absolute crap.
Arguably their best song! certainly my favorite.
@@canary_in_a_coalmine Mine too.
@@canary_in_a_coalmine c est toujours ma favorite DEUCE 🤸♀️🎸
Say what you want about Gene Simmons, but he always gives us a show even in a small club.
Have always said that about Gene and kiss. I've gotten all my moneys worth every time i have seen them live which is over 30 times. They put the same effort in whether. It was MSG or when I saw them play a small amphitheater in the Poconos in 2011
Yup ! But I'm still puzzled with his hairdo !?
@Lou Sekoya more like a hair don't lol.
Probably from years of dying it,and Probably hair transplants gone wrong.
I like Gene and the movies he put out. Plays a great band guy, evil. And I liked the show with his family too 👢
@@bgifford1969 lol !
Gene is the last of the original members that can still sing he sounds great here!
This is from 2015. That's why Gene sounds good.
@Music Stream Thank you!! I'm a medium Kiss fan, and was thinking all these guys sure are looking a little young for this show to be recent. 🤔🤔🤔
@coogan8825 many people who aren’t technically good singers ,guitarist who can sing and have a cool voice ,Ace is one of them .
His 78 solo album is amazing!
@Coogan shut the mouth..Ace is awesome
@@reubensane5539 Absolutely! I always viewed Hendrix, SRV and Mustaine this way. Only adds a certain charm/appeal to their work, IMHO.
That right there is the most badass thing Johnny Depp has ever done for sure
Being killed by Freddy Krueger 😂
My favorite KISS song!!! Gene still sounds great singing it…this song is full speed ahead-right from the start!!!
It's cool to see Gene encouraging Depp to really embrace the music.
That was pretty awesome, and then Johnny tried to solo at the end. His rhythm guitar was bang on, he's obviously not a lead player.
9/10 🤘
Just pure rock and roll fun. And "Deuce" NEVER gets old!!
Deuce
Gene's voice is still the same after like 30 plus years of almost constant touring...amazing!.
agree, but lets be real... his voice never had much range, so I dont thinki he will have much issues keeping it "Tuned."
Yeah, he can still sing those 2 low notes for 30+ years.
Amazing accomplishment.
@@ChrisP3000x Just because something is simple doesn't mean its easy...
@@reid1boys I find it very difficult to sing and play an instrument...I think Gene is still doing it pretty good...
@@theyoungone8872 The vocals are extremely easy. You are delusional.
No makeup,no costumes,no pyros,just pure raw and in your face rock n roll!!
Senior citizens unite!!!
Thanks, Captain Obvious!
Any more observations?
@@ChrisP3000x no Vinnie Vincent 🤣
You will never meet a nicer person in rock than Gilby Clark.
Slash was surprisingly nice when I met him.
I agree and yes slash is also a nice man and so is Johnny Depp the God of thunder he's the God damn God of Thunder he's Gene Simmons
Dave grohl?
Robin McAuley
I thought you were gonna say Simmons sarcasticly
First concert was Kiss at MSG in 1978, Gene still laying it down, still rocking.
Saw them there in '96 doing the same songs. One of the best concerts ever!!
That's one Hell of a bar band lineup. Great performance by all
Excellent!! THIS is the spirit of early KISS!! Raw, high energy and electric as fuck!! Great solos too, def had your own spin on em and it sound amazing!!
Nuno straightening out that mic for Gene was epic.
Lol I was thinking that too!
I was 3rd row at Nassau Coliseum in NY in 1996 watching KISS with Sebastián Bach hanging onto my shoulders headbanging song after song. What an amazing night. Great show. Caught Peter Criss towel after he sang Beth.
Nice! I was in first row at the Cincinnati show in 96 when they all signed the prosthetic leg on stage. It's in The Second Coming DVD.
I was in the 22nd row at Boston. A drumstick bounced off of my head and some lucky behind me got it 🤪 Best concert ever !
This kicks ass. It's so nice to see no frills rock and roll. No pyro, no backing tracks etc. They all sound fantastic.
The frills are in his pirate shirt! LOL
Depp blows hes not a guitarist.. He's a 2 cord Amber
That solo sucked...
@@ryanreally7340 lol
Nothing wrong with pyro with kiss! Looks incredible
Crazy! Gilby is just stunning. Gene sounds great & Depp just does his thing. Really good.
Couldnt say it better Jhon they kicked ass!!!!!!
They actually sound as good as Kiss good to see Gilby and johnny. Gene sounded great.
They sound much better than the current KISS.
@@chrisoakley5830 I was actually thinking the same thing.
@Chris Oakley agreed but this might not be recent.
Matt Starr is always slamming! Great, solid, drummer.
Gene Simmons is and always has been a great showman!!! He is always just electric!!! Fabulous Front man and he's very talented. I love the fact that he is still Rocking!!!
Cool to see Gene play with all those famous people
This sounds fresher, more live and a lot of fun then his “real” band has in years, if not decades.
That happens when musicians just let it rip….no backing tracks with rigid tempos….just rock and roll.
These guys are just having fun like a bunch of 14yr olds...I kinda miss being able to just have fun while playing.
If you listen to this with your eyes closed, it sounds just like KISS.❤😵👍
Sounds a lot better and I’m a KISS fan!
It is. It the KISS Reunion tour. Go ask the new Pantera lmfao
This song still stands after all these years
C est la meilleure -DEUCE 🤸♀️
He sounds great for 73 years young!!
Best musician of the bunch just stands on the side and enjoys the groove....
By a looong shot I might add!
