I don't get all the hate that Tommy, and Eric get. Both of them are great musicians, and fans of the band. I can't imagine if you had the chance to play with KISS that you would say no. I know if I had the chance to that I would in a heart beat. I love KISS, and I love every member of the band from Gene, Paul, Ace, Peter, Eric Carr, Vinnie, Mark, Bruce, Eric Singer, and Tommy. I grew up with KISS, They are a big reason that I am who am today, and I think Eric and Tommy have pointed that out as well for themselves. I thank them both for doing it even with the hate from so called fans. They have helped to keep it going, and to keep some classics in the sets that I think Gene and Paul would never be doing otherwise. Ace and Peter are legends I'm not denying them that. But Eric and Tommy do their best to keep the original parts, while adding their style to it. I can't wait to see the show in September when they are in my town, and to finally meet 4 more of my heroes.
Tommy jumped at the chance because he was tired of being Gene's errand boy. Cleaning a rock star's toilet and washing his car gets old fast. He's still Gene's bitch but at least he gets some spotlight now.
Glad to see this back with Paul's microphone gymnastics and "do you feel alright's". They probably dropped it years ago because of his voice challenges, but this is such a big part of the KISS show for me.
@@flashboy2020 Nothing really stood out for me like I've seen on some other songs. But to me it doesn't really matter. After 45 years of giving us their best, and having been a fan since 1975, I'm just glad they're still around and giving us one helluva show. It is what it is ans from what I've seen the audience is loving it, as I am. I'm 55 and in good shape, but would never do what they do. Bottom line, move on over Paul, people will be sad when they're gone. They made my life more special, got me to play guitar at 14, and I've enjoyed the ride with all of it's up and downs. PS: Social media has destroyed the joy or rock and roll as it was in the 70's and 80's.
@@daveskritterkingdom I respect your opinion, Dave. We're both fans, doesn't mean we have to agree on everything the band does, they sure made some great music and were a killer live band.
Couldn't watch it Glad I went to the reunion tour with Ace & Peter in Toronto. Kiss was my lìfe in 77-80 but then I heard Blizzard of Oz with Randy Rhodes 😉
@@johnrobles1572 Peter didn't play double bass, wtf are you talking about. Unless you meant that just that part was a backing track. I doesn't matter, you are wrong anyway
Even though Frehley & Criss Got Veto'ed, I see that at least the big Dragon Statue from the Love gun/Alive ll stage was invited to join them on the Last Tour.
Clearly not how we want to remember KISS. Without Ace & Peter and diminished vocal. But this is KISS and they are putting on a hell of a show for the fans. Gotta take the good with the bad and enjoy.
Paul looks and sounds tired.. i hate he is ending this way. Thank God he does have the backing tracks. 67 years old and will always be the best front man ever.
Eric Singer can smoke Peter Criss on his worst day and on Peter’s best day. It’s not even close. I hosted Eric for a drum clinic at my music store back in the 90’s and he isn’t even showing half of his ability in this video. He’s just playing the part. Eric is a fantastic double kick player and can play complex time signatures and drum fills. Peter Criss is average at best.
Oh boy KISS fan since 78 KISS alive was givin to me at 5 never looked back ...KISS Army members as my self were not happy Ace not there he still scores favorite member of KISS still not there its apparent general hard rock old metal fans are going ...took my boy to Sonic boom tour told me he liked how Ace was playing I had to tell him that's not Ace its thommy thayer from a KISS TRIBUTE BAND...he also usta get Ace spaghetti
T T lol he has a replaced hip and a replaced knee. If he jumped like he used to, that would be the last show. Call the ambulance right on stage he would probably destroy the knee and dislocate the hip. You could hear him scream like never before lol
For your information, Paul and Gene are in thier 60's and Paul has had some Hip problems in the past. You try walking in Platform Boots for Years for your Fans and see how it can affect your body over the Years. Unless you've walked in their Boots,Shut Up!
Here's the thing, I know we ALL want the original lineup back together for this End of the Road tour and so do I!!! but could be the last time we hear any of these songs live so we should make the best of it, or stay home and criticize the You Tube videos.
The start was a backing track, come on people, the difference is soooooooo obvious, every song has backing tracks being played to varying degrees, the most live thing about the performance is the empty seats.
The Paul Stanley 70's Kiss act is a good tribute to the real Kiss, a bit lame in comparison, but great for those who never got to experience the real thing. The guy playing the part of Ace Frehley is quite good. Eric Singer seems to have deteriorated, he was much better than this in the Alice Cooper group and when he joined Kiss for a time in the mid 90's.
Kevin, I was replying to kissed61. He seemed real bugged by the “bongo beats” thing, which was only a tiny fraction of the solo. He says zilch about Tommy literally playing 95% of Frehley’s riffs. Just a tiny bit of hypocrisy there. Care to tell me how there’s any difference?
¿Thats it?...¿Thats the GRATE SHOW NEVER SEEN BEFORE?.....come on, MOTLEY FINAL TOUR.........Thats a real show!!!!....yes, Vince voice is gone but, at least, he does not lipsync.... these grandpas should be retired a long time ago
I think it's the lack of energy that strikes me the most. I know they are older. I get that. But, it seems like Paul is really struggling. As the lead, you can't have that. He doesn't have the presence anymore.
There's only one Kiss, one Ace, one Peter, one Gene, and one Paul. Anything else is a reproduction of the original. Tommy was incredible with Black & Blue and Eric is an amazing drummer but it's just not Kiss. There work on Sonic Boom and later records is just ok....nothing beats the original 3 records though!
It’s an incarnation of the band. From what I’ve gathered over the years, this was always Paul and Gene’s baby. Ace and Peter’s sound is unmatched, but they were hired players from the start. Not to take away their work with KISS or solo, I’ve always continued to follow them after Kiss and whatever the current lineup is doing outside of Kiss. I was always considered everything up to Alive II to be the pinnacle of their work. I’ve also enjoyed what they’ve done in the 80’s and 90’s on their own merit.
No offense to Tommy or Eric. They're great musicians and cool guys, but they are NOT Peter and Ace. If KISS wants to have a successful final tour they need to strike a deal and pay the original members. I'm confident that I speak for the fans.
Why the stupid spikes at the front of the stage? Are they that afraid of people getting close up to the for any reason? This just looks not right at all. The whole thing is a great big rip off!
You gotta believe Singer wishes he were allowed to do a more skillful drum solo than just a copy of what Peter Criss did. Criss wasn't exactly Bonham when it came to solos.
Nice to see KISS bringing back some old classics!
I don't get all the hate that Tommy, and Eric get. Both of them are great musicians, and fans of the band. I can't imagine if you had the chance to play with KISS that you would say no.

