    Got my $100 voucher.. i guess you had to use it at the end of the road only section of the store..so no record art for me. I got two shirts and some buttons. Oh well. And also, yes it was Paul's sons band not Genes as i had mentioned. I got the KISS sign from Kiss pee wee golf at RIO in Las Vegas.

    This is GENE SIMMONS from the rock band KISS. With tax time approaching I wanted to tell you about a very special program called the KISS TAX PROGRAM. Just sign your tax return over to KISS and we will send you in return a 70s retro Kiss belt buckle with certificate of authenticity and 5 Black and white pictures of KISS.

    Brian, I really appreciated this video and your willingness to share your experience of this VIP event and the concert with us. Anyone who has loved a band this long is bound to have a lot of feelings and want that one great final experience. So hard to hold onto as adults when, like you, we discover bands in our youth and they really become the soundtrack for our lives. KISS was magical to me as a child and though I lost touch with their music for a few decades, nothing really sums up the delight of my childhood more than my friends and I putting on KISS shows with our action figures, making the circa Dynasty costumes, stage, instruments, painting the figures faces, using sparklers, party poppers (which we disassembled and reloaded with tinier confetti)and smoke bombs for our “pyro” and bingo marker liquid for Gene’s blood. We burned up a few of those stages and the wigs we made for the figures, but it was well worth it. What other band could ever have inspired that? Anyway, thanks for sharing brother, I appreciate you and your heart.

    Some paid $4000, some paid $1000 and some paid $500 for the "meet the band" experience. Love them or hate them, they are a business, for sure. "A good or service is only worth what someone is willing to pay" is my motto. If you were willing to pay and you enjoyed the entire "experience", then the ultimate result is an definite, YES!

    Fantastic play by play, thank you for sharing! I'm 53, been a Kiss fan since I was a kid. Grew up with not a very nice step-father who liked to drink and take his frustrations out on me. My big brother would take my mind off things by playing his Kiss records for me and while we would look at the album cover. I was just in awe. I owe this band for keeping a smile on my face through some tough years as a kid. In hindsight, kind of wishing I maybe took the opportunity to do a VIP and thank the fellas. Thanks again for sharing this amazing experienced with us!

  • @charlesbronson5235

    Great play by play and footage my friend. They’re a money making machine. Seen them 71 times all over the planet and spent approximately 150k over the years since my first show in 1974. Brought my kids backstage compliments of Doc during the 2000 Farewell Tour. Got the leather sleeve Farewell Tour Jacket

    I've been into The Who for over 50 years & I've just got into Kiss! I watched a long interview with Paul Stanley, just recently & now I get the whole Kiss scene. Wow! I'm so impressed, I know I'm many decades late, they are absolutely amazing especially the energy they put into their shows at their ages. Also, like Paul said in the interview they wear outfits which weigh 40 + pounds, plus the platform boots - it's not like they are just performing in jeans & t-shirts - so it's more strenuous for them. This video is brilliant - Thanks for sharing your Kiss Experience

  • @caveman3021

    Thanks for sharing your experiences and taking us with you! I caught the show in Canada just before Paul got sick. Haters can hate all they want, but no one puts on a rock show like these guys! They will be missed!🤘🔥

  • @scottedwards2618

    Don't worry if you miss them. They'll be around again next year on their "20th Anniversary End Of The Road" tour.

  • @dogsnskiing656

    Glad to hear you didn't want to waste the soundcheck filming it, instead you wanted to enjoy the moment. That's old school and i love it!

  • @jayboom3918

    I worked as a stage crew member and I also did it for KISS once, my former first love in Rock Music.

  • @atatterson6992

    What a great video... thank you!

    I worked as a VIP photographer for a promoter, so I would handle bands, actors, comedians, authors and so on at the same venue and would sub on occasion at different ones. It was something I just felt dirty doing. I'd just hold my shutter down and get 4 or 5 pics each and post them all just to give people a little more and on occasion I would stall if I could tell it was a super fan or someone disabled. Most of the time I was asked to go as fast as possible.

    I have to admit I have a few issues with the absence of some spontaneity, use of backing tracks but as a fan since 1976, decided to go to the Indy show. A fun time was had. The crowd were really into it and the band were solid. I’d say Tommy had a particularly good night. I took off my musician hat and decided to enjoy it for what it is: a fun time. And it was. I’m glad this was how I finished with them live and not one of the other bad concerts I’ve seen through the years. On Saturday night, they delivered.

  • @allanfortytwo

    Great review. I did the meet and greet at the Alive 35 tour. Fun time. I saw both end of the road shows in Vancouver. I’ve been a fan for years. My first concert was the Dynasty tour in Vancouver in 1979. Keep up the good work.

  • @am2boni

    I loved your video!! You are definitely a Kiss Army Soldier!!! Thank you so much for sharing your story!!! Rock on and God bless!!!

  • @martinone9

    Saw KISS a few times in the past and met them in a record store when I was a teen,it was free back then and all four were really down to earth,Eric was the nicest.

  • @kenni123064

    Awesome shirt and fantastic choice! The most heartfelt and best singer of KISS! Peter Criss is the most underrated drummer in Rock n Roll! Thanks for the awesome clips pics and excellent commentary!

  • @rmmccarthy1240

    Sounds like it was a great time. Glad you enjoyed it.🤘
