- “Extra” spoke with KISS at the 2018 Gamers’ Choice Awards, just a month before they embark on their final tour!
Of their choice to hit the road one last time, band member Gene Simmons emphasized that they want to “go out on top” and “with pride.” - Zábava
I've loved KISS,since I was a 14 year old teenage,and I'm 59 year's old now,and an even bigger KISS fan,and have many of their great Music CD's,and I always will be a hugh fan!!!!!!
“This is our final tour.” - Kiss, for the past two decades
The original farewell tour happened because everyone wanted Ace and Peter back in the band and they did what they always do cry and whine, so it turned into a farewell tour of the original members Gene and Paul never wanted to retire,they realized just because Ace and Peter weren't up to performing,why should they throw it all away
I am sure (hoping) this is not there last tour...
But would love to see Ace and Peter back for a true and final tour!!!
I wasn’t a big fan of rock n roll, but now I’m interested in it because of the Kiss. They are like an icon to rock n roll with their makeup and everything it’s all badass
This is the KISS Last Grasp for Cash Tour.
Our final tour they said that in 1998
The farewell tour was in the year 2000 moron!
THANKS KISS!!!! THE BEST!!!!🥰
Theyve been on their final our for 15 years! 😄
SO EXPENSIVE
Correct me if I am wrong but the spaceman ACE and Cat Chris are being impersonated by some other dudes are they not?
Tommy is dress as ace and Eric singer dress like peter
Gene is angry again he needs end the final tour and get a therapist!
Just say KISS live today. I can confirm it wasn’t their last
Thank you for the phenomenal music and the great memories!❤
You want the best, you got the best. The hottest band in the world...KISS!!!
I'm sure going to miss them performing in front of hundreds of thousands of fans. #KISSNATION4LIFE
You wanted* I think
chris robinson We are talking pure comedy gold Im going and Im not even a Kiss fan .
Kiss forever! In hearts and soul
Thanks for the likes and your comment over my post, thanks for being a fan of mine 🥰
To me the final tour was the farewell tour with the original band. Ace Paul Peter and Gene. I was at the June 28th Concert at Tiger Stadium. I know people will disagree exspecially though's who have never seen the original band. My first KISS Concert in 1974 at the age of 5 at Cobo Hall in Detroit. My final KISS Concert was The Farewell Tour at Tiger Stadium on June 28th 1996.
20 years ago i spent 100 dollars to see the original members annd that includes the ticket one program one tshirt and some meals and gasoline,because the concert was in New Mexico and live in Juarez,this time when they come to El Paso just the ticket was 108 dollars to see the half of the band and the same track list
Los amo!😘
I Like them because they are so down to earth
Going in September!!
These guys will NEVER lack self confidence.
I saw that final tour. Wanna see this year's final tour too
Hey Morten Dingbat kiss is talking about the many facets that keep the wheels of a band turning.They mean personally, professionally, musically, creatively and individually. Sooner or later Paul has come to terms with his mortality through his waning voice, for you and I know that gene being the vampire that he is lives eternally. That transition will be made gradually as he turns into the C.E.O. Of SIMMONS Records/UNIVERSAL in 2020 in L.A. and New York.
Love you guys
Thanks for the likes and your comment over my post, thanks for being a fan of mine 🥰
"The band has never been better"? Wow... Tend to disagree on that one😂
Morten Mørkholt 1992 Revenge Tour, just sayin’ ;)
Morten Morkholt Do they seriously believe there own bullshit ..
Truther 48 no, But They think that we do.
I miss Ace and peter. Not the same
Looks like Corona put a stop to this sham of a show. Without the other band members all ya got is a farce. Do they charge half price cause its not the same show? No! Kiss was at its peak when I was about ten years old. I had albums at 7. By the time I turned 12 Kiss was over for me. They broke up. The last record I bought was Peter Chris solo album right after love gun. So for all you people out there that think this is kiss you can kiss my you know what.
I don't know about the rest of you but, Eric I can accept, Tommy.... No!
But I definitely think that neither of those guys should be wearing the Cat and Space Ace make up, it just seems fake, like we are supposed to believe it's Ace and Peter
I agree! They should have come up with their own designs to be original. Not be a copy cat of someone else. To me it's like a throw in the face to Ace and Peter. Still love Gene and Paul though. I'm "Old School"! I love the original KISS. That's what I grew up with. I was glad and very fortunate to see the original KISS back in the 90's. It was AWESOME!
Wow erics speech was so emotional
Where theres a final tour, gene sees more dollar signs
their best time imo was the 1984 no makeup lineup- check out the animalize mtv concert! Paul had major pipes back then
Im going to see them in February ...but its sad how they took the face's of Peter and Ace and put them on someone else's face ...they should've just made new characters as they did with Eric and Vinnie..Bruce..would've been alot happier
Bruce never had make up
Anthony M what day
Ace leases his makeup to KISS for money so apparently he doesn't care.
@@davidk3122 because he probably doesn't have a choice..they should've made another character than the space man...Space Ace
We all know Kulick was the best guitarist they ever had anyway.
Перевод ??
"KISS explains their decision to go on final tour"
Ummm, money.
