First of all I will say that the guys were in great form. They rocked the 8000 fans and Paul were as he alwasy is, a true frontman. It was great when he flew to the back of the arena to sing love Gun. I must say that the drum solo was much better this time. Much cooler to hear. Ace's solo I think is pretty boring. The smoke didn't smoke at first, so he had to get help from a roadie. Why couldn't he play some new and cooler riffs. I think he has to improve it a little more.
Gene's solo were great! When the blood start to get out of his mouth, the crowd went nuts. It was great to see him at the top singing God of thunder.
But my big complaint is the set-list. I I'm a die-hard Kiss fan, but I have spoken to a lot of people that went to the show who are only a "normal" Kiss fan, and they say the same as me and many others. They have to change the set-list. Cause the only difference since the last time they played in Oslo(19.6.97) are the three new songs from PC CD.(Psycho circus, Into the void and Within'). I seems that Kiss only think they have 2 good albums, the 1st one and Destroyer. What about songs like Got to choose, Parazite, She, All american man, Hotter than hell, Take me, Love her all I can etc.
But overall, it was a great show, but the 3-D wasn't very impressive. Into the void didn't seem to get much crowd response, neither did within'. Psycho was a great opener I think too.
