In 1986, if you would have asked me if I’d go to another KISS concert, I’d probably say “not likely”. I had seen them 2 or 3 times 
in the non make-up era and while those shows were still entertaining, they didn’t measure up to the with make-up shows.
If you missed the story, KISS with their non-make-up line up at the time were invited to do MTV’s Unplugged series. During the show, original members Peter Criss and Ace Frehley joined them onstage for a song or 2. One thing leads to another and before you know it, KISS is doing a reunion tour. They are recreating the show from 1977. How cool is that?!
A time capsule back to the days when KISS were dominating the world. It worked again they sold out planet Earth doing the exact same stuff they were doing 20 years prior and people loved it.
I’m fairly certain that this was just a serendipitous moment but there is a small part of me that believes the whole thing was engineered by that crafty Gene Simmons. So in the summer of 1996 we drove down to Indianapolis and saw KISS. It was good all over again.