AND? Adjusts Gene's mic stand....😏 Ain't that a bytch LOL 🤣
This performance was August 2015. That's why Gene seems next level compared to current performance level.
oh please, mr producer
You have proof of 2015 ?😏
Was gonna say, jeez Johnny Depp doesn't age! Yeah 2015 sounds right.
@@Strangewaystribute DEPP doesn't age. You probably need glasses. Go check him out on Siruisxm with JEFF BECK.. Looks like damn kid still ! 😝👍🏻
@@Strangewaystribute it IS 2015, factually.
I wonder what song Depp was playing?
Sounds GREAT! I just wish someone would've handed Nuno a guitar.
Gene killing it. Dude can phone it in if he wants but he doesn’t. All that clean living has paid off.
Gene with his battle axe ! He always does everything larger than life
Nuno is the most talented player on stage and he's the only one not playing (not that all the others didn't kill it, they absolutely did!).
Was thinking the same thing
i was hoping for a zoom in on him :)
@@judithwilber2540 I met him backstage at a Generation Axe show. What a cool and polite guy he was in person. I met a lot of folks over the years and I'd put him pretty close to the top of the cool to meet in person list.
IK...And Nuno is the "stage hand" adjusting the mic stand for Gene etc....🤔 LOL Classic!
@@Donkeys_Dad_Adam Never a fan of Extreme in the day etc. but yeah, from LOTTA resources etc? Nuno has always been known to be a class act. (Plus amazing guitar player that again, you don't hear the ego trip that some of those guys are known for.) 🤘🔥🤘
They sound fantastic!
Cool video. They sound pretty good as a a band. One bone to pick though. They should have designated who takes a guitar solo first, and then second. That way they aren't playing on top of each other sounding like cats in a blender. Lol.
So COOL! This would have been so fun to see!!! Great line up and an excellent classic KISS song!
Love that Gene and Johnny are together!
Gene sounds better than ever!!!
Gene killing it!!
I remember KISS playing in San Antonio Texas at the Convention Center console in 1977!
Very cool…great energy…thanks for sharing!!!
This, I would pay to see live!
That was just like One of the bass guitars Gene played at a concert I seen KISS at in Little Rock Arkansas way back in middle 1980s…Rock on Gene and Johnny…
Incredible!!!Great!!! Thank you very much from Madrid!!! Gracias!!!
Would rather see Gene do more stuff like this, put kiss to bed......
I’ve seen Kiss many times but this is probably one of the best renditions of my personal favorite song of theirs !
Outside of Johnny Depp playing leads in the wrong key Gilby Clarke played the iconic lead guitar solos of Ace like a champ, even when he did Paul's DO IT! Nailed
Yeah, Depp's rhythm was on point, but he sounded off key on that lead at the end.
Seeing Depp with a guitar and Nuno without is criminal.
Agreed.
It's almost criminal that you can't see people having a good time!🤷♂️
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣…..DAMN!!!
Lol!
It's a benefit.🤷♂️
I was at this show ! So good
Great upload....Gene and the rest of you were enjoying them selves!
This is the sound of rock music... Period
I'll give it to Gene he's a strong singer at his age.
[Yeah, amazing that he still does those nuances at the end of each line.]
True, though this clip is from 2015, so nearly 10 years old already.
Dude Gene Sounds Amazing!
Awesome!!!!! 🎸⭐️
Genes Voice still sounds awesome and no matter what he always brings it. Also this shows how it's not as simple to play Aces leads as a lot of people think it is.
This was so much fun!! Great event!! Til next year!! ✌️
Awesome Video!!!
This is so ridiculous it's amazing I want more please
Wow! That looks amazing!
Man Johnny and Gilby Clark what a great duo
Dude's old enough to be my dad rock harder than most bands half their age.
Awesome !!!!
🤘😎🤘🌴☀️🔥🎸🔥🎸
say what you will about Simmons... dude has a voice.
Definitely. He's always been underrated as a singer, particularly as a backup singer. He does a lot of great high harmonies on Kiss stuff over the years.
His impression of Geddy Lee always makes me smile. 🙂
Очень хорошо!
P.S. Джонни Депп вполне приличный музыкант, не потерялся среди такого состава, да и музыкальные вкусы его хороши!
Gotta say, Gene sounds great and rocks harder right here than most front men right now, even in current bands.
'AwEsOmE!' ...Gene has been my Idol since very young & Johnny ROCKS!
Oh thank you this is freaking amazing
Huge sound for a club gig!
Fabulous!!
That was amazing , I would luv to have been there!
Gene still kicks ass.
Fucking Deuce is such a bad ass song, huge memories of being a young kid and playing this Bitch on 11 every day!! Rock and Roll doesn't get any better.
That was awesome!!
This is just... WOW.... Rock at it`s finest form!
This is awesome ! Gene is fantastic 🤘
Very cool Matt. Great job.
Great Video Matt thanks for sharing, happy new year
Love this!
Always a KISS fan. Seen them countless times! Gene sounds fucking awesome still and Johnny Depp is not to be ignored as a musician anymore. You simply cannot suck and do albums with Jeff Beck and tour with Alice Cooper and Joe Perry! Time to recognize!
Awesome.
One great set !
The drummer is dead on!!! Phenomenal!!!
The real voice of kiss
Nice to see Gene actually having fun
Love how Johnny gives that bad boy a workout.❤️🎸🎶
Loved it.
Deuce is my favorite kiss song!
Gene always out there helping kids.
Great stuff, Matt!
Awesome Matt!
Omg I'd love to meet these amazing rockers! Saw Kiss 2x in 80s with and without makeup. Gene Canada please! 9ntario, Ottawa lol
That was killer!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Excellent
Love it. N.F.T. love and respect. Yours truly. Xxxx
