KISS Live In Esch-Alzette 26-6-2008

On june 26th it was time for my next KISS show. After work I drived for about 2 hrs till arrived at the Rockhall in Esh-Alzette (Luxembourgh) in the middle of nowhere, it was located in a factory-erea. It was for the very first time ever that the band played in Luxembourgh. At 6:30 pm I was at the hall and on this warm sunny day a lot of people turned up. The Rockhall can hold up to 6500 people and I think it was close to a sold out show, with this 6500 max it was a kind off intimed KISS show.  At 7 pm the doors went open and I went directly to the merchandise stand, because at the Arrow Rock Festival the tourbooks were sold out, I really wanted to buy one with the original logo. I bought several, for some friends too, and I saw that they’re sold a lot more items than on the German shows, like Keychains, Guitarstraps, Necklaces and more. So I did some shopping there. Than I went to the stage and I got a spot, front row, at the left of the stage, at Gene’s place! So I could take some good pics later.

KISS started their show later as usual, around 9:40 pm they hitted the stage and from the start the crowd went nuts. The band was tight and funn to watch. It was hot in there and secrurity give the fans at the front row water, so I glady welcome the waterbottles. At the spot where I’m stood, right before Gene, I got some cool interaction with the Demon, at several times he looked right into my eyes…Also Tommy interact with me. I think they’re starting to reconize me, lol. They played the same setlist and all the tricks were done. Did I mention that Gene’s son Nick was there too? Paul is still one of the greatest frontmen of all time, I really enjoyed his stage performance every time! KISS played till 11:50 pm and then it was all over. Outside the hall they sold all kinds of bootleg merchandise, like T-Shirts & Posters, so I bought a copple of them. I had a great time again, just 1 more show to go!

Enjoy the pics...
