While I was never a member of the Kiss Army, my 1st Kiss went like this:
Way back when the Midnight Special was on, in like 1974, KISS appeared. Well a lot of us kids saw them and were "blown away" (LOL)
Sure enough within a month we went and seen 'em in a little movie theatre in Beautiful Downtown Hammond, IN. How lucky for us. The tour was probably booked before the TV Show
Us lucky guys were about 8 rows away when Gene Simmons started spittin' blood! How Cheesy! We were rocked out!
Tickets were about $6. If that. Soon after KISS was gone, discovered by normal society and our moment in the sun was done. And our 8th row tickets were now megabucks.
Memories :)
Ditched school to get tickets. Had a big group of friends going and I painted the faces of four of them to match the band. While I was busy painting faces my boyfriend was busy drinking and by the time we got to the Fabulous Forum in Inglewood, California he was passed out in the car.
Well, I had never seen anyone that drunk so I was afraid to leave him because I was afraid he would die or something. So I missed the concert and stayed with him in the car and missed the entire concert.
When the concert was over I removed his wallet and 'he' bought me a program. Just gave that program to my sister. It's worth a few hundred dollars on EBay now. Almost 40 years ago...
Oh Detroit Rock City.
I was never into the group KISS but there was a girl down the street that was a little older than me who had her entire room covered with KISS stuff!
Strange thing was I couldn't get a KISS from her to save my life! :woohoo:
