you wanted the best you got the best

June 27, 2011.  Abbotsford, BC.  KISS.  The site of my son's first concert.  What can I say, great first show for a kid.  The boys still know how to put on a spectacle.  Lights, pyro, fire breathing, blood spitting, it was all there.  My brother and I took him and he loved it!  Right from the first song until the encore.  They ended the show with 'Rock and Roll All Nite' and showered the entire arena with confetti from 4 giant cannons.  We were literally covered.  My brother had never seen them before and said to me that he had been waiting 31 years to see them live.

Kiss was such a huge part of our growing up that I can't help place their songs on the classics list.  When we were kids we dressed up as Kiss for Halloween.  We dressed up and put on fake concerts in the basement.  Posters, albums, tapes, hell even 8-track tapes, we had it all.  You got to hand it to Paul and Gene, they figured out early on in their career that they needed a hook.  Something to make them stand out.  Well it worked and here they are 30 plus years later and still out there, putting on a show.  And lets face it, with Kiss, its all about the show.

Gonna feature one of the tracks that I think got the crowd going the most.
