I took a look at issue 4 of the Atom and wow did it suck!

I still think it was a bad move on DC's part to kick Byrne off the book. The sales on the first two issues were pretty good but I can't imagine that lasting long with the artist who's on the book now.

Paul Stanley Live To Win
« Result #3 on Sept 13, 2006, 9:32pm »

I just heard Paul's solo album Live To Win. It's not bad, much better than Gene's last album. If I had to compare it to any past KISS albums I would have to say it sounds similar to the Crazy Nights and Hot In The Shade albums but with a more modern sound.

I don't think it will get much attention but the KISS fans will probably like it.

KISSology Vol. 1 1974-1977

VH1 Classic Presents 'KISSology: Volume One 1974-1977'
Tuesday September 12, 3:45 pm ET

NEW YORK, Sept. 12 -- Where other bands have fan clubs, KISS has a full-fledged Army of the most rabid and loyal true believers in the world. For more than three decades, the KISS Army has wanted and demanded nothing less than the best from their band and across all those years, that's exactly what KISS has always delivered.
The biggest, baddest, most triumphant show band in rock & roll history, KISS has weathered and transcended the fads, follies and delusions of an industry based on the quick buck and the passing fancy.

In the past thirty years, a thousand musical trends and genres have come and gone and come again -- sensitive singer-songwriters, glam, metal, punk, alternative, garage, roots, new wave, goth, hardcore, grunge, industrial, techno, retro, hip-hop, teenybop pop, boy bands, girl groups, etc. etc. -- and through it all, there has always been KISS.

KISS endures because the band is archetypal, iconic, larger-than-life and louder than thunder. The band, the brand, the blood, the fire and fireworks, the spectacle, the shock and awe and wonder of it all. KISS has always given its Army the Best Rock in the World and neither side has ever settled for less. And, for all the flash and arena-sized theatricality, the core of KISS is really the music, as potent and powerful and connected to the true heart of rock & roll as any band or artist or performer of the past century.

For the KISS Army, the release this Halloween of "KISSology: Volume One 1974-1977" marks the arrival of nothing less than a Holy Grail: 6 solid hours of vintage KISS going all the way back to the deep early roots of the band's classic line-up -- Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, Ace Frehley and Peter Criss -- captured and re-mastered on 2 state-of-the-art DVDs featuring more than 70 live performances and four full concerts bundled along with unreleased tracks and never-before-seen footage.

The mind-boggling first volume of a definitive three part collection (Volumes Two and Three are being readied for release in 2007) presented by VH1 Classic, "KISSology: Volume One 1974-1977" is a showcase of pristine digitally-restored video coupled with a 5.1 audio mix to provide both stunning visual quality and powerhouse finely-detailed sound designed to meet the approval of the most demanding KISSmaniac.

"KISSology: Volume One 1974-1977" goes all the way back one of the band's earliest live performances in the New York pre-punk glam rock bar scene of the early 1970s before tracing the rocket-paced transformation of KISS into international rock gods who filled the world's largest arenas as the undisputed hottest band in the land by 1977.

A dream come true for the KISS Army, "KISSology: Volume One 1974-1977," contains seldom seen high points of KISStory including significant never- before-available material drawn from the band's own personal video vaults. In addition to four full concerts from the peak of the band's first golden era, the DVD set also features notorious television interviews, early KISS music videos and rare unreleased tracks. Included in the lavish "KISSology: Volume One 1974-1977" package are spell-binding eyewitness liner notes penned by the members of KISS themselves.

Disc One of "KISSology: Volume One 1974-1976" takes a look back at an early bar-band KISS (freshly risen from the shards of Wicked Lester) already thinking much bigger than any of their contemporaries. 1974 is covered with a live concert in Long Beach as well as KISS's televised appearances on ABC's "In Concert" and an interview/performance on "The Mike Douglas Show." By 1975, KISS was playing San Francisco's fabled Winterland, headlining NBC's "Midnight Special" and making videos for "C'mon & Love Me" and their signature "Rock and Roll All Night," all included on "KISSology." In 1976, KISS came to Detroit for an incendiary concert at the Motor City's Cobo Hall, captured on Disc One of "KISSology."

