When I see this, I am so happy that I managed to get autographs back in 1992 from all the band members, in a sweaty record store in Amsterdam, promoting their awesome Revenge album. It was all about the music back then 🙏🤘🏻
@@phaikyouser9499 At least for the fans is was!. And don't get me wrong, the first album I bought was Dynasty when it came out but the eighties and especially the nineties were special. The reunion was cool but since the Psycho Circus it was only milking and cashing. Btw sorry my English is not so good
My 2 cents…… This is such a cool experience that most wish they could afford! This is no different than an elaborate and expensive vacation, all that’s left is a memory and some pictures. At least Kenny has an amazing signed guitar played live by a legend as a keepsake. Why would anyone put down someone else for how they choose to spend their hard earned money! Shame on the haters!
I met Paul Stanley in 1975 when nobody knew who Kiss was (pretty much at least where i lived) and I was a 15-year-old kid and didn't have to pay hundreds of dollars for a meet and greet just hung around long enough after the show (my mom waiting for me to come out almost killed me i was so late! )and got lucky I have to say he was one of the nicest people I've ever met a true gentleman ahhh... those were the good old days when Kiss was a hungry fresh unknown band & man did they kick ass!
I still think its amazing how even after a show , there work isnt done . They still do meet and greets , sign a ton of posters and other stuff . Keep in mind those guys are in there seventies !!!!!! Thats incredible .
Newsflash! Just about every band does meet and greets and charges VIP prices. Don’t act like KISS is alone in this. It’s hard to find a band that doesn’t do it. Even Rush was doing it years ago. Good tickets at shows for major bands are a grand or more now too. It business!
I had one of his videos on my feed, it just blew me away. I had half deafness .and I m about the same age.I didn't know anyone else are even heard of some one else being half deafness. I love there music. Still listening to rock. That's something you don't out grow.
People blow money on stupid stuff. This isn’t one as it obviously made this guy happy. It’s better than the fools that blow money every day on lottery tickets cigarettes and getting drunk😂
You're so lucky!! I was lucky enough to see Paul Stanley / KISS for the first time the night before last, at The Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse in Cleveland, Ohio.🤟
You couldn't be more wrong. This tour has been record breaking crowds, stadiums overseas, sold out each night everywhere. The U.S. Dates have all been packed and sold out for much with no opening support....just a painter. What area are they not bigger at with Eric and Tommy than Peter and Ace because it sure ain't nobody n live attendance, ticket sales, merchandise. And the sonic boom and Monster were the two biggest billboard charting albums along with Psycho Circus tying Monster. 20 years this lineup has been kicking ass! Look in an old school fan from Kiss Army starting in 1976! Every album bought on release day! Seen most their tours and the End of the Road stage is the biggest and best stage production! I dig Ace and still see him live and but his albums but having him and Peter would make Kiss better in no way.
@@chadmiller4601 Give me two lists. , One with everything Ace and Peter brought to KISS . Then do the same with Tommy and Eric . Put them on the internet here for everyone to see . Then we get the REAL story .
@@Dan-cl3md my post above with many things mentioned about this lineup shows clearly one thing for sure....that Kiss did not DIE when Peter and Ace left. They were in fact dying with Peter but thankfully Anton Fig drummed for Dynasty ( except Dirty Livin) and Unmasked albums. And then when arenas weren't even half full for Creatures of the Night tour thankfully Vinnie helped write a strong handful of songs and played live to help keep them afloat because Ace quit.....history ended up repeating itself with Ace and Peter after the reunion. Peter starts out so appreciative and grateful and by 2000 had had enough. Putting a tear on his makeup like he was crying. Yeah he won the lottery twice with this second chance but wanted to throw it away. By Japan farewell leg he had to be replaced with Eric Singer. Actually that lineup was incredible..Ace, Eric, Gene and Paul. But then in 2002 Ace decides he wants to leave AGAIN..Kiss gives an apologetic Peter one more shot with the 2003 Kiss World Domination Tour but by the end of that tour Peter was through again. So from 2003 to 2023 Kiss has had a lineup that is by far the longest lasting lineup of Kiss. Kids that were Kiss fans in 2003 or 04 have literally grown up with this lineup and have graduated and gone to college or gotten married. This lineup has broke the attendance records for Kiss in all the countries they have gone to which is pretty much everything. This lineup made all 10 Kiss Kruises a sold out ship experience, this lineup had one of the first of the giant residencies in Las Vegas, 20 years together and professional, talented, and respectful of the legacy of the band's history. I'm a fan since being a kid in 76 and I still support whatever Ace releases and I go see him live. But neither him or Peter could have lasted for this multi-year final tour. And by the way before it started Kiss said it was planned to be a 3 to 4 year mega tour to get to go everywhere the band had played in the past. If you take in consideration everything had to shut down over a year from covid , they did exactly what they said and now in New York it all ends with 2 sold out Nights in Madison Square Garden. Hey bro I love all lineups of Kiss and I cherish each member and the whole history of the band.
