KISS In Vancouver: Millennium TV Show Tapings
From: Lorne Joseph
Mellenium Shoot. Sept.29th 1998
I had the privilege of going on the set of Millenium today to see what was happening on the shoot. Here's the details. The band plays the song Psycho Circus in full make up. The stage for the scene is really cool. The KISS logo is in the background. It's the logo from the Alive 1 tour. Peter's drum kit is the Destroyer drum kit. ( I actually got to touch it). The stage they used is the Alive 1 stage. Gene plays his axe. Peter, Paul and Ace all have cameos in the show in make up but it is not kiss make up. Gene only appears in the club shot. The stage looked very halloweenish with ghosts and skulls in the background. The guys were in town filming for 2 days in total. Two rumored Vancouver dates for the P.S. tour to hit our
beloved city are Dec. 16th or early Febuary. Nothing is confirmed. A show Nov 20th is confirmed. I believe the show will be in Boston. There will also be a few days in New York in between the Halloween show and the New Years Eve Show. The band looked good together in the new/old outfits. Peter imparticular looked to be in fine form. One rumor that I heard through the crew was that Ace was a little drunk through the two days of shooting and judging by the way he staggered around, I believed them. All in all, the crew on Mellenium agreed that this was the largest shoot they had ever done and made no bones about the fact that the band really treated everyone that worked on set like gold. About 100 fans outside the Club
waited to see KISS with assorted merch to sign. To my knowledge, none of them got lucky. The set was very tight with tons of extra security were on hand for the band. Gene was particularly interested to see if any of the merchandise at any of the local retailers in Vancouver was black market, one crew member told me. From what I gathered, in Vancouver, black market KISS merchandise is a real problem. Gene gave a 10 minute interview with Jeff O'neil from CFOX. (See CFOX.COM) The interview will run tonight between 6:00 P.M. and 6:30 P.M. on the station. I spoke to Jeff who said that the interview will run in it's entirety with only 1 song in the middle to break it up. THe song will be Raise Your Glasses. Kiss also spoke of their appearent displeasure with the way the Psycho Circus video came out. They're not happy with the 3D effect. Ace in particular was pissed about that. That's about all the info I could gather today. Except for one other thing. I stood no more than 2 feet from the band for over an hour. It was so cool. At the end of the shoot, I got a guitar pic from Ace while Lance Henrickson, the star of Millennium, manged to get Peter's drum sticks. Lance, if your reading this, I hope your happy.
KISS In Vancouver: Millennium TV Show Tapings Report
From: Ronn Roxburgh / Firehouse Online
Hello. I just got home from my second day on the set of Millennium. I was an extra in the Halloween episode which features KISS! The episode will be shown on the 30th of October on Fox. The sceen we were in (Simon Ali - Assistant Firehouse Editor, Sara Zentner - Secratary from hell, Rachel McGinnis - Firehouse member and myself Ronn Roxburgh, FIREHOUSE MAGAZINE Editor) was the sceen which KISS is in. The plot of the episode is a bit confusing, but it invloves a crime which
was commited many years ago, and now a shlock movie producer is filming the crime as a B movie. Part of the B-movie takes place at a KISS concert. Some of the sceens take place while KISS is perfoming the song "Psycho Circus". During the two days we were on set, KISS lypsynched to the song "Psyco Cicrus" many many times. They were on a scaled down stage in the local vancouver night club "the Rage". They had the KISS logo and amps from the Reunion Tour and the stage was decorated with all kinds of Halloween props including skulls, a life sized Frankenstein and all sorts of other Halloween items. KISS of course were wearing their newly redesigned "Destroyer" outsits. All the extras were dressed in Halloween outfits and were the crowd at the KISS show.
For a full report of our two days on set check out the next issue of FIREHOUSE MAGAZINE, on sale at the end of October - just in time for Halloween!
