Last night I went to KISS at the Soboba Casino in Hemet, Calif. I got to see a one of a kind show for sure.
It took me about 3 hours to get to this fucked up place to see a concert. As I am waiting on a two lane highway for an eternity I see a bunch of fire trucks and an ambulance zooming toward the "arena" (more like a fancy cattle pen). KISS is scheduled to go on at 8:00 and I finally get into Buford's field to park at about 8:15.
NICE! I am going to miss a few songs after sitting in THAT! So as I get into the Cattle Pen I see that KISS has not taken the stage yet. So I am thinking, "Well, that's pretty cool that they are waiting for us all to get in" Finally, at 9:30 Doc McGhee KISS's manager comes out and tells us that TSM Girl's own Paul Stanley has taken ill and was rushed to the hospital. :bigeyes;
Gene Simmons then takes the mike and says that Paul had a heart rate of 225 and on his way out on the stretcher told Gene to play. So Gene asks the crowd if he wants them to play. Of course the answer is yes and they played.
This was one of the best shows I have seen. At the very last minute they had to completely re-do their set list. Gene said that after 34 years he could remember the lyrics to any of Paul's songs so they were only going to do Gene's songs. This meant they were only going to do some really old songs which was pretty cool since those are the ones I know anyway. Gene kept apologizing for making mistakes in the songs, but I don't think anyone really noticed.
Not surprising that KISS would be the most professional band in the land.

Al I needed was to see Dr. Love and get a prescription of Cold gin. :supz:

Admit it Paul, you choked on someone's chode didn't you?
Thank God (for RacerX) that Gene had the class to go on.
Greg, how do you always end up at these shows where all the cool stuff goes on?
PS: I demand a bog about the first time Yngwie played in the States man.
PPS: Someone tell about the whole Buckethead meeting Yngwie incident.

Ace just recently did a TV commercial for Dunkin' Donuts.
At this pace, he'll be washed up and Lindsey Lohan's guitar player in a few months.

Paul's heart raced because he was eyeing all the fags with makeup on in the crowd. What a star trek, lord of the rings, action figure toy collecting homo cockfest

The disturbing part, is that you seem to know all of them. :bigeyes;

Although it hurt me more than you, I was forced to give you your first bit of negative karma for even mentioning KISS....let alone going to see them. You'll thank me someday.