Disc Two of "KISSology" picks up the threads of 1976 with the band's interview and performance of "Black Diamond" on "So It Goes," a must-see and much-discussed interview and performance of "King of the Nighttime World" on "The Paul Lynde Halloween Special," and personal band footage from May 1976. The 1977 material on Disc Two captures the band at the pinnacle of its international fame, performing to tens of thousands of fans at the legendary Budokan Hall in Tokyo in April '77 and, a little more than a month later, headlining "Don Kirshner's Rock Concert." Disc Two closes with scorching concert footage from The Summit in Houston, Texas on September 2, 1977, showing KISS laying down the creed that still beats at the heart of the band: Rock & Roll All Night and Party Every Day!!!

KISS has recorded more gold records than any other American band in history and has sold 80+ million records throughout their career. The group has earned more than 55 gold, platinum and multi-platinum awards since receiving its first gold record for "KISS Alive!" in 1975. KISS has performed more than 3500 concerts in front of nearly eighty million fans in virtually every country on planet earth.

"KISSology Volume One 1974-1977" provides ample evidence of why KISS has lasted so long and continues to mean so much to so many millions of people. KISS is 100% dedicated to the heart and soul and power of ROCK and when the house lights go down, KISS is still the hottest band in any land.

Sounds promising.

And the funny thing is 2 of the songs on the CD weren't played at 2 of the three shows the album was supposed to be recorded at. Now, Tears are Falling was only played at the Cleveland show ( it rocked, BTW, and is my favorite version of that song) so this may not be peculiar, but neither Lovin' You nor I Still Love You were songs performed on that tour, period. At least TAF made a few set lists. My thinking is those 2 tunes were studio cuts. Which, apparantly, there's nothing wrong with as pretty much all of the first ALIVE album was re-done in the studio.

Right. I have a feeling it was a bit of both, the studio and one show. I never got to see this particular bootleg so I didn't know how different the official release was compared to it but I also wonder with all the songs they played, why the hell did they make Alive III a single cd.

I remember after the show I got on the KISS newsgroup and everyone was bitching about the 3D stuff. Then again, they seemed to bitch about almost anything so maybe I shouldn't go by those guys!

I've had it on VHS for a few years now. Combine it with the Cleveland show and you really start to wonder if all of ALIVE III was recorded in Indianapolis or in the studio. There's nothing on the album that suggests they used either show's recordings.

KISS Songs and the artists that should cover them!
« Result #13 on Jul 27, 2006, 8:00pm »

A while back on the JBF a few of us brainstormed who should cover KISS songs. I wanted to save those ideas because there were quite a few good ones.

Mike O'Brien came up with these.

Sarah McLachlan doing "Watching You"
George Michael doing "Sure Know Something"
U2 doing "Flaming Youth"
Scissor Sisters doing "God of Thunder"
Page/Plant doing "I Still Love You"
Natalie Merchant doing "Shandi"
Luscious Jackson doing "Larger Than Life"
Bob Geldof doing "Going Blind"
Prince doing either "Making Love", "Danger", or "Keep me Cummin'"
Paul McCartney doing "Hard Luck Woman" (not Rod Stewart - too obvious!)
David Byrne doing "Strutter"
Franz Ferdinand doing "Tomorrow and Tonight"
Sparks doing "Shock Me"
Wanda Jackson doing "Hooigan"
Too bad Johnny Cash is gone - I'd love to hear his "God of Thunder".
Snoop Dog doing "Cold Gin"
Heart doing "Parasite" or "Strange Ways" or "Mainline"

Brian Miller came up with these.

Soundgarden- "War Machine"
Stone Temple Pilots- "Watchin' You"
Rob Zombie- "God of Thunder" or "Almost Human"
Foo Fighters- "C'Mon & Love Me"
Velvet Revolver- " Deuce"
Audioslave- " I Want You"
Heart- "Parasite"
Sheryl Crow- " Got to Choose"
Alice in Chains- "She"
Van Halen- "Firehouse" (actually have heard this one)
Metallica- "Do You Love Me"

I came up with these.

