caught the above in Tampa last night. First time for KISS as
headliners (saw them at their low ebb at donington '86) and was a good
show, but certainly not worth the $150 dollars a ticket, interesting
to note that the venue wasn't sold out (9/10 full maybe). Buckcherry
were on form playing a lot of their newer stuff. KISS played a lot of
early and relatively obscure early set but played a lot of their
classics later on. Major low point....solos....does any body go for
em? unless your name is bonzo, steve via, tommy aldrige..then please
do not attempt........
can see why the 'yanks' are waistband challenged though, at any venue
in scotland you are lucky to get a greasy burger on the way out of the
venue. here was wall to wall food joints, pizza, dogs, ribs, burgers,
steaks, anything you can think of. The first time at a gig I have seen
a bloke in front of me leaving and returning with a fully loaded
nachos tray, half way through the gig....
