Kiss - Detroit Rock City | FIRST TIME WATCHING | 2006 Live Video 

Thank you for watching the video, It means a lot to me . I will leave this pinned message here to REMIND everyone that i do not have TELEGRAM and there is no GIVEAWAY. Those you see are bot scams . Keep yourself safe and know that I would not ask for your info.

Their names are: Vocalist: Paul Stanley (Starchild) Guitarist: Ace Frehley (Spaceman) Bass player: Gene Simmons (Demon) Drummer: Peter Criss (Catman) Those are the original members, but I think that on these dates they are: Guitarrist: Tommy Thayer Drummer: Eric Singer

This song was written about a fan who was killed going home from a KISS concert in Detroit. Kinda sad, but now he's immortal.

Saw KISS thirty years before this show, that's 1976, on their first tour with this album "Destroyer", and the show was stunning. They were still very young and moved very well in those platform shoes, dancing and jumping with total energy, and amping the crowd up. Bob Seger and The Silver Bullet Band opened the show, and got an encore, KISS got three encores. KISS did open the show with "Detroit Rock City". Here is their lineup: Gene Simmons-Bass (The Demon), Paul Stanley-Guitar (Star Child), Ace Frehley-Guitar (Space Man) and Peter Criss-Drums (The Cat).

NOBODY puts on a better live show than KISS! They give their audiences everything they want to see & hear, & MORE. I've seen them on every tour they've ever been on, & they just get better & better. Thanks for your reaction.

Fun fact: In 1977 Marvel Comics published a comic in which each member of Kiss added their own blood to the ink in which in which it was printed. 100% true. Today that comic is worth on the average $250-300.

Kiss is one of those bands that i havent been able to see live and i wish i had. Looks like that put on a amazing show. Other songs i recommend are Strutter, Lick It Up, and God Gave Rock n Roll To You II. Great reaction Biss!! ❤😛🤘

Paul Stanley - Star Child, Gene Simmons-The Demon, Tommy Thayer-Spaceman, and Eric Singer-Catman.

They have played that song as their opening act for decades. You think watching on video is wild, try them live. The pyrotechnics were so wild, you could feel the heat from the explosions

I'm a lifelong KISS fan since my childhood in the 70s and I have the greatest respect for these guys, not only because of all the great music that they put out over many decades, but because they are still passionate and determined to give you a great show everytime when they're on stage and we're talking about some men in their seventies here (Gene is 73 and Paul 71). Because of their age they're on their farewell tour right now and I'm going to see them (and bid them farewell) in Cologne in about two weeks. I'm quite excited even though I have seen them many times before, but this one feels special since it's most likely the last time. Honestly: I am already 52 years old, but when I am at a KISS concert, I really feel as if I'm my ten-year-old self again with glowing eyes, singing from the top of my lungs. You should really check out some live stuff from the seventies, I recommend 'Black Diamond" from the 1975 'Midnight Special' which was a tv show with live audience. Great song, great version and great vibe. Here's the link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yy4opYZW1cQ.html&ab_channel=TheMidnightSpecial

Kiss is an amazing band and their gigs are always fantastic

Yes... Greatest Show on Earth!!! It's said that Garth Brooks patterned his concerts after KISS, he admired their showmanship so much.

Some good examples of Paul's range can be found in "Heart of Chrome", "I've had enough(into the fire)", and "Million to One". Not sure how much KISS you'll listen to but those show is vocal abilities pretty well. Star make up is Paul Stanley (Star Child) Bat one is Gene Simmons (Demon) Cat make up - Peter Criss (Catman) And the last one is Ace Frehley (Spaceman)

You need to watch the live acoustic version of I Still Love You. It shows off the mad talent of the band without makeup.

This is hard rock. KISS was the first band I ever got into, and the first two concerts I ever attended were KISS concerts. They've been around since 1973. This song was basically a "thank you" to the city of Detroit (where I'm from), which was the first major market to truly embrace them (they're from New York originally).

In his prime Paul's vibrato was unmatched. Absolutely amazing voice. Some of the best shows I've ever seen were Kiss, to include their farewell tour.

Kiss grew out of their costume era but left on a real high with Creatures of the Night (1982); wrote some pretty damn good crowd pleasing pop-rock tracks in the 80's and 90's but then went back(wards) and have been living off their past glories for 20 years. Yes, they work hard and are probably doing more per concert than most rock groups 1/3rd their age but you don't win awards for effort. I recommend trying out their unplugged "I still love you" or something from REVENGE (92) or ASYLUM (85) because this is KISS trying to go back to when they were in their 20's and there just isn't the raw passion that is needed to make these songs fun.

