Our KISS Meet & Greet Experience In Brussels!!!


On june 13th we had our KISS Meet & Greet Experience In Brussels, Belgium!!!

We're so happy with our great photo's backstage at their last final show in Belgium!
When it was our turn to meet the band Paul Stanley pointed to us and said it's great to see you again, and Gene Simmons was so awesome to us, as was Tommy Thayer & Eric Singer! We had such cool interactions with them all, we couldn't have a better experience with our favorite band! We had a such incredible time and a special big thank you for our special friend who made this possible for us...

These cool items we got @ the Meet & Greet; laminates & wristbands!
Backside of the laminate.


Here we are with our friend Keith Leroux.

The Soundcheck:

Earlier this day we had the opertunity to attend the KISS soundcheck in the afternoon!

At front row we watch the band perform: Plaster Caster, Got To Choose, Nothin' To Lose, Hotter Than Hell & Goin' Blind


Here's our video of Plaster Caster:

During the Q@A there was a interesting question: what will happen after the last KISS tour show? With Paul answering: KISS will continue in more than 1 way, a lot more is coming...

Here's our video of Got To Choose:

We had such a blast @ the sound check, they had fun and we had fun.

The Show:

After our Meet & Greet with the band we got to our seats and after a few minutes it was time for our favorite band, we just saw a copple of minutes ago!
You Wanted The Best, You Got The Best: KISS!!!
As soon as the curtain came down, Gene, Paul & Tommy came down to the stage on their platforms surrounded with a lot of pyro, bombs and smoke, with Eric behind his drumkit coming down behind them! .
Here's our video from I Love It Loud:
Paul said that this was the 6th time that they played in the Brussels and the fans were awesome & crazy here.
Here's is our video of the incredible Eric Singer dumsolo:

It was hot in de Palais 12 and it would become much hotter with one of our all time favorites: God Of Thunder.
Here's our video of I Was Made For Lovin' You, their № 1 hit in Europe:

After Black Diamond it was time their first encore with Eric behind the piano.
Here's our video of Beth:

Second encore was Do You Love Me with the KISS balloons falling down on the fans. Next it was the song we didn't want to hear yet, we still hadn't enough. But the end of the show was coming with of course Rock And Roll All Night with a lot of confetti, bombs, pyro and smoke. Gene & Tommy went up on the risers with Eric up on his drumriser and of course Paul smashing his guitar.

And then the show is over. Feeling hot but satisfied! Setlist was the same as in Amsterdam last night.

We had a amazing time!
Words can say not enough how we feel with meeting our favorite band today! We'll never forget this special day!

There'll be 1 more European show for us, on july 2th in Cologne, Germany...

KISS Live In Amsterdam!


On june 12th we saw KISS Live In Amsterdam (The Netherlands) on Marina's birthday!
We we're so excited to see our favorite band again, we thought it would never happen again and that when we saw them last year in Amsterdam it would be their last show in Europe! but hey, here we are and ready to rock and roll tonight!
We arrived at 7 PM at the Ziggo Dome in hot weather. When we were inside the venue, we checked out the merchandise, bought some T-shirts, tourbook & pins. We got to our seats, to Gene's side, and a copple of minutes for 9 PM it was time for the Hottest Band In The World...KISS!
As soon the curtain was gone, we saw Gene, Paul & Tommy coming down each on the platforms to the stage with a lot of smoke and fire, behind them on the drumriser was Eric coming down too!
Here's our video of Detroit Rock City:

KISS played tight and sounded great! There was a great vibe.

So we enjoyed every minute of the show and we sang so loud with each and every song, like Shout It Out Loud, Deuce, Warmachine, & Say Yeah!
Here's our video of: Cold Gin with Tommy's guitarsolo:

Every time we'll see KISS we got the chills and are so excited to see a show again, we cann't get enough of it.

After Lick It Up they had a "new" song added to their setlist, that we haven't heard live for a long time: Makin' Love, here's our video:

Also not forget to report, that Gene not wear his skin guards on his legs, probaly to be more comfortable and mobile or because of the heat.

When it was time for Gene's solo, he stood on the middle ufo platform to do his bloody bass solo and than the whole platform went up above the stage and he performe his signature song God Of Thunder.
Here's our video of it:

Gene's solo is always 1 of our favorite moments of the show!

The stage had some new elements, at each side and below Eric's drumkit there were extra videoscreens placed. Another favorite moments of the show is when Paul flew over the crowd to the little stage back of the venue to perform Love Gun.
Here's our video:

Of course there were a lot of pyro's, smoke & flames that makes a show a KISS show. After Black Diamond they went of stage for a small break and the first encore was Beth with Eric behind the piano. After Do You Love Me and the KISS balloons coming down it was time for their grand finale: Rock & Roll All Night, with a lot of confetti, bombs, pyro and smoke. Gene & Tommy went up high on the risers with Paul smashing his guitar.
Here's our video of Do You Love Me & Rock & Roll All Night:

Than it was all over, their last show in The Netherlands ever! We were sweaty & hot, but feeling so excited, what a show, we had a blast!

We knew this wasn't our final show ever yet, we've a few more ahead of us. Coming up next is: Brussels...

This was the setlist: Detroit Rock City, Shout It Out Loud, Deuce, Warmachine (Gene breathes fire) Heaven's On Fire, I Love It Loud, Say Yeah, Cold Gin (with Tommy's guitar solo) Lick It Up, Makin' Love, Calling Dr. Love, Psycho Circus (with Eric's drum solo) God Of Thunder (with Gene's bass solo & flying to the platform above the stage) Love Gun (Paul flying to stage) I Was Made For Lovin' You & Black Diamond.
