Saw Kiss in Birmingham last night, and had an absolute wail of a time. Say what you like about how many farewell tours they've done, but they're still hugely entertaining and put one of the best arena rock shows. When the inevitable reunion tour comes around, I'll be there.

On the topic of Alexander the Great, has Bruce referenced the fact they've finally played it yet during the show?

Nicko's absolutely nailing it. We love to see it.

Sounds like something your dad and his mates from down the pub would smash out in the garage. Looks like it too.

Nicko after performing the second Prague show: "reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated". I take back what I said, he's still performing brilliantly given everything.

I just need to hear Bruce do The Aftermath or When Two Worlds Collide.

Omg I had no idea, thanks for the heads up! I'll be all over that Birmingham date.

Even in that Drum Tour video they released today, he sounded old. Like his voice just seemed a lot older than what I'm used to hearing from Nicko. I know he is 71, but it's always a shock when you realise your musical heroes aren't immortal or invincible. I remember talk back in 2014 when I...

You have a point, but the difference is last year was their first tour in three years so that was kinda to be expected. Nicko is simplifying drum lines that he performed perfectly normally less than year ago.

I'm glad I'm seeing them twice this year, because I can honestly see this being my last chance, if they choose to call it quits if Nicko does.

Oh man that sounds bad. Didn't think Nicko's drumming had deteriorated that much since last year.

They're sounding a lot tighter and more confident than on opening night.

From the sound of the video, which is just abysmal, it sounds like Nicko is doing the drum fills in the middle of CSIT before Dave's solo, which I mentioned a few pages ago. I can't really tell though honestly.

With the talk of Nicko simplifying drum beats. I noticed that the lighting in CSIT looks like it had been cued for the original fills. So he must have at least performed them during rehearsals to at least an acceptable level for them to program the lighting for it. Is it just a case of first...

Obviously replaced Futureal.

From watching some videos, I don't think I've seen the band more concentrated on playing the music. I suspect it must be daunting performing complex songs for the first time ever or for the first time in 35 years, and the monitoring issues probably didn't help. Hopefully they'll be able loosen...

Currently at Slam Dunk Fest, quite drunk. But all I can say is what a fucking setlist so far. What the fuck.

Sneak peak at the walk on Eddie! (Also, quite telling that they're pushing the SIT aspect of this tour, much more than the Senjutsu aspect)

Whatever is played, I have a feeling that this will be a tour with a setlist with a majority of songs I have yet to hear live. That in itself is making me incredibly excited.

Not their best EP honestly. I think that's just because If You Have Ghost and Popestar were just absolutely sublime.
