Myself and a friend attended a Savoy Brown concert at a local movie theater, the Paramount in Portland Oregon, in 1973. We were twelve years old. The line to get in was around the block. And here comes three guys in leather jackets with KISS written on the back. The band name was on the tickets but we were to young to put it together and everybody was like "who are these guys and why do they get to go in first?". Hahahaha, Life. Pointless to say our young minds were blown away. And back then when they were young, all over the stage with their antics, and trying to make it, they corrupted us, they hit us standing still. we were not even ready for that. That's all we talked about for days.

I read years ago, that Ace chose to go last as he never wanted to be the first one to get onstage. He stated, he had stage fright. And going on after the guys is what helped him to keep on going. Had nothing to do with the reaction from the crowd. This is documented in images from the beginning as well.

That may be what fueled their substance abuse that affected their performance? I can see that after 40yrs some of the decisions have been purely business. Whether they played music or manufactured widgets, customers or consumer purchasing decisions could have been affected if they had allowed the name of KISS become a laughing stock! They battled mainstream Rock & Roll managers as well as those just record producers who have the power to make or break an act!! No difference for Actors & Executive Producers & Director’s! The people with the $$$ & ability to pay the BIG BILLS it takes in the beginning to finance album production PLUS the Concert Tour (venues, sound & light & pyrotechnic professionals, ETC ETC) I see the Personality driven group as they matured. Four young men that began a band & had to learn to make adult decisions once they found a hint of success. The Beatles couldn’t stay together 40yrs. Creative differences & huge egos/ personalities took over then the Attorneys & Managers made sense of the “Real Property” which was Talent (John, Paul, George & Ringo) , then they moved onto music created & performed, then came the merchandise $$$ above & beyond records, and that is JUST the BEGINNING of the fun that happens once 4 young men are having fun making music then the Public become Fans & oh the joys of Corporate Attorneys & the REALLY GOOD ones get paid to START at $200hr... Next time your listening to a Successful Band think about all of these things? It’s not just Paul or Gene lining THEIR pockets. Believe me!! I have always liked more Contemporary Adult music. I began to explore this group who for years I COULDN’T STAND! I watched videos & YES I think Ace was talented but you have to FACE a LOT of personal demons when you find success... or those things you FEAR THE MOST will break you & drive you into a puddle on the floor in a fetal position crying out!?! So alcohol & drugs... wine, women & songs can take you to places SO LOW that you NEVER knew they existed!! ...now all I am asking if the haters that are gonna hate will just kindly step away from their device & just Let It Be... The Truth that is...

I remember being so disappointed when it was announced that Peter was out for the Australian leg of the tour, as we already had tickets at that point in time… but those Australian shows with Eric Singer on the drums were amazing. Tweaks to the setlist and the medley in the encores were something a bit unique and special. Doc’s comments are telling and it doesn’t feel like a happy vibe at all!

Tommy Thayer stepped in and Peter continued to play with KISS on the Aerosmith/KISS tour in 2003. Peter left Kiss again in March 2004 after Paul and Gene opted not to renew his contract following the Rocksimus Maximus Tour. Peter did not play well on that last tour.
