Seeing KISS On My Birthday

I got to see my favorite band on my 28th birthday.

KISS!!

I had not seen them in 10 years (I was busy seeing other bands.).

Ace Frehley and Peter Criss were gone by this point, and Eric Singer and Tommy Thayer were there, along with original members Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley.

They had released their first studio album since 1998 the previous year, Sonic Boom, which I loved and still do as I type this in 2023.

It was great seeing my favorite band again, as it always is great.

Lots of great songs.  Great stage show.  The best.

Phenomenal way to spend my birthday, and with my Dad and cousin Zachary with me.

Set List:

  1. Modern Day Delilah (New Song)
  2. Cold Gin
  3. Let Me Go, Rock ‘N’ Roll
  4. Firehouse
  5. Say Yeah (New Song)
  6. Deuce
