KISS

In November 2009, KISS was deep into their 'Alive 35 Tour,' which celebrated the band's legendary 1975 album 'Alive!'. This live performance at the Target Center in Minneapolis showcased not only their classic anthems but also highlighted how KISS, even after decades in the industry, masterfully engaged fans with their electrifying stage presence. Just prior to this tour, they released 'Sonic Boom' in 2009, marking their return after a decade-long studio hiatus. The album received critical acclaim and reignited interest in their music, demonstrating that KISS had not lost their flair for rock and roll. Interestingly, this show featured Tommy Thayer on lead guitar, who has carried on the torch that Ace Frehley first lit. The synergy in their live performance reminds us why KISS remains a staple in rock culture, continuing to ignite passion across generations.
