Alive!’75 is making the move into 1976 and early 1977 territory – and it all starts on December 2nd at The Sherman Theater in Stroudsburg, PA!Brand new for this Sherman show, the band members will showcase the iconic 1976 Destroyer costumes, providing a brand new visual aspect to an Alive! ‘75 performance. Additionally, Alive! ‘75 will sprinkle in various 1976 stage elements while retaining much of their trademark classic “wall of sound” backline.
“We’ve had a blast over the past three years bringing the Alive!-era to life”, says Anthony De Lucia, Jr., the Band’s manager and resident Demon. “We have a TON of repeat fans at our shows, and they’ve been asking us for more! We thought it would be great to follow the classic KISS evolutionary path into Destroyer and Rock and Roll Over territory. It’s one more way we’re keeping classic KISS alive for the ultimate classic KISS fan!”
Anthony continues: “In addition to new costumes for 2018, Alive! ‘75 will focus on delivering many of the classic 1976 and early 1977 hits from Destroyer and Rock and Roll Over, including performing complete concert sets from those early tours. You can also expect deep cuts and cult-fan favorites to find their way into our shows as we continue to strive to deliver the most complete and enjoyable classic KISS experience for the fans.”

“We have always challenged ourselves to make Alive! ‘75 something different – something more than just another KISS tribute act” says Anthony. “We have always wanted to clearly differentiate ourselves in the KISS tribute market and bring something new and interesting to the table. Something that KISS fans would want to see.”
Anthony continues: “By evolving our show into 1976 and early 1977, we can continue providing the KISS fan an opportunity to re-live and/or experience a bit of KISS-tory as it originally unfolded. We are very excited about this upcoming Sherman Theater show, and the new territory that we will cover in 2018!”