Yes! My favorite KISS song next to Psycho Circus. In an interview Gene Simmons, I believe it was, said that the main reason KISS is done is because the gear is like fifty pounds and when you’re seventy, it’s a lot less fun to do that for long periods of time.

Thanks for reacting to KISS. Really enjoyed it.

The "batguy" you refer to is Gene Simmons, the bassist. He is actually the Demon, the lead vocalist is Paul Stanley (Starchild), The Lead Guitarist is Tommy Thayer (Spaceman) and Drummer in this clip is Eric Singer (Catman). Gene and Paul are original members, Tommy replaced Ace Frehley while Eric Singer is their third drummer following Peter Criss (original) and Eric Carr who passed away with cancer.

They are a fantastic live band! Still going strong today but are apparently, going to quit touring this year. I have been re discovering KISS lately and they are still a fun band to listen to and they certainly give it their all in their live performances. They don’t receive enough credit even though they have been successful for 50 years.

KISS has been going strong since 1973. By the time they did this show in 2006 they were all in their 50's and still going strong.

Thanks for doing Kiss. My favorite band my whole life. Keep doing them please. I enjoy your reactions.

Good morning! Love your reactions. KISS has been a favorite of mine since I was 12 (I'm 58 now). Please take a look at the band Liliac - 5 siblings that play covers of heavy metal songs as well as their own original songs.

Formed in January 1973, the group originally featured rhythm guitarist Paul Stanley, bassist Gene Simmons, lead guitarist Ace Frehley and drummer Peter Criss, all of whom contributed to vocals.

KISS was my first real concert to attend in Reno, NV. when I was just 12yo. The ticket prices were OUTRAGES!!!! They were a unheard of price back then of $12 each! :).........I still have the stubs and program + photos from 35mm camera I snuck in.

I seen kiss in 1975 and what a concert. It was great.

It's said you don't go to a KISS Concert to hear the music it's all about the SHOW they put so much into putting on the best show they can . and to think they started back in 1973 !

This one of my faves by KISS! I saw the original line-up twice in the 70’s. Fantastic & fun performance!! I still have the confetti from the Fabulous Forum in Los Angeles. You gotta do GOD OF THUNDER live … stunning!

I love the band Kiss!!!! I met this band in 1983 and since this year I've been following them. Detroit Rock City is a classic of music, from the 1976 album Destroyer (an album that I recommend you listen to in its entirety) The band kiss had several formations, and I think you will really enjoy making a reaction video of the song I Still Love You by Acustico from 1996 with the formation of Kiss without makeup. thanks for the video reaction I really enjoyed reliving this time.

They have been together sence 1973 they are just now finishing up with there last tour the end of the road tour they have days off f concert footage and vid you need to go down the very deep kiss rabbit hole and by the way your a beauty great reaction my friend

I can play that song on my guitar. Kiss is my favorite rock band!

The "Bat Guy" is Gene Simmons, and his character is called The Demon. The lead singer was Paul Stanley, and his character is The Star Child.

Bat guy is Gene Simmons, Lead singer on this song is Paul Stanley, the other guitarist is Ace Freely, and drummer id Eric Karr

Fun Fact: Paul Stanley played the Phantom in the off-Broadway tour of The Phantom of the Opera in Canada! Paul said it was the hardest thing he had ever worked! 🥵

In this version of the band it was: Gene Simmons, bass Phil Collins, drums Paul Stanley, guitar and vocals Nigel Tuffnel, lead guitar

Been to a few KISS concerts in my time, and wow, what a show!

KISS puts on a good show, seen them live, original line up, and new line up 🥁🎸🎸🎸🎤🤘😆🤘🔥🔥

Hi Biss. I saw them in Chicago in 1976. I was 14. Every one has a favorite KISS song. But the best of the best is Black Diamond. Trust an old dude one time. Oh yeah the drummer sings it.

Classic Kiss, one of their best songs imho. Detroit Rock City movie is a must watch, funny as hell!

Kiss actually sounds better now with their 2 new members. I’ve seen the original group and the new version and they sound better now

Paul Stanley (singer-star face), Ace Frehley (Lead guitar), Gene Simmons (Bass-tongue), Peter Kriss (drums). I was a member of Kiss Army fanclub back in the 70's (hehe), my mom said I was going to hell for listening to them (she said Kiss stood for Kids In Service of Satan) hahahaha

They were at Sonic Temple festival in Ohio last month. They brought just as much energy during their farewell tour as they did in 06. I was so happy I got to see them at least once before they retired. I have been enjoying their music for 30 years. I was about 4 the first time I heard "Strutter" from them. My dad has always been a fan since they came out, so he got me started on them early. I'm glad to see you reacting to them.

