my 2 concerts for the farewell was the best kiss experiance ever.At the
first show at nisan pivillian I got there 2 hours early and painted my face
and dressed like peter criss and talked to a boy that his farther was
security (youll here more about him later) and during Skid Row there was
almost no body about 1/10 th of the crowed and I was sitting 3 row section2
and got a pick from both guitar players. when ted came out most of the crowd
came is was very bitchen it kicked ass ecspecially tommy aldridge
(drummer).when kiss show started it kicked ass i got genes ace and pauls pick
thanks to a nice rodie i met before show no peter pick yet :-( i was in the
bathroom taking of the make-up and the boy i met earlier father got peters
towl and my mom gave him 50 $ for it he and i were happy. it had make up on
the towl(kick ass).
We left for the virginia beach show and drove most of night me and my mom pulled over to sleep please consider i am only 14 years old. we got there around 5:00 a:m and parked in the v.i.p section and my that has to talk to every one started talking to a truck driver for kiss .I started bugging about kiss and ask him how much would it take for a pair of sticks and responded that he couldnt get me them and i statred asking him about eddie kannon petes drum tech.And asked him is he nice and "yeah he's a great guy" i responded "nice enough to get me a stick" he said "ill see' and i told him about how about the night before I kept on yelling his name and did not respond and said that did sound like Eddie at all.We slept in the car for a little bit and the driver went to take a shower in the backstage area and little bit lader me and my mom went to a hotel to go take a shower and checked out and came back and they told us we could not come in yet and my mom said where here to the the truck driver and they let us go back and park in the v.i.p. section cause the trucks were around there and we talked to him again and he said eddie came and i talked him and told about what you said and eddie said that Eddie wanted to give a thing of picks but wasnt able to and told me that you had your make-up like peter criss and i was mad at my mom for us not being there when Eddie was and told the truck driver to make sure tell him ill be in the front row tonight and said i will :-).It gets better.But then im getting ready for the show and and the gates open only with part of make-up on so I go in and get the signed drum heads they were selling and bought one and who do i see the truck driver and he said he told Eddie i am so happy at this point and ask wheres my mom and told him she was talking to people,he laughed and he asked me did he want him to look for him and i said yes so he went out side and looked and found her she came back and the truck driver told her what he did and both happy and she bought me kisstory and so we rushed down and finished my make up during skid row and they remembered me from the day before and snake laughed when he saw me and threw me more pics but,had a hard time catching them because my mom was putting the make-up on me and when i was thumbing through kisstory and some thing flies on ground in front me and is drum stick and my mom picks it up. later Ted came on kicked ass to but says the same things over and over.and then curtain comes down and guess who comes out EDDIE and told me to open my hand guess what it is 15 of peter green picks and i take a picture with him and get him to sign drum head and told he does nt know this means to me and how drums mean to me and smiled and said i have to go and went back in side the curtain and when the show began peter was looking around and see's me air drumming alond with detroit rock city and lol.I was shocked and could not move he looked right at me and show continued durring the small drum solo he looked at me. and durring beth i snook to the right side of stage and a said out loud durring the break of beth your doing a great job :-) and then durring rock and roll all night peter looked at me and my mom and were begging for drum sticks and mouth i cant and right after eddie comes running out with the sticks and gave the to me and gave me genes sponge he puts on the mic. and i becaome the happiest kiss fan ever im starting a web ssight and will feature every thing i got sincerely the biggest fan of the greatest drummer in the world peter criss, i will miss you guys for ever,Michael Seay