That is great! With the signatures alone, He can get his money back. :) To me, Paul looked like he was in pain. Very stiff moving. These guys are the best. Way to go KISS!
These are so awkward...I couldn't imagine agreeing to do this. I guess some ppl will do anything if enough money is involved. I also wouldn't pay for someone's attention.
Paul's gracious towards his fans wherever he encounters them. This setting is unique in that one is assured of a meeting during the limited time available on this date and of course the guitar that would take pride of place in any Kiss or rock n roll memorabilia collection.
It’s USD $11,000. I assume $10,000 for the signed guitar and $1000 for the 2 minute meet and greet? Maybe the other way around. But it’s $11,000 total.
If you can't afford it don't do it. Simple. I did the Gene Simmons meet and greet. Would have paid double for the memories I now have with my kids there. Oh and the axe is now valued at almost double what I paid. It's called an investment. They simply do what everyone else is doing. That's their job. Wish I was talented enough to be able to do what they do. But haters gonna hate.
@jonvisser1509 Paid $6000. Like I said though, it was worth it just for the memories with my kids. He even signed and gave his "bloodied" towel to my daughter.
The funny thing is I seen one with Ace trying to sell VIP passes to back stage all for $500 ..That guy was my hero when I was a kid along with Paul who are just selling them selves for chump change .. It’s sad bottom line ..All broken old men who lost it all one way or another … I am glad buddy had fun being with Paul. And getting a guitar of his old wrinkled ass 😎 enjoy it man
cant wait for their next farewell tour. How much did this cost you anyways. Im curious on what they charge. Also if this is your hero, then good on you. Spend your money on what you want
Concert tickets are like $75 for upper-level nose bleeds, around $175 to $250 for lower prom, up to $1,200 first three rows. Meet and greet packages are $1,200 to $5,000 a person. It's way more expensive than the 80's but there is way more fireworks, pyro, lasers, stage equipment, tour buses, and trucks to haul it.
This is the only way to get a Paul or Gene autograph, buy a used stage guitar or bass. 10-12 grand then yes, he will sign a couple of things. WTF!!!!!!!!!!! A Meet n Greet 10 years ago you got an acoustic performance, 3-4 autographs per member and you could even take selfies with them. These nowadays, these are NOT M & G's at all. For $1,000 bucks all you get is a photo, an 8-10 color photo with AUTO-PENNED signitures=Not Real!! I had my photo checked out, the autographs were done by machine!! Fuckin Rip-off. O well, i learned my lesson, NEVER AGAIN!!
Because it is. I grew up listening to Kiss buying their albums and idolizing the original band. I was lucky enough to see them Twice at MSG in 97 with Ace and Peter and it was an amazing concert ! Then I saw them on the PC tour in 98. I remember getting pretty good seats and tickets were in the 60-80$ range. Once Ace and Peter left I was done with Kiss. As I've gotten older I realized it's a business and with Kiss especially Gene and Paul it's about the $$$. Pay me 10,000$-50,000$ to sign a guitar, take a few pictures and an autograph. Say something about how great the show was and I'll act like I really care about the fans too. It's ridiculous how much they make at each concert between tickets, tour shirts, meet and greets. I loved Kiss for years but I wouldn't pay 25 cents to see them now. Greed and ego is something else.
As for everything you just said:100% truth! These two guys, Paul and Gene, are just interested in padding their $$$Bank Accounts$$$! That's the way it is, with a lot of these different types of Musical Groups-It'z all 'bout dat $$$MONEY$$$!!! I've been a follower of some of these groups in the far-distant past, but now that I realize what they're all about, I avoid them like the PLAGUE! This kind of greed and evil is even found in another Genre of music, that a lot of people wouldn't even think to find it in: Southern Gospel Music! I don't know, of course, if you've ever listened to Southern Gospel Music, being that I don't know you, on a personal level. However, you've had your eyes opened, as to what goes on, and I commend you for that! I remember a story, about how a young man wanted to meet a Bass Singer, that he thought was a "Mighty Man of God". He ended up getting the shock of his life, though, when he saw this certain Bass Singer in the back of that Bass Singer's Bus...drinking, smoking, and carousing with some floozy! At that moment, he found out just what a Hypocrite that Bass Singer and his Group were! I guess I'm like you:Sick of all of the hypocrisy and Bull-Stuff, that I see in people! As for hypocrites, my only question is this: How do they live with themselves, with their conscience gnawing at 'em like that? I don't even know how they can sleep at night! Thanks for putting your text on here. It's a real eye-opener!!!