Remember when these guys were all over tv even in cartoons they were the biggest thing on the planet or at least in the U.S. and in the 70s lots of men wore platform shoes😂😂

Kiss was my very first concert in the mid 70's...i was 15 yo and the concert blew me away😎🤘🤘🤘

Kiss: Paul Stanley is Starchild the singer * Gene Simmons (the bass) Demon *Ace Frehely Guitarists is Starman & Peter Criss the drummer is Catman . Paul Stanley can sing & your right, they are showmen & great performancers & this was one of their greatest live performance. 🤜💥🤛

Starchild and Demon are playing custom built guitars. Spaceman, the one who began the guitar solo, is playing a Gibson Les Paul Standard in "Heritage Cherry Sunburst" color, they sell brand new for around $2500 USD. Ive had a few Les Paul's in my day. They are awesome and iconic and all... BUT... they weigh a metric ton! Seriously, they are surprisingly heavy for their size. Nowadays I play my 1989 ESP M1 more than my other guitars. Once you go ESP you never go back 🤘

The Batguy is actually The Demon - Gene Simmons - The Bassist

The first time I saw KISS was in 1978 at the Forum in Inglewood Ca, I was 12 years old and my cousin’s older sister took us. It was my first concert. I’ve been to several hundred shows and festivals since. I’ve seen this band many times live I think the last was sometime in the 90s. Always enjoy your reactions, I can tell how much you enjoy the music

This woman's facial expressions ..... Make this video greater than it already was. 😂

That's Gene, the demon on bass, Paul, the star child on rhythm guitar. Peter, the cat man on drums and Ace, the space ace on lead guitar

Bisscute you may want to look into the Dave Matthews Band concert from central park, NY. What would you say, crash-into me, crush, where are you going and many more songs.

on the B side of the song Detroit rock city was the song beth, kiss biggest hit

Star guy is Paul Stanley, Demon ( Bat guy ) is Gene Simmons, Catman is Peter Criss ( original drummer) Eric Singer in this video and Eric Carr replaced Peter Criss, Space man was Ace Frehley ( original) Tommy Thayer in this video and other guitarist were Vinnie Vincent, Bruce Kulick and for a short minute Mark St John. I highly recommend Heaven’s On Fire original video.

They also cameo in the movie call : Detroit Rock City As The Kiss themselves did performance on Concert

You're listening to the loudest band in the world they topped out at 136 decibels in Ottowa in 2009❤

I saw Kiss when they 1st came out in the 70's at Swing Auditorium in San Bernardino. It was high energy audience and atmosphere.. Come to find out one of the guards was reselling tickets. It was over capacity and standing room only. He got caught right after because he was getting a divorce and the wife was suing for half the profits. The next concert the ticket takers started tearing the tickets and you kept half.

Detroit Rock City version Halloween night on the Paul Lynde Special. Kiss are comic book characters. Starchild, Demon, Spaceman, and Catman. Ok, hear is a challenge for you. Kiss unplugged and the acoustic version of "I still love you". Paul Stanley's vocals will floor you.

Such a wonderful bundle of energy, you are, it is really infectious. Thanks for sharing! KISS rocks! Gene Simmons- Tongue guy, known for spitting out fake blood from his mouth, The Crazy One. Paul Stanley- Lead singer rhythm guitar, Star Man. Ace Frehley_ Lead Guitar, Futuristic Space Cowboy. Peter Criss- Drums, Crazed Feline ready to strike! More Please!

Saw Kiss back in late 70s. What a stage show.

I saw them a couple of times in the mid-70s, when I was a teenager… decades before you were born. I think teenage boys were the target audience. They were simple and fun… but tastes mature and ideas on quality change.

My first concert was seeing Kiss at the Philadelphia Civic Center in 1976. I was 15 years old. This was my introduction to rock concerts. I am 62 and remember that experience like it was yesterday. I saw the 4 or 5 more times through the mid 90's. Each show was bigger than the last. Prior to that, I bought the Kiss Alive album, which I still own. Thanks for the memory.

One of my main favourite song by Kiss. Fantastic song, great video and reaction. Creatures of the Night is a pretty good song by Kiss

Great reaction, this is my Favorit Kiss Song

we also have him originally from Indonesia he is KUBURAN BAND 👏👏😂 yeaahhh

Hello Miss Bisscute, I loved your initial reaction when you saw the Kiss outfit, great rock band. I hope you do more reactions to songs live in concerts.