Finally one intelligent comment!!!
amen

Your comment is the best comment ever!!!!!
On point!

Awesome to pay tribute to the best part of KISS ALIVE SEPT 75

EXACTLY!
The HARDEST WORKING ROCK BAND. Pointe Finale. 😎🤘
Haters will always be jealous 😜
He still sounds like its killing him to do that part, that's how you know they are using vocal tracks.
@74 torino + Yes sir! You notice when he's singing its clear, but anything he says "live" words it is all broken up!
I'm thinking that even his between song raps are pre-recorded.
@@rmartin7558 + I don't think so, because how different the voice sounds.
Was just there!!!! So good!!

Sorry to hear that, my deepest condolences...

Looks like a great show. Everyone having a great time.
Sounds great! Can't wait, Atlanta!
Hands down best KISS tribute band touring today.
Holy shit, hilarious...
Not true. Some KISS tributes have a better Ace. Nowadays pretty much all KISS tribute bands have a better Paul.
I've seen better
It’s over now. You can come out.
In their 60s they may not sound like how they used to back then but they still rock can't wait to see them on August 24th in Saratoga Springs
Oh the haters, this is 99% better than any rock show out there. Sure looked like Paul was singing this one live.
Look closely, Dave. He's not. But if you want to believe so, go ahead.

