Well, what can I say about the night of March 17th except that it was the
greatest freakin night of my life!!! To start off me and my mom(who by the
night's end really love the concert as much as I did)arrived from our hotel
at Mandalay Bay at 5:45 pm and spend our time looking around the place.
We even checked out the House of Blues-which was very cool. At 6:30 pm, the
doors of the Event Center opened and me and mom got our shirts and stuff and
we went to our seats. Then at 7 pm the show started with Skid Row minus their
guitarist who twisted his ankle but the band played on and did pretty well
with classics like 18 and life and Youth gone wild. Then at 8pm Uncle Ted
Nugent came on and for nearly and hour, had the joint jumpin with Cat Scratch
Fever and Stranglehold amongst other Ted classics. Then at 9pm, the lights
dimmed and that pre-start hum came on(and vibrated the place-which is a good
thing)the old and lovable war cry-ALL RIGHT LAS VEGAS-YOU WANTED THE BEST,
YOU GOT THE BEST-THE HOTTEST BAND IN THE WORLD-KISS!!!!!!!!!(after the four
gods of thunder & rock-n-roll were lowered by platform)and Detroit Rock City
started a great 2 and a 1/2 hour concert. All four members were in prime
200% percent rockin form and in great spirits that night with all of them
interacting with the audinence-from Ace's smokin solo to Gene's solo and
fire breathing to Paul's singin of Love Gun from his harness perch which was
about 5 rows from where I was sitting. But all-in-all, the show stopped being
a concert and started being a full blown party by show's end with a full
confettied Rock-N-Roll All Nite(place looked like a snow globe which was very
cool). What my mom loved the most was the great CAT MAN Peter singin the very
immortal-BETH(which I loved cause Peter livened the song up)during the encore.
Like I said-the greatest nite of my life and I hope to see them all again
before the tour ends, but one thing is certain-KISS IS ETERNAL AND THE LEGENDS
WILL NEVER DIE!!!!!!!!!!!! ROCK ON FELLOW KISS ARMY MEMBERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
