KISS “Monster Tour”, Japan

20 Oct

I saw KISS in concert yesterday!  I have seen KISS a bunch of times…but this was one of their best shows!

They changed their stage, costumes and set list!  They played a number of songs that I’ve never heard in concert before!

The setlist:

  • Psycho Circus
  • Shout It Out Loud
  • Do You Love Me?
  • I Love It Loud
  • Hell Or Hallelujah
  • War Machine   (Gene’s fire breathing)
  • (Sukiyaki)
  • Heaven’s On Fire
  • Calling Dr. Love
  • Say Yeah
  • Shock Me / Outta This World
  • (Tommy’s guitar solo / Eric’s drum solo & bazooka)
  • (Gene spits blood , bass solo and “flies” to rafters)
  • God Of Thunder
  • Lick It Up
  • (Paul “flies” over audience to mini-stage)
  • Love Gun
  • Rock N Roll All Night

Encore:

  • Detroit Rock City
  • I Was Made For Lovin’ You
  • Black Diamond

Here are some photos that I took:

      Those aren’t real items, are they? KISS does have their logo on an unbelievable assortment of merchandise…so it actually wouldn’t surprise if they did sell tea towels and oven mittens!

        You went to tonight’s show at the Budokan?
        Is it over already?

        All of the shirts were sold-out?

        Went Monday, Osaka-jo. All male shirts sold-out. Perhaps they allocate a number of shirts per show? Disappointed.

        My friend got the tour book. I looked at it after the show … it’s great! The best tour book I’ve ever seen!

        Ironically, I normally get the tour books, but this time I didn’t!

        (edit. I went back and bought a tour book!!)
