I was at Hershey Pennsylvania when I saw them. From what I remember Paul was pretty good. Eric Singer was on drums. Aerosmith was good too, they ended the show with one of my favorite songs, Toys In The Attic, which was pretty awesome.
IMO KISS is a good band, musiclly, but not quite as good as say Aerosmith or AC/DC. KISS has some really kick ass songs and some song that make me cringe on each album, where Aerosmith and AC/DC don't. (As you can tell I compare KISS with Aerosmith and AC/DC alot. lol)
I hear ya. Like I said one persons favorite band may be another persons worst band. lol All opinion but makes interesting conversation. A few misconceptions about Aero I always hated 1, THEY ARE A NEW YORK BASED BAND, IN MY MIND ANYWAY LOL, Tyler grew up right near Jones beach Kramer was from the Bronx ect ect why they say they're a Boston based band just because that's where they llived when they made it big is beyond me because, as the songs says, they caught their big break in a bar in Manhattan. 2, The original BAD BAYS FROM BOSTON were a band called The J. Giels band, check out BLOW YOUR FACE OUT, but yet somehow Aero took it over. lol Personally I like the Toxic Twins moniker much better and it fits. 3, When they use to refer to Tyler as the poor mans Mick Jagger. lmfao Aero never duped the Stones but I guess it made good press because Tyler looked so much like Jagger in the day. Aero should have put out a live album around 76. That would be one of the best live albums ever.
Shame Bon never lived to see the success he helped create and judging from the last live album I looked at that AC/DC released the bulk of the set list is Bon era songs. Although all 3 bands started around the same time, 73ish if I remember correctly, AC/DC didn't catch on until a few years after Aero and Kiss. I remember waiting for the Imports to come in then once If you want Live made a big dent then Back in Black blew them outta the water but by then Bon was gone. The 3 came up the ranks and probably get compared alot especially Aero and KI$$. They even put out mags comparing the two. I have em somewhere. lol |
