On this show I do a live bootleg of KISS at the Oakland Coliseum from Nov. 22, 2009 complete with ridiculous Paul Stanley stage raps. I start the show off with a song from Rainbow in honor of Ronnie James Dio, who was just diagnosed with stomach cancer.
I went to the Kiss show on Nov. 22nd, 2009 with my friend Casey and his 6 year old son Gage. We arrived at a little after 8pm. Buck Cherry was just wrapping their set up so we missed them. When we got in the venue, it turned out that the nosebleed section our seats were in was closed off due to lack of ticket sales so they upgraded our seats to a lower section. We were seated directly across from the stage. The perfect place for a 6 year old to see a show. It looked like the venue was about half full. When Kiss came on, they put on a 2 hour spectacle with every great rock and roll cliche in the book. I left the show feeling completely entertained. Every guy in the band was giving 110 percent and it showed. Paul Stanley’s voice was a little raspy but he still yelled out every lyric and cheesy stage rap with passion. If they come to your town, go see them. You won’t be disappointed and you can probably get a ticket for fairly cheap. Here was the set list:
