There will never be another Kiss. The end of an ERA, like most kids in the 70s, they were a huge part of my life since I was 16 and I'm 60 now. I feel like they are part of my family.
I would prefer if its was the original lineup and not the 2 imposters Eric and Tommy but oh well,i saw the original band during the reunion several shows and 2 of their their first 'farewell' with the original lineup as well,i got to see them the way i wanted to see them ans i am turning 54 and have been listening to their classic stuff since i was like 5 and all.
About to hit 60, been following since the age of 12. What a wild ride it’s been. The number of rock bands Kiss has influenced and helped along the way is staggering. Many thanks to them for all the great memories.
@@ronaldolaquidara64 because the public had lost interest and saw it all as a gimmick. They had to take off the makeup to shake things up and appear relevant to the times.
For sure I will miss them their music make me go through some tough times in my life. Thank you fan since 78 when nothing goes right listen to K I ⚡️⚡️
Whatever I think of the last decade or so, this is awfully cool and a grand way to end things (this time, anyway). Peter was the one who made want to drum and Kiss was the first band I ever loved. I thank them for the memories.
I just wish the original line-up could have kept it together over all of these years...I was there in 1976 when KISS played Hawaii, 3 row right of center and boy it was amazing.
KISS started and created using pyrotechnics and other bands trying us all pyrotechnics like KISS. no one comes close to KISS putting on a fantastic show.
I can understand Ace & Peter not being there, but I believe they deserve to get a statue and a copy of the proclamation. Because whether you love Ace & Peter or think they are washed up. Without them Gene & Paul WOULD NOT be there.
I remember being a 13 year old kid and being totally in love with them. The critcism they got was unreal. “They suck, it’s all about makeup and the stage show, no talent, they won’t be around in five years” etc. Yeah, well, to all the critics and naysayers, 🖕!!!
I’m heartbroken it’s actually over.. 😢 I love you gentlemen so very much. Congratulations on retirement and relaxing you deserve it for sure. 🎉😊 we will all be alright. 🤘🏻😝
Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer deserve to be there. They never once ruined a show. They never quit. As far as I'm concerned, this is the best lineup for the Big Finale. Ace could never EVER play the show Kiss does now. His 'shows' are awful. I'm proud to be a Kiss fan. They've been amazing. Great band.
Funny how Ace has released more albums than KISS since his departure from the band…… the thing you have to remember is that KISS would have never been KISS without Ace and Peter…… it was those four guys that made THAT sound which is KISS…. It’s nice that Tommy and Eric helped keep the makeup years of KISS going but they were not in the original band……. Eric was perfect for the Revenge days….. Tommy is just a leach……and by the way…. Ace has been touring for the past 20 years…. He still can play, perform and bring the goods live…..
Been a KISS fan since i was 9 yrs old i am 57 now and i can't wait till this Menudo-KISS band comes to an end this tour is a joke there is nothing special or magical about these four on stage 2 old farts and 2 imposters and now we learn from Ace Gene was lying about asking Ace & Peter to perform # Original4Forever with respect to Carr & Kulick
@@HanzonMacaquethey haven’t pissed their careers away…. lol….. Ace has released more albums than Kiss since 2000….. and they sound way better than the two that Kiss released since 2000…….
Kiss will tour after the farewell tour and it’ll be the “rebirth” tour with tons of new merchandise. KISS has been on like 10 Final Concert Tours". Their last concert will probably be at Gene's funeral.
Kiss died in 1977 right after the R&R Over Tour they got cheesy with all of merchandising and became a kiddie band, yeah yeah yeah, I know I know "they sold ____ million albums, made ____dollars, blah blah blah, this group you see here if in 1976, you'd had a crystal ball and you'd have shown the 1976 Gene & Paul what they became 34yrs into the future from 2000 on they'd have thrown up!
Wow! How rude of Gene and Paul to not let Eric and Tommy speak or flip the switch. You would almost get the impression they're not that important for the time they've spent in KISS.🤔
If I was Eric or Tommy, I would be embarrassed to be up there. Not knocking them...I love them. But this has nothing to do with them. They should have invited ACE and Peter as they are from NY
@@fraudingenskirchen3909Ace is releasing yet another killer album….. and can still tour….. how many albums did this version of Kiss release since Ace left in 2000? Two….. how many albums did Ace release since leaving in 2000? In 2024 it will be five…..
@@LOUIS-np6befunny how you are simping for Eric and Tommy who had nothing to do with Kiss’s success….. have they played any of the songs of the two albums that they released with Eric and Tommy? Nope…… plus Eric and Tommy are literally filing in someone shoes, face paint and character…… Ace isn’t playing any of Tommy’s solos but Tommy is is paying nothing but Ace’s solos….. get it?
To every member of KISS Paul , Gene , Ace ,Peter, Eric C , Vinnie , Mark , Bruce, Eric S & Tommy thanks for 50 years of music and memories.
Agreed!
Carr was KING.
What does the fox say?
I’d throw Bob in there
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 yes 🤘🏻❤️
The band is gone, but their songs will remain with us forever!!
There will never be another Kiss. The end of an ERA, like most kids in the 70s, they were a huge part of my life since I was 16 and I'm 60 now. I feel like they are part of my family.
I'm 60 as well and got my first KISS album at 12..what an incredible run for all of us!

