These cats came back … and thanks for that!
After completing the Monster tour in Japan last week, logistically, reasonably, realistically and cost effectively, it made no sense to schedule a one-off show 8,007 kilometers away.
But, then again … this is no ordinary band.
For you Calgary, the masters of classic shock weren’t about to blow this one off. No damn way.
During the third rescheduled Calgary Stampede arena show in the past eight days, KISS proved once and for all that the best kind of fun is big, dumb fun.
And you can bet your Originals lunchbox on it.
The lights, the smoke, the bombs, the sparks, the blood, the fire, the fans, the spectacle and, uh, some tasty classic rock nuggets, which have stood the test of time rather well, makes the entire experience a memorable one — no matter how old or young you are.
