As I said in my previous post, this fan-shot video blows the "official" version way out of the water for a lot of reasons. But it's not perfect though. There was one MAJOR f*ckup during Ace's guitar solo. It was a moment that was embarrassing for both Ace and the fans. I know I was embarrassed watching it at home....18 years later. It comes during the section where Ace is suppose to get a hit and triggers the repeater fx. Only problem is that there was a break in the signal and Ace couldn't get anything to work. It gets to the point where he literally hits a note and walks off, clearly p*ssed off, even if the note is barely audible. It wasn't his fault. He had nothing to do with it. Just a luck of the draw kind of thing.

Another odd thing comes during Beth. Normally Peter finishes the song off with 3 successive "All Night......". We only get the first one. Not sure if Peter was p*ssed as he walked off the stage pretty fast or if he was choked up. I'm guessing it's the later. Other than those two moments, it's a pretty solid show and I liked how the set list was switched up. I didn't even bother actually looking at the Set List order when I posted it because I know it backwards and forwards. Well, I was wrong. They actually closed out the show with Rock and Roll All Night leading into the first Encore. This tripped me up. But when they come back, it made sense they would save Detroit Rock City near the end since the first show of the Reunion was taking place in Detroit of all places. I'd watch this show again for sure.

FYI, KISS is playing right now at this very moment at Sleep Train Amphitheatre in Chula Vista, just outside of San Diego, which is about a 30 minute drive from my location. They no longer play at San Diego Sports Arena, which is a shame. I was marginally interested in going and thought long and hard about whether or not it was worth it. At the end of the day, just didn't feel like drive out there for crappy seats in the middle of a monster heatwave. Others on the bill include Def Leppard, Kobra and Lotus

It's a short stint, right. Like 9 shows?