The Who-"Love Gun"
Rush-"Black Diamond"
Ted Nugent-"Let Me Go Rock And Roll"
Queensryche-"Great Expectations"
Sammy Hagar-"Take Me"
Gwen Stefani-"See You In Your Dreams"
Evanescence-"Everytime I Look At You"
Foo Fighters-"Flaming Youth"
Cheap Trick-"Rock And Roll All Night"
Lynyrd Skynyrd-"Nothin' To Lose"
Destinys Child-"Forever"
Melissa Ethridge-"Ladies Room"
U2-"C'mon And Love Me"
Kid Rock-"Baby Driver"
Rob Zombie-"Unholy"
Deep Purple-"Lick It Up"
Green Day-"King Of The Night Time World"
Scorpions-"Heaven's On Fire"
Elton John-"Beth"
Madonna-"Sweet Pain" or "Plaster Caster"
Metallica-"God Of Thunder"
Alice Cooper-"Detroit Rock City"
Christina Aguilera-"I Stole Your Love"
Motley Crue-"Strange Ways"
Rolling Stones-"Strutter"
Iron Maiden-"100,000 Years"
Black Sabbath-"She"
Judas Priest-"Exciter"
Velvet Revolver-"War Machine"
Dio-"I Want You"
Lenny Kravitz-"Mr. Speed"
Jane's Addiction-"Calling Dr. Love"
Courtney Love-"Do You Love Me?"

Looking at some of my choices I would definitely change the Who one. I would rather choose 100,000 Years for them.

I would give She to Iron Maiden and give Love Gun to Def Leppard. I would give Comin' Home to Paul Rodgers.

KISS Detroit 1992 DVD Bootleg
« Result #14 on Jul 27, 2006, 7:46pm »

I just got this bootleg and it really shows how good of a lineup the Stanley/Singer/Kulick/Simmons was live.

The audio is fucked up on Deuce but other than that, it's pretty good.

Here's the set list.

1. Creatures of the Night
2. Deuce
3. I Just Wanna
4. Unholy
5. Parasite
6. Heaven's On Fire
7. Domino
8. Watchin' You
9. Hotter Than Hell
10. Firehouse
11. I Want You
12. Forever
13. War Machine
14. Rock and Roll All Nite
15. Lick It Up
16. Take It Off
17. Strutter
18. I Love It Loud
19. Detroit Rock City
20. Shout It Out Loud
21. God Gave Rock And Roll To You
22. Love Gun
23. Star Spangled Banner

As you can see they don't play I Still Love You or IWMFLY at this show but they played quite a few songs that didn't end up on Alive III.

That concert had a nice mix of songs. I saw the Psycho Circus tour twice and it was one of my favorite KISS tours. They pulled out all the stops with the pyros. Tons of stuff blowing up! Plus, I think I'm the only person that loved the 3-D effects. They really were well done.

Yep, that's the one. The first few songs were shown on VH1, IIRC. I remembered it being a longer show, tho. Still, compared to the 15-song sets from the mid-80's, this show was like a Greatful Dead show, eh?

2. Shout It Out Loud
3. Let Me Go Rock And Roll
4. Shock Me
5. Do You Love Me?
6. Calling Dr. Love

8. Cold Gin
9. Nothin' To Lose
10. She
11. I Was Made For Lovin' You
12. Into The Void
13. Love Gun

Not only did it air on radio it was also filmed. Another show that should be on DVD.

Probably my favorite show from the reunion on was the Halloween show in '97 or '98. Did a few rare tracks and some from Psycho Circus I do believe. It was broadcast on the radio. I've yet to find it on cd anywhere. Awesome show with an unusual longer set list.

Byrne is hated. HATED. And so are those of us who support us. I can't tell you how many message boards have guys logging in with my name and mocking me and posting bat-shit crazy stuff to make me look like a fool. Joe Zhang, too. (One of the reasons I cut that goofy bastard slack. Sure, sure, he causes more harm than good, but he means well, he's a nice guy, and he is SHIT upon by fandom as a whole. And for a shy guy like that? A guy so shy he created all those fake internet names? And now his real name is being smeared all over comic message boards? Am I the only one who is disguested by this?)

It is no secret that I hate Joe, I can't stand the guy, he is an utter prick and I'd say about 75% of the reason that JBFers have a rep as spineless "Yes Men", I do feel sorry for how badly he's been treated on the internet, but he had it coming, and I have no real pity for the guy.

I agree with that.