In my opinion (and I have been a fan of KISS since 1978), KISS existed from 1973 until 2001 and that's it! In the year 2000 they started their "farewell" tour with the original lineup of Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons, Peter Criss and Ace Frehley. What you see now, and in this video, as KISS is two original guys (Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons) with two imposters. The names of the imposters don't really matter, but they are Eric Singer - who plays the role of Peter Criss on the drums - and Tommy Thayer - who pretends to be Ace Frehley on lead guitar. KISS have had many changes of their lineup over the years, but in 1980 the replacement for Peter Criss, Eric Carr (who unfortunately died from cancer in the heart on November, 24th 1991 - the exact same day as Freddie Mercury from Queen), chose the character of a fox and in the end of 1982 Vinnie Vincent replaced Ace Frehley and became the "Egyptian Warrior" with an Ankh on his face. In the fall of 1983 the band took off the make-up and continued as a "normal" hardrock band for 13 years with more lineup changes, but Mark St. John (lead guitar, 1984), Bruce Kulick (lead guitar, 1984-1996) and Eric Singer (yes, the guy who wears Peter's make-up now on drums, 1992-1996) played their instruments in their personal style. Nowadays Eric Singer and Tommy Thayer have to play the old songs note for note and that's the next embarrassment besides the make-up-issue. Don't get me wrong, I liked and respected every lineup until the character-theft in 2001, even when the original band of Gene, Paul, Peter and Ace is still my favorite. I hope, I didn't bore you with my little rant! I just had to get this out of my chest. ;-) I enjoy your music and movie reactions very much and wish you the best! By the way, I have two suggestions for you: Maybe you would like to react to "New York Groove" (from under the Brooklyn Bridge, 1996. This was during their Reunion-Tour with the original band) and the second song would be "Beth" (1995 during their MTV-Unplugged appearance - without make-up and costumes). Have a great day!

OH NO! Not the shoulders! Well, hell. Looks like we got a real party on our hand now, folks!

❤ your reactions!

The bass player got all the chicks...They loved his goth-vampire thing, and of course, the tounge action (LOL) His parents were quite amused by it, saw them joking about it to Rolling Stone reporters.I wouldn't call KISS the greatest band of that period, But they knew how to put on a helluva show, I'll give 'em that!

Nice And Funny Reaction! Keep Doing These! 🙂 I'm KIZZ Fan Since 1976 🙂 I' ve Seen Them 10 Times Live! 2 Tmes In Sweden First Time In 1980 And Second Time In Sweden 1996 When They Put Back Their "Kabuki" Face Paint And 7 Times In My Home Town Helsinki And Once In Hyvinkää Finland. "Last" Time 2022 Their End Of The Road Tour. Their Final Consert Is Going To Be On December In Madison Square Garden In New York! KIZZ FOREVER! 🤘😝🤘

This song have a comedy movie about a group of school boys that will do whatever it takes to watch a Kiss show in Detroit. The movie is called Detroit rock city, you should put on your list to watch in your movie reaction channel 😊

There is a movie from the 90s called Detroit Rock City, and its about a bunch of 1970s kids trying to get to a KISS concert despite a myriad of obstacles. It stars Edward Furlong (from Terminator 2), and it might be a fun movie to react to on your BissFlix channel. 🙂

This is my favourite Kiss song ever!! 'God Gave Rock & Roll To You' is a great song & 'Lick It Up' kicks hard!! Both the music videos show the band without their makeup which you will find interesting.

I've seen every tour since November 1975 my favorite is still 1978 and Ace Fraley "Shock Me"

Back in the day, it was sort of required that you dress up as Kiss for Halloween. It was a bit of a commitment, since you had to make the suit and platform boots, and a wig of course and the makeup.

This is a great song to do as one of the first songs.... Do more!!!

Biss sweetie, the "Bat" guy is Gene Simmons. Gene is one of those people, like Ozzy Osborne, who are a bit odd but true showmen on stage. However, if you meet them in person, they are some of the nicest guys you will ever come across.

Now *that's* KISS (although I'm sure some folks will be mad it's not all the original members...personally I'm over that). A personal favorite that shows yet another side of the band is "Every Time I Look at You" from the MTV Unplugged show

My take away on this show is, besides the age thing (they're in their 50s +), is Ace Frehley showing up with a standard Gibson Les Paul starburst model when every element around him said, NO. I guess he didn't own a black Flying V. Kudos to Ace, he fucking rocks!

Check out the lives 70's version of this song. Even better when they were in their prime

Kiss was my first concert in July 1977.