I attended a “Dynasty” show at age 7. Next concert was “Creatures”. I had to stop going awhile back from frustration.
@@JeffTullock-fs4deahhhh poor little window licker. You want a tissue? 🐔🍭
Ace , Peter, Paul and Gene started this band in New York city, nothing beats the originals.
Yesss you said it the Original 4 are KISS...
They never should of taken off the make up/face paint...
Did they ever say why they did?? 🎸🥁👍🏻
With Eric Carr and Bruce Kulick so close😍
@@ronaldolaquidara64 because the public had lost interest and saw it all as a gimmick. They had to take off the makeup to shake things up and appear relevant to the times.
Paul and Gene started the band. Peter auditioned, then they found Ace.
Thank you Kiss for all the great music over 50 years Your music will live on forever for future generations to discover & enjoy
Thank you Empire State Building for honoring KISS on this special occasion. "Au revoir!" to the band I've been a fan of since 1977.
They Deserve It! 50 years is a long journey.
Thank you KISS. This journey together has been wonderful, Forever in my heart.
So happy to see KISS celebrated this way. The most phenomenal band ever
Thanks, Boys.....all lineups, for 50 years.
In a perfect world, Eric Carr would be crossing the finish line with them. Thank you to EVERY member for their contributions over 50 years.
Thanks for 50 years of Rock and Roll!!!! I wish you the best, Gene, Paul, Ace,, Eric, Vinnie, Mark, Bruce, Tommy, Eric S.
KISS will always be the greatest and most badass bands of all time
ahhh... no lol
FACTS 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
For sure I will miss them their music make me go through some tough times in my life. Thank you fan since 78 when nothing goes right listen to K I ⚡️⚡️
KISS is NY! Rock on forever and ever
An era has came to an end, thanks for all the great memories!
Thank you for the amazing music you have given the world for the past 50 years! Incredible... take it easy fellas.

My Life changed for their being and I will die still living with that influence. In every way they are about hard work and perseverance.
I just wish the original line-up could have kept it together over all of these years...I was there in 1976 when KISS played Hawaii, 3 row right of center and boy it was amazing.
You guys were my best friends when i didn't have any
Thank you so very much kiss
Thank you KISS! They have been a huge part of my life since I was 13-14 years old.
Danke Jungs für all die ganzen schönen Jahre, die Musik und die Konzerte. Bitte bleibt noch lange Gesund und Rockn Roll all Nite Party Everyday ⚡⚡
The end of an Era 😢 Bitter sweet after 50 years a fan. But they all deserve to enjoy retirement. Thank you boys for the music ! Rock On! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘❣️
Thanks Kiss....
53....and i got my first album for my 8th birthday!

Agreed 100% but that's what you get from two of the most insensitive greedy boys in the world!
Im sure they arranged to have them not mentioned
This angers me to no end! Long Live ACE and PETER!
You will live. Drama queen

Love you guys
I’m heartbroken it’s actually over.. 😢 I love you gentlemen so very much. Congratulations on retirement and relaxing you deserve it for sure. 🎉😊 we will all be alright. 🤘🏻😝
The greatest band of all time!!!! KISS
I last saw them at MSG in '97 during their first final tour. Was such a success they've been retiring ever since.
Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer deserve to be there. They never once ruined a show. They never quit. As far as I'm concerned, this is the best lineup for the Big Finale. Ace could never EVER play the show Kiss does now. His 'shows' are awful. I'm proud to be a Kiss fan. They've been amazing. Great band.
💯👍
Ace is fine. He plays all the time.

