ZR Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 I like Kiss but I'm not as big of a fanboy as you guys. So...what's the deal with Christine Sixteen - was that a song they didn't usually play?
Steve Haynie Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 I like Kiss but I'm not as big of a fanboy as you guys. So...what's the deal with Christine Sixteen - was that a song they didn't usually play?On the 1996 reunion tour Christine Sixteen was only played at the first show in Detroit.KISS has always been sloppy at playing, but when they really felt what they were doing they were on fire! Watching the Irvine bonus disc in KISSology III Paul and Ace were really playing sloppy. There is one big plus to that video: the sound separation of the guitars is so distinct that it should be easy to learn the licks of each guy a little better. One day I am going to finally learn both parts of the Detroit Rock City solo, and this video may be just what I need to do it!
Armitage Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 I just wish I could find a TAB of the outro to Ace's "Into the Night," for some reason it bamboozles me, and I really like it.
alantigold Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 Something I don't recall anyone mentioning (although if I'm repeating someone else, I apologize) - after the credits on disc 3 of volume 3, they show Peter destroying his drum set, and then backstage saying something like "That was cool!"I still have the Coventry and Brazil show to go.Alan
BTMN Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 This freakin' thread "made" me pickup II and III the other day when I was at Wallymart. Wish another band I like a TON would do something like these DVDs.
alantigold Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 Let's see, for starters, I'd like to see a set like this from:- The Who- Stevie Ray Vaughan- Johnny Cash- Elton John- Queen- Michael Hedges- PrinceAlan
elduave Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 Let's see, for starters, I'd like to see a set like this from:- The Who- Elton John- QueenI'm with ya, but you can piece one together for all the above. They all have large amounts of video out there. Queen's got at least 3 major concert vids (the "We Will Rock You-Live In Canada" deal is the best), tons of Who stuff is out (Kids Are Alright covers alot) and Elton's got quite a few things as well (the 60th birthday DVD is chock full of great stuff), AND, they all have "Classic Albums" series out, which are pretty much the best videos of their kind. And that's just the licensed stuff...
BTMN Posted January 13, 2008 Posted January 13, 2008 I was wishing for Aerosmith. I would like a show from '74/'75, '76, '78, '83 New Years Eve reunion show that was shown on Boston area Cable, '86, '88, '90, '93, '97/'98, '99 Osaka NYE, '01, '03, '04 with a "easter Egg" of Cheap Trick's opening set, '06..... You get the idea. I know they dont really have the KISS "mystque" o the rabid fans like them but I think it would still do good sales in a 3-4 part release. Bill Graham recorded "all" his promoted shows and I've heard the vault he had is loaded with MANY of the best. Bet there are a few good Aerosmith gigs there. On Wolfgang's Vault website they have an August '75 show you can listen to that I have in various bootleg forms but not one has the full set. WV's has the full set.

And that's just the licensed stuff...Well, I was thinking something more along the lines of Kissology, something that's career-spanning. Of the three, Elton's probably the best represented, but I'd love to see some official release of the early TV performances (BBC In Concert, etc., although the 60th birthday DVD gathers a lot of those).Most of the Queen stuff seems to be centered around the mid-late 80s stuff. I'd like to see some of the 70s stuff, the Kampuchea show, etc. Although I do like what they did w/their videos collection (and would love to see someone in Kiss pick up a copy of this and say, 'Hey, we could do something like this...'). Something else I'd like to see on DVD - "The Magic Years". Some nice studio footage on there.The Who stuff is virtually all post-Keith, and as great as a lot of it is, it's not classic Who. I don't know how much pro shot stuff w/Keith is actually out there (I've heard rumors, but who knows how accurate they are). I've got a Cleveland show w/Keith, and I've heard about the Houston show, but it would be great to have a few shows of that vintage. There were rumors about that kind of stuff coming out w/the "Amazing Journey" set, which didn't happen, but there are also rumors those shows may see separate releases.The Classic Album series is fantastic. I have the Who and Elton versions, and I'd love to get the Fleetwood Mac one. They did one on "Kiss Alive!", but it hasn't seen home release yet (that I'm aware of).Alan

We could def. hang and go through our video collections together. Maybe we can trade something. I've got lots of Elton. There was a Kiss CA for Alive? I had no idea. Another good CA is The Band.BTMN, I'm with ya on Aerosmith.

Interesting, but could have been better.As for a trade, that would disappoint my wife - but I've been doing that for years. I do have the 79 Largo show (boot version - actually two versions) that you mentioned somewhere along the line.I don't think *I* said anything about Aerosmith, but I did see them years ago in Richmond, VA - Ted Nugent was the opener, and the real reason I went.Alan
