Set notes

-- First full-scale "Reunion" gig in the only place it could have started... The "Rock City!"
-- From a media review: "Sure, Kiss suck, but give them a little credit - they've sucked for more than 20 years. Surviving has meant the band has lived long enough to see its influence on the next generation, which perhaps explains the shocking spectacle of Billy Corgan and Sebastian Bach bonding backstage. So, OK, maybe Kiss don't suck. And in their defense it should be shouted out loud that they were one of the first bands to embrace fully the notion of rock as a show, thus putting them ahead of the curve that would soon bring us Cats and the re-emergence of Las Vegas as the new American capital" (Rolling Stone #740, David Wild).
-- Alice In Chains were late replacements for scheduled opening act, Stone Temple Pilots, who had to drop off the tour due to health reasons.

Goddman Ace is the only fucking rock star KISS ever had!

[vezonproductions]

@beautifulsarah100 But there aint no KISS without Paul either. no one can replace his voice

[Jfarr1978]

@leifpaul Its true it was nice to see everyone back together but lets face it... It didn't seem like Ace was all in it. He was lacking.... and peter's drumming became more contemporary and defined he seemed to loose all of his flourishing.

@beautifulsarah100 Original Kiss always had two rock stars & they are playing together for the first 90 seconds of the video. I love Ace but without Kiss there's no telling if he'd have made it big alone. Paul Stanley was always gonna be a Rock God, Kiss or no Kiss.

ACE,ace,ACE,ace,ACE..........

Paul never gets enough credit as a rhythm guitarist.  The mix is cool on this is really cool because you hear him playing clear as a bell.

ace is the man!!!

[leifpaul]

@MrTimjim03 then you should hear the difference in ace`s performances!!anyway ace`s anomaly album was great,and he played great after all the subpar kiss performances from 2006-2001

[MrTimjim03]

@leifpaul ive been a fan since 1975

[leifpaul]

@MrTimjim03 lol i have been a kiss fan since 1980.ace`s skills on the guitar had diminished by the reunion.same with peter on his drumming skills.i went to see them and had a great time,but you could clearly hear that ace wasnt as good as he was way before.compare this version to the alive cut and tell me that its just as good...its not

Space Ace IN THE HOUSEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!
