[Buicksx2]

Hi All,

Well the reviews are in and needless to say it was a smashing success of a movie far outdoing anything Led Zep ever hoped to accomplish with their "Our bad songs remains the same". If KISS is not nominated for an Oscar for best musical/rockumentary then there is something seriously wrong with the academy.

We got to the theatre early as the line stretched around the building or at least that is my recollection of the scene man.

While there in parking lot we saw this kicka$$ retro mid 70's Firebird pull up with chrome exhaust tips and saw both Wayne and Garth get out, so I said to Sean I think I know what movie they are going to see and it was nice of them to pullout their retro Firebird to complete the nights motif.

We had our Fandango purchased tickets already in hand the three of us scooted right in like the JCC Rock Stars that we are.

Show kicked off right at 8pm with about a 15 minute appearance by Gene and Paul explaining what we were about to see and promoting KISSOLOGY a 2 DVD set due out 10/31 a 6 hour never before seen KISS trilology with two more volumes coming out in 2007. They also explained the whole meaning of KISS and how they always believed they were going to be bigger than life and how they believed in their dreams (a good lesson for all of us and especially the kids out there).

Gene said when they pointed to the crowd, they always pointed to this highest row in the biggest stadium cause "that's where we were going, straight to the top" and that one of the things KISS is about besides the music is "moving mountains" again IMO another great life lesson we can all take to heart.

After the intro it was 90 minutes of KISS Alive 1 and of course having listened to the album 1000 times I knew all the words like "How many people here.........like to get high" or "there's only one drink that's gonna bring you up when you are feeling down........what's that......COLD GIN........I can't hear you.......COLD GIN".

Sean, Tommy and I had a great time knowing full well that poor Artie Putz could not attend due to technical difficulties. However the theatre did say they would be showing Led Zep's movie next week in one of their smaller 5 row theaters and they were hoping for a sellout, so maybe Artie can attend next week.

Sean has pics to post so everyone can get the feel as if they were there along side Sean, Tommy X and myself.......enjoy