Four years later at the tail end of the tour, I am finally replying to everyone.
Sweet video man! I'll be seeing them on the 15th
Oh Tommy! Thanks making this GREAT!
Couldn't watch it
Glad I went to the reunion tour with Ace & Peter in Toronto.
Kiss was my lìfe in 77-80 but then I heard Blizzard of Oz with Randy Rhodes 😉
Saw the Ace & Peter tour in this same venue. But now it’s time to just enjoy it because it’s over after Saturday. This was the 2nd date of the tour.
Going in April to see them in Nashville. Pumped!
How was it?
Freakin awesome!!!!!
Erics solo including '' The Catmans '' little bongo beats '' - Respect for Peter !
Dont kid yourself those were Peter's Criss backing tracks from alive album on the drums.
@@johnrobles1572 Interesting statement john

It would have been nice to somehow incorporate Carr Jam 81 into the set. That would have been a cool instrumental.
That would have been a sweet tribute to Carr
Tommy Thayer got to perform before his hometown crowd and Eric Singer recreating a classic Peter Criss drum solo.
But Peter makes music with his, Eric just bangs on them.
Espérons un concert KISS à Paris et pas seulement un festival en France!!
I think I'll save 100 bucks and just kick back at home with a cold brew and KISS Alive! on my stereo.
Me too
Robert has it right. Cheers bro !
You can do that, but I will be on the back cover of the last Alive album holding a KISS sign!
Enjoy that beer with Peter.
Thats not really live either,it was all fixed in the studio.
Clearly not how we want to remember KISS. Without Ace & Peter and diminished vocal. But this is KISS and they are putting on a hell of a show for the fans. Gotta take the good with the bad and enjoy.
Peter is still kicking ass at 93.
Smoak Stack There is no Peter sir
I got it bro,..and I think I'm going blind,..purr,fect.
'' The Catman '' used drum phasers in 76 !
Im sad ima see them in August 6 but well ima see them
Learn how to write if you're gonna write something on a public forum.
I said like i wanted 2 sir and i did im just being me and if u have a problem go fuck urself
Sell your Tix than... Lame!
I think Paul May be actually singing this one.
Definitely not
Nah it’s the same every night. He does do the middle section live, the do you feel alright bit.
After Saturday’s show, it won’t matter anymore
Tommy nailed the entire solo !!!
But his tone sux.
My fav Kiss song. Tommy Tommy SMH you almost had Ace:s solo in this song. I will give it a thumbs up tho.
And I just gave you one five years later.
Amazing
May 29 is so far away :(
Dont kid yourself those were Peter's Criss backing tracks from alive album on the drums.
Maybe, maybe not. Eric knows his stuff
Good drum solo.
Paul looks and sounds tired.. i hate he is ending this way. Thank God he does have the backing tracks. 67 years old and will always be the best front man ever.
"Thank God he does have the backing tracks". That's as sad a statement as the state of his voice.
stevedrums hahaha
Dude are you serious with the best frontman part!?!?!?!?!?! Most overrated piece of shit band ever
Kev Fitz probably overrated as your life is
stevedrums 🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻. Dude you see those. Sit and spin on them you idiot
😍😍😍😘😘😘😍😍😍😘😘😘
To everyone here complaining.....why are you here if you have problems with it?
It’s cheap entertainment for me. I’ll just reply and get them going four years later. 😎👍🏻
I believe the stage is made of drying cement
Chucky Henson That’s Genes wig
Don’t worry. Avatars are on their way
Wow, they have no more energy, I never thought I would ever say boring to a kiss show
Look at the empty seats!
I was there, it was nearly sold out.
Drum solo beer refills
I don't see any
Why the heater are looking something to criticize???
Why such a cynical dick?
Ace!!! Hold my beer. I will be right back..
And Back in Black
I also played a lot of Pac-Man
KISS rules forever!! Killer!!
Sad
Wtf!!! They kill a beautiful song!
Sounds alright to me.
NOT EVEN CLOSE TO PETER CRISS ON KISS ALIVE
Fred Wenk don’t think he is even trying to
Keep in mind that A LOT of Kiss Alive was recreated in the studio
No doubt. The double bass precision Eric forwards is far superior.
Eric Singer can smoke Peter Criss on his worst day and on Peter’s best day. It’s not even close. I hosted Eric for a drum clinic at my music store back in the 90’s and he isn’t even showing half of his ability in this video. He’s just playing the part. Eric is a fantastic double kick player and can play complex time signatures and drum fills. Peter Criss is average at best.
Let's get real . Peter could never even come close to this or attempt to try . Original lineup will always be the greatest ....!
That’s the first time I saw someone praise and slam the original line up in one sentence.
Oh boy KISS fan since 78 KISS alive was givin to me at 5 never looked back ...KISS Army members as my self were not happy Ace not there he still scores favorite member of KISS still not there its apparent general hard rock old metal fans are going ...took my boy to Sonic boom tour told me he liked how Ace was playing I had to tell him that's not Ace its thommy thayer from a KISS TRIBUTE BAND...he also usta get Ace spaghetti
He was also in Black n Blue where I first saw him play.
Sounds just like the Alive album recorded live at Cobo Hall long live the Alive album when Kiss was the best band in the world.
They all just stand there! Paul does not jump around like he used to. They all seem like they already have 1 foot in the grave.
T T lol he has a replaced hip and a replaced knee. If he jumped like he used to, that would be the last show. Call the ambulance right on stage he would probably destroy the knee and dislocate the hip. You could hear him scream like never before lol

