisbetter Agree, Ace was Shitcanned for being a fucking drug addict.........

  • @wetterisbetter i agree!

  • It's Tommy Thayer as the spaceman and Eric Singer as the catman.This. is and has been the lineup since 2004

  • i don't think thats ace, hairs to short

  • Its not

  • it hasnt been ace since 2001.

  • Nice love this song! kick ass

  • melhor banda do mundo de todos os tempos, não se discute. é pura alegria, venham tomar cafá aqui em casa kiss...................

  • Best band in the world!

  • Paul is barely playing :/

  • paul plays, but he is more of a showman and lead singer, but u can hear him

  • ROCK n ROll .. KISS.. party all nite with the best.. genes the best love ya! ohio fans!

  • ace and peter were too old to keep up the pace of a world tour so they gave it up. Although ACE now has a solo tour. Ace and Gene just dont get along.

  • Kinda funny with the lineup. How would you feel dressing up as someone else?

    I'm a Kiss fan as much as the next guy, but Gene Simmons is a serious arrogant asswipe. I cant believe Paul Stanley actually stayed with the guy. They must pay the new lineup enough to keep their mouth shut lol.

  • i couldn't agree more. kiss is great, but gene is an arrogant cock

  • This band is the greatest ! i could listen to them all day ! Gene can sing pretty good !

  • I used to criticize the lineup change, but they are doing a damn good job.

  • is asome but who da hell plays drums?????

  • mr e. singer

  • who plays drums now?

  • Eric Singer

  • so r u the real ace frehley? or is this just your utube name?

  • just my youtube name.ace's account is acefrehleyofficial.

  • eric singer. also played with them on the Revenge album

  • they didnt get ace during the solo :(

  • it isnt ace

  • Oh my god, I love this HOT BAND!!!

    They're GREAT!!!

  • y do u guys criticize these guys? i guarantee u dnt hav wat it takes to get up there so shut up

  • this guitar player nailed the same shitty sound ace gets live, but i still love these guys! lol

  • I thought Eric Carr's "Fox" makeup looked really cool. I think I may have seen a photo or two of the awful "Hawk" makeup. As for Singer and Thayer donning the "Cat" and "Spaceman" personas, It's o.k. but would still love to see the originals one last time in concert!

  • Eric Singer is a damned solid drummer tho. he just plays so effortlessly. he was in the Alice Cooper band before joining KISS :) & he looks good in the Cat face.

    I miss Ace Frehley! Ace is such a sweet quirky dude, he rocks during interviews..hehe

  • I agree. They are probably a tighter band than ever and I'm sure Paul and Gene don't miss the drama!

  • yup. KISS is 1 of those amazing bands that dont seem to lose their kickass quality despite the numerous changes in the band. maybe coz Paul & Gene hold it all together with their vision & clear idea of where they want the band to go

  • wheres the fire at??? KISS isn't KISS without fire

  • KISS would be good if they gave eric singer and tommy thayer new makeup designs... i have some REALLY good ideas for thayer andsingers makeup design...

    thayer good have a spider-ish design on his face and he could be called tommy "the spider" thayer..

    and eric singer could have a hawk-ish looking design on his face and he could be the hawk in the band...

    gene should give them new makeup instead of sleeping with all those women...

  • sorry i didnt mean to say they'd be good i ment to say theyed be better... lol

  • They already tried to do the Hawk, with Eric Carr. It came out looking like a giant chicken. Carr said that if he came out in that costume and people threw bottles at him, he wouldn't blame them. Personally, I like seeing the cat and spaceman up there.

  • Great idea! Maybe Gene & Paul would consider it.Hopefully.

  • you have to admit though, eric singer is a pretty good replacement for peter criss

  • Singer kicks Peters ass. I just always loved the orginal line up. Plus no one can touch Eric Carr.

  • so right

  • thats right

  • I would say the "new" guys don't do that bad! But in every band there is nothing like the original line-up! (For ex. Queen what are they without Freddie and John?)

  • You got the point mate, the do just fine, but they dont kick ass like everybody says

  • tommy is very good replacer, but ace is always nr 1

  • you have me, i have never heard of tommy thayer, all i know he had his own act called black and blue, but eric singer was with the band after eric carr passed on. i thought it was the original lineup, Im going to see them at casin rama in july, i hope its still a good show.

  • Agreed Tommy is amazing

    Although ace was pretty good.

  • you're retarded. ace is one of the reasons kiss is kiss. kiss is a lie now

  • Although, I agree with you. Without Ace KISS wouldn't of been what they are you need to accept the fact he's gone and I don't know why you can't just love KISS no matter what. In my opinion you're not a fan if you say they are a "lie" after oen member is gone. I am a huge DEF LEPPARD fan and just because Steve Clark died in 1991 and people say they lost their hard rock roots after that, I'm still a fan of them...a huge one at that!

  • great cover band!!

  • this is not a cover band

  • all u ace and peter fans go fuck urself..they fuck up thats y they are out...they are drug fucked idiots and they almost destroyed kiss in the 70's...ace isnt half of what tommy is and my 3 yrd old bro plays better than peter..face the truth or fuck off

  • fuck u u piece of shit u u show respect to the real spaceman. Who the fuck is this tommy guy?

  • KISS IN BRAZIL!!!

    7 , 8 April 2009!!!!

  • KISS ALIVE 35 IN PERU 21 ABRIL
