Aerosmith should open for KISS

[Jeff Clark]

I went to see KISS and Aerosmith last night. I was dissappointed with Aerosmith's performance. KISS rocked. I think most people were there to see KISS only as a lot of people left after they finished. They were a tough act to follow. Has anybody else caught this tour that feels the same way?

Have not been impressed with Tyler for many years, would still like to catch that concert, though, prolly already missed it.

I saw them in DC in August.



Exactly the opposite opinion here.



KISS performance was severly lacking



Aerosmith ROCKED! Oo.



I guess everyone has a bad night once in awhile.

I seen them Labor Day weekend at Hershey Park Stadium. While I have to admit being biased on this, KISS kicked Aerosmith's rear. I can even remember the first time I seen KISS,it was way back in 78 in Philadelphia,Judas Priest opened there. KISS rocked out and the stage show still has plenty of bang. Had to love all the gals up front with no tops on and the camera men making sure it hit the 2 big jumbotrons . Aerosmith was holding their own till they went to their new stuff for the upcoming blues album and it lacked drive or emotion.



One thing I will honestly say is the opening band that day was "Mud Island" rockers Saliva. Talk about kicking out some righteous hard rocking tunes. Man they were great and I wish they would have played more... ..... Click,Click-----BOOM... . LOL. . Andy

Saw Anthrax open for Kiss back in 89. I was there for Kiss but have to admit the show was not what it had been in the past and alot of people were gone after Anthrax. Scorpions on the other hand do the best show/sound the best live, that I've seen.

Both bands should retire.



And Metallica can stop making new music (its horrible) and continue to tour (playing black album and previous)

I've been following KISS since about '75. When Peter and Ace retired, the band improved. Although Peter could come up with some good country ballads, and their personalities fit KISS, their style was different. I like Animalized and Lick It Up. "The Elders" sounds like a lame movie track. There are a couple of Ace Les- Pauls on e-bay and the Ibanez Paul Stanley every now and then. I have a '79 Gibson Marauder hangin' on my wall now.

Aerosmith, yeah I like them too. I got some in an elevator one time!

Aerosmith rocks

Wife and I caught the 1st show at the tweeter center in mass. Kiss was cool for the 1st 4 or 5 songs,i was a big fan in the 6th grade. It got long after that,paul's voice was not good. Gene was good. After playing for an hour and a half,they finally left the stage,made Aerosmith start late,so lost out on encores. Aerosmith was at 110% that night,stevens range was pissa. The Toxic Twins were smokin'! BEst show of the summer. May go to Boston to see em again soon. will be sitting after kiss is done, i think...

RUSH RULES!!!!!



I like KISS alot, saw them a couple times. The last time was for Psycho Circus. It sounded like a train wreck. I'm glad some of the new rockers are sounding a little more like the power rock of the 80's (at least with the rythm guitar licks) Judas Priest and Iron Maiden were it when I was in school (class of 87)



I saw Rush twice. Both in small ampitheater concerts and they sounded incredible. They dont do many shows when they tour, no opening act, They will come out, play for 3 hours, and only take two short breaks. They are the most fan based band I have seen. NOONE will out drum Neal Peart and Geddy Lee is still the ugliest singer in rock. LOL