I think they take turns...Gene was probably in the other room wearing a visor and using an adding machine to tabulate the total $$$ take they fleece out of fools like this. He also probably was converting the value into shekels.
The meet and greet packages range anywhere from basic $1,000 per person in addition to concert ticket up to $5,000 per person for all day stage tour, mini concert, and meet and greet signing.
@@AlbertMoyerJrNo, even if you spend $5,000 on the ultimate VIP experience the band will NOT SIGN ANYTHING!! My buddy shelled out the 5 grand at the Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam last year and he got NOTHING SIGNED!! He was really bummed out, he said right afterwards, Never Again!!
I met KISS when I was a teenager in a in store appearance and it didn’t cost anything other than freezing my butt out in the cold waiting in line all day. I just remember that back then the band seemed much cheerful than now,Paul looks like he could care less to meet his fans now.
To me this plays out like freak show bad dream. Paul looks like a caricature of himself trying to keep his looks. I mean I get many fans do this now and spend hard earned money. Paul looks like he doesn't want to be there and going through the moves being whored out. Everyshow they go through this. I saw them as a kid in 78' first time and would have just like to met Kiss naturally if I was lucky. Seen Paul watching U2 a row over from me years ago and waved at him and he smiled back. Glad for though him he got what he wanted. Least you can pay for it now days.
"We do it for the fans." If it wasn't for the fans, we wouldn't be here. Just make sure you paid your $1000 to meet him 😳 Bahahaha, Bahahaha. That's filthy rich , right there
Hmm, let's see. A guitar worth 1500 euros or something played by an elderly playbacker who is happy to pocket 8500 euros because he lives on a name that once was and robs his fans. Yes, that's a good deal!
Thank you for posting, this is amazing!!! What a great experience, Paul's such a great person.

11 grand for 2 minutes....im in the wrong business
Can you imagine what this would cost?
Probably the same as a moderately large down payment for a loan on a car....
12k on the guitar….and worth every penny if you have it to spend!
The meet and greet packages range anywhere from basic $1,000 per person in addition to concert ticket up to $5,000 per person for all day stage tour, mini concert, and meet and greet signing.
@@AlbertMoyerJrNo, even if you spend $5,000 on the ultimate VIP experience the band
will NOT SIGN ANYTHING!! My buddy shelled out the 5 grand at the Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam last year
and he got NOTHING SIGNED!! He was really bummed out, he said right afterwards, Never Again!!
I met KISS when I was a teenager in a in store appearance and it didn’t cost anything other than freezing my butt out in the cold waiting in line all day. I just remember that back then the band seemed much cheerful than now,Paul looks like he could care less to meet his fans now.
To me this plays out like freak show bad dream. Paul looks like a caricature of himself trying to keep his looks. I mean I get many fans do this now and spend hard earned money. Paul looks like he doesn't want to be there and going through the moves being whored out. Everyshow they go through this. I saw them as a kid in 78' first time and would have just like to met Kiss naturally if I was lucky. Seen Paul watching U2 a row over from me years ago and waved at him and he smiled back. Glad for though him he got what he wanted. Least you can pay for it now days.
"We do it for the fans." If it wasn't for the fans, we wouldn't be here. Just make sure you paid your $1000 to meet him 😳 Bahahaha, Bahahaha. That's filthy rich , right there
If i were musician i would never do this meet and greets. It's disgusting
Why would grown ass men pay to meet celebrities it's beyon my mind...
and just like that Paul is 30 or 40 grand richer think he will really run away from that easy money lol
Vince Neil seems to have lost a few pounds!!
I'll bet that cost a pretty penny
Sorry almost 3. Minutes… 🤮
A bargain at $3333 a minute. lol
Hmm, let's see. A guitar worth 1500 euros or something played by an elderly playbacker who is happy to pocket 8500 euros because he lives on a name that once was and robs his fans. Yes, that's a good deal!
1500 euro?
You can buy a new iceman for about £350!
CLUELESS
He played a few riffs on a $500 iceman ..
Actually 6500. for this custom Ibanez!
MANY COPIED KISS BUT NOBODY MATCHED IT
...this is a bad, bad man. I know he's cute, but be careful ladies...
Wife asked me if I wanted a meet and greet I said naw
I'll never understand why he switched to that ridiculous bouffant wig.
Vince Neil.........
2:38 for like $5k??? Get outta here.
Good to see Vince Neil as a Kiss fan
I thought that was Vince Neil 😂😂