You would love the official video for Tears are Falling.... it's a short song but it's really good... with the added benefit that the band is not wearing their usual KISS makeup so you get to see all of them, especially lead singer Paul Stanley...which enjoy if you get my drift

yei!! thanks so much! Finally another KISS reaction. that was a special show. was a show for tv named Rock Honors where KISS, QUEEN and JUDAS PREIST were inducted that night. KISS performed 3 songs. Detroit Rock City, Deuce and Love Gun. please check those songs ass well . Greetings from México.

Nice reaction...😊 🎙💃🎙💃👍👍salam from indonesia..🇸🇬🇸🇬🙋

Great band...great reaction!! "Mr. Tongue" is the crazy Gene Simmons!!!🎵🎼🎶🥁🎤🎙🎸🎹🔥🤘🤘🤘

Gene Simmons on bass, the bat guy lol, Paul Stanley, singer, Ace Frehley, guitar, Peter Criss, Drummer.

Not only fans and connoisseurs of rock music, but also rock musicians themselves admit that they have been fans of the KISS group since childhood. Some even remained their fans already being famous musicians. This band spawned hundreds of rock bands!

The original members will always be my favorite when preforming you should react to Shout it out loud at tiger stadium by them :)

If you get the chance. Before they retire. I recommend seeing them live. You won't regret it.

Geddy Lee from the famous band Rush (they toured with KISS before) in an interview said,"They are the hardest working band in show business."Gene Simmons (bassist) wears a costume that weighs about 40lbs. and doing a 2 plus hour show. And he's in his 70's now. Saw them 4 or 5 times,met them once(with our 3 sons) just to put in our bucket list. Sure their tickets may be high priced, but they have a lot of professional people that need to be paid. Their elaborate stages have to also be paid for as well as their pyro. Their concerts is not just a show, it's a spectacle. You get your money's worth.

Gene Simmons acts in the Movie "Runaway" with Tom Selleck (1984) - the "bad guy" role was perfect for Simmons. I love this movie so much. You should watch it if you´re interested.

Haha!! That's just scratching the surface! Bass player spits blood, breaths fire.. space man shoots rockets out of his guitar. Starman flies over the crowd... It's a show!

They are the kings of a big show. Wow. Hey; I predict 200 K in ten days.... That would be before July 1.

Totally rad reaction Bisscute! I'd love to see you react to the following KISS songs (live or official versions): God Of Thunder Beth Tears Are Falling Crazy Nights Love Gun Keep up the great reactions Bisscute! Many blessings to you and yours!

Well, I think she would love to see the BASSIST also singing for the band!!

Kiss plays hard rock music but w/ pop rock influences... they were huge fans of The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Elvis, The Who, etc... The main 2 guys of Kiss has always been Paul Stanley (vocals & guitar) who wears the star makeup, and Gene Simmons (bass & vocals) who wears the 'demon' makeup... this video had Tommy Thayer (lead guitar) who replaced original lead guitarist Ace Frehley, and Eric Singer (drums) who replaced original drummer Peter Criss... (who wore the 'Spaceman' and 'Catman' makeup) 'Detroit Rock City' came out in 1976... it was a tribute to the Michigan city where Kiss broke big in 1975. They were selling out arenas there before they even had a hit record. The lyrics were written by Paul Stanley after hearing about a Kiss fan in North Carolina, who was killed in a car accident on his way to their concert... it was also a tribute of sorts to him. On the Kiss album 'Destroyer'... the track 'Detroit Rock City' has a long intro that sounds like someone cleaning up, walking outside, getting into a car and driving w/ Kiss on the radio and a news announcement that someone had been killed in a car accident ... The song at the end has the sound of car brakes screeching and a crash... The edited radio version only had the song. Kiss were never a full-on metal band, but did some heavy rock records like 'Creatures of the night' (1982) and 'Lick it up' (1983)... Aerosmith were comparable to them musically because they also had those 60's pop rock influences, and both bands were also fans of Led Zeppelin and Alice Cooper.

You really need to listen Kiss Simphony Alive IV song Black Diamond with the drummer on vocals. You won't regret it!!!!

in case, somehow, nobody else has told you... the lead singer (with the star) is Paul Stanley, the guy with the tongue is Gene Simmons (and yes, that became is trademark), the bass was Ace Frehley (pronounced like Free-Lee), and the drummer was Peter Chris. the drummer was eventually replaced by Eric Carr, and Ace was also replaced but I don't remember by whom.

Seen them in Edmonton Alberta Canada 1979 dam am I old I was 14at the time