can you grand parents do what these guys do?
TT? You're an idiot
Seriously...they are old dude. Let's see you do what they do at their age...with all that gear on

Thank you. 🙏🏻
I would rather have my teeth drilled by a North Korean dentist then go to a Kiss show today!!!
17NussbaumRoad please do and post pics.
I'll give you the name of a good one.
No it was really a SHOW!
Apparently your tooth ache was enough to watch.
Novocain is for pussys.
This one time at band camp
Love Bandcamp, for new music.
Is it me or does the chords almost sound like Schools Out by Alice Cooper
Well, they did make a whole band full of Alice Coopers.
The start was a backing track, come on people, the difference is soooooooo obvious, every song has backing tracks being played to varying degrees, the most live thing about the performance is the empty seats.
It’s worse nowadays. Ticket prices are too high
No disrespect to eric singer great drummer but there will never be another Peter criss the real catman.....
And Kiss will be done on Saturday for good.
He always sticks his arm out just before he starts the last riff to cue the click/vocal track.
fake fonz loves kiss. You have watched 1.6 million kiss videos this year. Thank you for supporting kiss
Ok. 👍🏻
@@skipst1 thanks for replying four years later.
@@thefonzkiss we’re at the tail end of the road. Better late than never
@@skipst1 See you at the 2024 Vegas residency!
Paul looks different in this video.
Maybe because he's a 100,000 years old;)
Seems to me there's more drum beats than arm movements! Bring back Peter Criss and Ace
So fast that it’s all a blur.
Paul isn’t gonna last 3 years doing this
He lasted four. And he’s done after Saturday.
I think I spotted fake frehley in this video.
And thanks for watching. You have time to watch the player named Thayer on PPV.