Eric's words almost made me tear up
Never been better......🤔 REVENGE????
“Y’know subtlety is not anything we do.” Gee ya think?!? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Fouth!/kiss was on family guy
Kiss “jumped the shark” when they put other guys in Ace and Peter make up. Ace and Peter should find a local Kiss tribute, hire the “Gene and Paul” and do their OWN final tour!!!
Louis Cifer Trouble is Paul and Gene are clever and Ace and Pater are dumb so they wouldn't have the know how to do it ...
Paul would have them in court hella fast,thats why the ladies call him MR.SPEED!
@@truther4851 hahaha, and it wouldn't work anyway 🤣 it only works for Gene and Paul because they have drive and determination and a willingness to do the work 😂
Did Gene's mother pass before this or after?
I actually don't know
Jonique'a Smith:Who's gene's mother?😕
Funny how Paul says that a little tour like this is the best time of KISS, there playing for half of a stadium everywhere, I think Paul forgot 1976 that when they were great
Love you guys, but you need to just let the band go. I know the that they really don't to let the magic go. And I respect that. I feel that you don't want to let KISS die, without some perfect time and perfect way you think and believe in the image that you gave birth to. It's their baby. It's their love. It's their spirit and soul , sweat, blood, and tears. But, I would lose all respect and good memories of seeing the band in, 1976 Destroyer tour August, in Greensboro, N.C. and in I think it was December of 1977 Love Gun tour. That's when they were at their best. I do understand how hard it is to let the best relationship ever. You brought life to a thought. And it became the greatest thing in music history. The over the top show you wanted, you gave it to the world over and over. Thank you and find a way to a new life and happiness. No one is ever going to top you. Never!
Bueno
Third final tour
I wish a reporter had the courage to ask Paul about using tracks DAMN IT !!!! Gene says gracefully bow out. Graceful would of been to have retired after the reunion tour. They would have saved their legacy.
I'd love to see Paul's reaction on that hhahaha
@@emiskywalker6003 yeah me to but their publicist tells the interviewer what they can and cant ask. So we will never see that reaction.
@@moonstone8205 who cares! Isn't it possible to violate that? Hhaha
🇬🇷 PERFECT SONGS LEGEND IDOLS SUPER STARS 😈☠️🤘🎸🎼🎵🎶 I LOVE KISS FOR EVER 😈 THE BEST HARD ROCK BAND KISS GOTS AMAZING GREAT 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥✨✨✨✨✨✨❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💋💋💋💋💋💋
2024
we are not sure we'll do a farewell tour ...
Top
i saw the reunion and farewell concerts kiss best chemistry was the original 4 the management and the
Kiss: reasons
Actual reason: we need to make some bank.
I think Kiss approaches the new members wearing costumes and makeup like Disneyland would towards different people wearing a Mickey Mouse or Goofy costume. Except it's Ace and Peter!
Paul,the band has been better,remember back when you could sing? That was better!
🐱🦇❤️🔥
lol kiss has had many "last tours" Its a great way to overcharge for merch and tickets.
I love these guys. They're so motivational.
Was Ace a good guitar Player ? Im not a Kiss fan and didn't know ..
@@truther4851 yeah, he is.
If u wanna to "thanks the fans" you could easily make the tickets heavy discount or whatever 🤣 u mean as a fan who has liked you for 45 years i can't get one freebie?
Come on guys. Ace is almost always ranked among the most influential guitarists of all time. You DON'T just put someone else in his makeup and costume. Not to mention that you're cheating poor Tommy Thayer, who is a great guitar player himself. Ditto with Eric Singer.
I agree. Let them pick whatever they want to look like. Racoons, chipmunks, Hummingbirds! That isnt Ace and Peter and its a disgrace!
Seriously, top of their game? It's lame to put down other acts to make yourself look better, and if is one thing they are not it is top of their game
Since when do country stars rap stars pop stars do kiss shows?
At $100 plus a ticket.....no thanks.....seen them several times years ago...,same tired show
Steve Austin Was it at all funny ? or was it boring ?
R u stone cold steve austin gimme a hell yeahh
Guys this is an interview. Plz leave the lipsync accusations for another time!
How are Thayer and Singer not embarrassed wearing Ace and Peter’s make up is beyond me. Eric Carr and Vinnie Vincent got their own look.
At this point, there are Kiss tribute bands doing it better than these guys!
Thayer and Singer , Why would they give a shit .. Its all babyish stuff ..
They probably did it cause Gene and Paul have no taste and told them too or they don't get the cash. Personally it shows they got no balls. Those other two should dress at they please and be what they want to be.
