Gene Simmons Band Gene Simmons/Sweden 2018

From the 2018 European tour with his solo band, the performance in Stockholm, Sweden on June 2nd is coupled with sound and video. First, the sound source is a complete recording of the day’s performance by digital audience recording for 1 hour and 40 minutes. It was recorded at an outdoor festival event, and the sound output from the PA is reproduced clearly and directly, with a more realistic texture than the soundboard sound, and the roar of the bass matches the three guitars perfectly. And while the performance of the previous year’s “LOUD PARK 17” visit to Japan is still fresh in our memory, the biggest point is that KISS’s rare numbers have been significantly replaced, starting with Gene joking that “Today is a rehearsal” and lightly playing “Unholy” and “Love Theme from Kiss”, and from the middle of the show, “She’s So European” from “UNMASKED”, “Charisma” from “DYNASTY”, “It’s My Life” from “MUSIC FROM “THE ELDER”” and others. In addition, to go with the box set “GENE SIMMONS VAULT,” they performed unreleased songs from the “CREATURES OF THE NIGHT” era, “It’s My Life” and “Are You Ready,” making this a set that core fans will love even more than the Japanese performances. In addition, the video DVD also includes a complete recording of the day’s performance, with audience shots from the front center position of the stage. Although the arms of the audience in the front are somewhat in the way because it’s an outdoor festival, the viewpoint is high, so you can look directly at the stage, it’s stable, and you can change the angle and zoom smoothly. It’s either the photographer is very determined, the power of the latest anti-shake function, or both. It’s hard to believe that he took this shot with a tripod that’s taller than a person, but it’s such a stable and wonderful shot. As for the highlights of Gene’s live performances, the particularly interesting one is “Do You Love Me,” including the peaceful scene where dozens of staff members go up on stage during “I Love It Loud.” At this point, Gene pointed to a member of the audience and asked, “Can you play the drums?” The 15-year-old Vincent was chosen and joined the band. It was a truly impromptu performance. During this song, beautiful Nordic fans appeared in large numbers, and Vincent was called by Gene again for the final song, “Christine Sixteen,” which erupted in a huge crowd.