Eric Singer seems to have deteriorated, he was much better than this in the Alice Cooper group and when he joined Kiss for a time in the mid 90's.
I was fine with it. Seen them with Kulick/Carr and Frehley/Criss. It was a family affair this time.
Who cares if the arena is half empty? With their ticket prices they still make the money of a sold out show at normal price's..
Whoa. Maybe Paul should stick to lip syncing. That was rough.
What do you expect from a 70 year old man???
Maybe you should become a better fan.
there is a certain note paul cant hit with his voice but this song seems live to me
The best kiss line up is gene paul Eric Carr and ace !
Haven’t seen that lineup, but I saw this one, the one with Ace and Peter, and with Bruce and Eric Carr.
Kiss version of One of these days
Pink Floyd, nice!
Do you feel alright? No, you’re hurting my ears.
Hahahahaha
But you liked it, right? That’s why you were here. 😎👍🏻
This doesn't even near Peter's drumming, would even paid dime to see these clowns.
He can still play, can Peter?
Singer even has to copy Peter's drum solo , LOL
It's quite different...
Yet you say nothing about the dude that’s literally been copying, note for note, Frehley’s signature licks for HOW MANY years?!?
@@markpr73 Isn't that his job?

Copy cat hahahaha
If their doing a track for Paul he has at least of his own enough voice for the stage raps.
That wasn’t even Gene Simmons
Kiss blows
And Primus sucks.
The cover band might as well dig deep 👌
It’s over now. No worries
No Ace or Peter Criss? How can it be Kiss? I hope they have at least one more reunion for the fans. Peace.
Ace has no more technique to play and Peter is already retired. Be happy.
Oath Kiss Brother - Those who started it all should end it all
@@marcelogimenez5539 so true
Tommy and Eric have been in the band much longer. Quit living in the 70s.
Naps......the 70's is why they are here in 2019.
¿Thats it?...¿Thats the GRATE SHOW NEVER SEEN BEFORE?.....come on, MOTLEY FINAL TOUR.........Thats a real show!!!!....yes, Vince voice is gone but, at least, he does not lipsync....
these grandpas should be retired a long time ago
Vince's voice isn't gone...he never had one to begin with. Worst singer in heavy metal history
So when did Motleys final tour end? Last I checked it never ended. Don’t worry. It’s all over now for Kiss.
Is paul using lip sync in this show or not?
He is. I'm just unsure if the entire band is as well
I have always had mad respect for Eric Singer since Badlands but this solo doesn’t do his skills justice at all.
Lol that's because it's Peters solo! He's trying to recreate and Peter Chris' sux
I think it's the lack of energy that strikes me the most. I know they are older. I get that. But, it seems like Paul is really struggling. As the lead, you can't have that. He doesn't have the presence anymore.
Very obvious lots of pre-recorded tracks and triggers being used. Bring back Peter.
After Saturday night, it will be over. Peter has been retired for several years now
Boring and tired.
Really why are you here?

I bet there won’t be any empty seats for the next two shows.
Paul shouldn't do "Do you feel alright" part anymore, terrible.
He can barely talk let alone sing....
He did fine.
Not bad at all.
Quite good. 👍🏻
Lots of empty seats too....
That happens more often nowadays with the sky high prices
Look at fake Peter go
Nope that’s real Eric. Maybe fake Peter will show up when it’s avatar season.
Eric Singer > Eric Carr > Peter Criss
Peter Criss was better
Ok dumbass
Bwaaa haaa haaa
Why the stupid spikes at the front of the stage? Are they that afraid of people getting close up to the for any reason? This just looks not right at all. The whole thing is a great big rip off!
Don’t worry. It’s all over now.
Paul’s shrieking talking to the crowd is annoying as hell.
I’ll take that over AI and auto tune.

You gotta believe Singer wishes he were allowed to do a more skillful drum solo than just a copy of what Peter Criss did. Criss wasn't exactly Bonham when it came to solos.
Look up Keith Moon drum solo. I love Moons playing but his solo is awful😂
He might be able to now.
Is see a copy cat :)
Too many positive comments here for some mediocre tribute band.
It’s their band. Tribute or not.
This really sucks. Geez... I saw them in '78. This is horrible.
It wasn’t that bad. I guess you had to be there
A joke
Yep. Joking all the way to the bank.