It's actually pretty cool Tommy and Eric are playing those iconic characters, after all they are fans of not just the group but mostly Ace and Peter because of the instrument's they played, what fan wouldn't want to be the character they idolized as a child rather than something that wouldn't stand out or have any impact,I don't think anyone would turn that opportunity down, Instead of criticizing them ,try to put yourself in their shoes, would you like it if someone slammed you for taking the position that was offered to you? Remember Ace voted Peter out of the group and walked away soon after, think about it and be honest with yourself, you would do it in a heartbeat and it would be a dream come true , remember all they are doing is keeping those characters alive and celebrating the history of the band , would you rather Gene and Paul pretend they didn't exist,that would be disrespectful in my opinion
Because they originally played in a kiss cover band. They cannot be themselves
No peter No Ace , that's Fake KISS
Tommy and Eric can get Gene and Paul replacements paint em up soldier on as long as Gene and Paul get payed. sad
The fact this was 2018 and they are still doing their never ending final tour is sad. And they were saying the same in 2000 and that's when they should have stopped playing and they would have gone out on top.
Well if you have a brain covid postponed it dingus
They still look like 20 haha
Jonique'a Smith:Their still young though.😉
They don't look 20
"Gracefully"😳 and "with pride"?🤔 The end of the millennium shows may have been the time to go!
they have become the embarrassment they said they didnt want to become ....20 years ago...that "top" was that long ago and it has been a downhill run since then
Kiss without Ace and Peter is Tribute Band !!!
Victory lap for their bank accounts.
Luke Cold Exactly and they are pushing it big time here in Australia so they will make a packet Im sure , When Guns n Roses came here I didn't even know that they were here .. I missed them I was so upset ..
He's not your boyfriend he's mine
This isn't the Final Farewell Tour. This is the FOURTH (4th) Farewell/End of the Road/Retirement Tour that Gene has Scheduled so far. Be on the lookout for the Next Farewell/End of the Road/Retirement Tour announced in 2025. The last and final tour will be the Funeral of Gene Simmons.
"did we lose one"?
Yeah, a full grown man in heavy makeup and costume can be "lost" 🤣
The diminutive cat man. 😣
"around the world".
Mostly europe and north America 😂
No they don’t like each other, it’s bulllshit
It’s just sad that they think they’re at the top.
For money, why else? Let's cut through the bullshit! If they were really giving the fans, and die hard fans of 40 plus years what they wanted, they would've had Ace and Peter back to close it out the way they came in. Kiss has more than enough fkn money to make all parties happy with whatever share they wanted. So Ace or Peter wanting "too much money" is conolete and utter bullshit, especially since they are the original members.
And let's cut through some more bullshit, if Eric Carr were still alive and kicking, then Eric Singer would still be a mere studio musician.
Kiss has no interest in giving fans what they REALLY want, their only interested in getting what THEY want out of all this, which is why I refuse to see another Kiss show....that and other cheapininf factors also like lip syncing to live tracks.
Hate to say it but if you go to see them you are seeing a coverband nowadays.
Would you kill for Jesus? Then who would you kill for sit in the ground with Jesus woe.
Sonof David Please explain ..
@@truther4851 word for word to establish. If they were to not put their devils aside like last time
The fuck?
Rip off garbage Paul is lip syncing
Carlos Lozada .... really
Eric is too old for you he's my boyfriend
He's To do with a cat face My boyfriend
Should of ended 25 yrs ago
Final Tour!!😂😂😂 what a joke.
They were done when Ace n peter left or shall i say were pushed out !!! i mean how could anyone work wit theses two control freaking money hungry so n so's i wonder anyway. good ridden's n trust me im no negative person but when it comes to Gene n Paul im sorry words don't even describe wat i feel about them. shame shame shame on them.
let fake Ace and fake Peter talk!
Fuck off! You're not a real KISS fan!
Purple 33 Ace and Peter are fuckwits any way so who cares lol
Purple 33 Yes but let them talk can they be as silly as Ace and Peter lol
without those FuckWits you wouldn't have any KISS Music to listen to. Maybe your A FuCkWit!@@truther4851
Let real Ace and real Peter talk more like it. Oh yeah they are not there. Tickets half price?
This is not a Final Tour, Gene and Paul are Liar !!!
No band nor its fans are more self deluded about their talent than kiss all the way to the end. Disposable performance art. Nothing more.
Well maybe Rush. Same story. Pure trash.
Kiss without Ace and Peter is a Fake Kiss
The band has never been better he says. That's a BIG load of crap right there! Gene and Paul are just two moneyhungry pricks that can't stop eventhough they haven't sounded as good as they REALLY were with Peter and Ace. Tommy and Eric are JUST replacements. Nothing more. This band should have stopped in the 90's already. People still buying tickets for them is just unbelievable.
they should've ended it after the Dynasty tour the original line up was done. Now is the time to hang it up and retire the KISS magic is done. announcing the final tour is a way fir them to stop playing on cruise ships which was their death knell. this final tour is the only way they can fill arenas again. With the makeup costumes and platform boots gene and Paul are in a seventies time warp. they're no longer the hottest band in the world. I might piss off a lot of my fellow fans but do you know what? Jimmy cracked corn and I don't care.
Who are these dikheads dressed as ace and peter
Top of their game, never been better? No, Paul. KISS should have retired in 2000 with Ace and Peter on board, they dragged the dead carcass for 21 years.
Sad and washed up, lip synching fakes. Change it to the STAYED TOO LONG AT THE PARTY TOUR.
Utter bullshit a fake tour.ace and Peter are kiss. The impostor tour.
Not kiss 🫤
