Double album on yellow vinyls.
On July 27 an extraordinary page was written in Kisstory. At the Soboba Casino in San Jacinto, California, last stop of the bands 2007 “Hit And Run” mini tour, Kiss performed as a trio for the first time ever. Immediately following the bands sound check, Paul Stanley suddenly fell ill and his heart was beating at 200 beats per minute and he was given a shot in an attempt to slow it down. At the local hospital it was determined that it was cardiac event. Once it was determined by emergency medical staff that Paul could not perform, there was talk that the show would need to be cancelled. It was Paul himself, who insisted that theband play the show without him. Kiss manager D.McGhee then took the stage to announce to the crowd that Paul was sick and unable to perform but that Gene wanted to speak with the fans. Gene asked the audience if they wanted him, Tommy and Eric to perform. The crowd responed with a defeaning change of yes yes yes. With that, Gene announced that the concert was a triibute to “The greatest voice in Rock and Roll, Rock god Paul Stanley”. Gne, Tommy and eric played their hearts out in honor of their stricken leader. The set list evolved as the night progressed and Kiss blasted their way into the hot night air. In an emotonally charged moment, Gene told the crow that he was an only child but nevertheless had a brother in Paul Stanley. Christine Sixteen brought 11 invited fans onto the stage to help perform teh son and added a bit of lighthearted fun to the pensive night. The sold out arena was filled with dedicated fans who appreciated what a unique night this really was, despite its bittersweet nature, and rocked hard and loud. As the final chords of Rock And Roll All Night were struck, and the last jets of flames and confetti shot into the night sky, everyone realized what they had just witnessed was simply great music performed by dedicated musicians who really gave it their all.
