Nice review. Glad you enjoyed the show. I have seen the band twice, first in 1983, then in 1985. Wait, correction, three times total as I was able to see them in 2009 as well. That one was very special to me because I took my son. I'll never forget how that first explosion scared the crap out of him.

I'd love to see the Dead Daisies, as I think their new disc is terrific (I liked the previous one a lot too). The song Mexico is one of my favorites. Probably not the last time you'll hear this from me, but they sound exactly the way Aerosmith should be sounding today.

I could easily do without a few of the songs on the Kiss setlist. Songs like I Love It Loud, Lick It Up and Beth. I would love to see a couple of lesser known tunes, but I also know that's never gonna happen. It is what it is, and that's a spectacle to say the least.

Thanks for the feedback!

I would've liked to hear "Heaven's on Fire" on the set list, but as you said, it isn't going to happen so I just go with the flow and enjoy the set list as is.

And yes, The Dead Daisies are fantastic. I'll have a review of their new album soon.

By the way, my review got shared by Kiss on their FB page and it exploded in views, likes and shares.