Me neither. How ever did you figure out the internet?

Wooooow super cool ! I love It ❗ ❤❤❤😍❤️🥰🔥🔥🔥🔥🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
It has been the farewell tour since 2000.
Ace and Peter should be there.
should have played New York Groove at the end.
Maybe they should have respected being a part of the experience instead of pissin their careers away. Just maybe. 😂

Awesome !🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
NICE! A GREAT way to end a somewhat tumultuous career! Well done KISSers! \m/
Kissarmy México 🇲🇽
They should have brought Ace and Peter back also. They should have let Tommy and Eric have their own characters. JS!
Notice Eric and Tommy didn't dare touch the light switch...lmao..
The switch is bigger than Yoko … I mean Eric.
If you guys hate KISS why are you here?
YEAH 😂 THEY ARE SOOOOOO JEALOUS!!!!!!😂
@@LOUIS-np6be I didn't say they were jealous.
KISS Army forever, Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons and Eric Singer and Tommy Thayer ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ 1:19
@minibikemafiathey are “scabs”
You know, for a minute there. I thought they're gonna be humble and let. Eric and Tommy pull the switch. What was I thinking?
NO ! KISS IS ACE FREHLEY,PETER CRISS, PAUL STANLEY, GENE SIMMONS
100%
Thank you for keeping the clones quiet.
New York Groove
All members of KISS, past and current, should be there which is Paul, Gene, Peter, Ace, Eric S, Tommy, Bruce K, and Ace.
Kiss will tour after the farewell tour and it’ll be the “rebirth” tour with tons of new merchandise.
KISS has been on like 10 Final Concert Tours". Their last concert will probably be at Gene's funeral.
Gotta get them shekkels!
I really wish they would have been in makeup for this. Just would have solidified their mythic stature.
One wishes the switch was a time machine to take us all back and start it all over again.....
Eric and Tommy are not New Yorkers and they should call peter and Ace and thank them for this experience they’re having.
Love that they are playing Unplugged
something is wrong there. Two of them are NOT 50 years with kiss.
Where are Ace and Peter?
I think they made it.
Only half of the real Kiss are there
THIS IS 2023 KISS !!!!!WOW 😂 GO TOM AND ERIC TOTAL PROFESSIONAL TEAM!!!!
@@LOUIS-np6bethey are still not Ace and Peter….. you don’t get it at all…..
DAMN it should have been Ace & Peter there how sad oh well I guess
It’s the end of an era.
Kiss my love ❤❤❤❤
It’s hard to belive that Kiss soon id history
How long until Gene runs for office?
Kiss died in 1977 right after the R&R Over Tour they got cheesy with all of merchandising and became a kiddie band, yeah yeah yeah, I know I know "they sold ____ million albums, made ____dollars, blah blah blah, this group you see here if in 1976, you'd had a crystal ball and you'd have shown the 1976 Gene & Paul what they became 34yrs into the future from 2000 on they'd have thrown up!
Wow! How rude of Gene and Paul to not let Eric and Tommy speak or flip the switch. You would almost get the impression they're not that important for the time they've spent in KISS.🤔
They were not the original members….. they helped keep the band going along with many others….
Don't over think it too much. Just enjoy the video ✌️
Saludos desde Córdoba Argentina ❤🎉❤🎉❤
_I was made for faking it baby_
_You were made for paying me_
_I can’t get enough of your money_
_Can you please keep paying me_
See u on the 2nd
Did anyone tell Eric what was going on?
He looks lost 😂
Where’s the rest of KISS? That’s an imitation.
Peter and Ace Don't want too and I don't blame them
Tribute Band.
I bet Paul can’t wait to kick off those lifts.
Lol I love how peter criss verse was playing at the beginning!
No one in wheel chairs yet! Why quit now. Come on let’s do 60 years. The Rolling Stones just announced a 2024 tour.
No Ace or Peter sigh .. still awesome!⚡️
Lol farewell to 2 original members and 2 impersonators..
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I hope Paul is feeling better. He doesn’t seem to be doing great here.
Eric looks like somebodys "cool aunt"
You got it wrong ace & Peter. Dude!
If I was Eric or Tommy, I would be embarrassed to be up there. Not knocking them...I love them. But this has nothing to do with them. They should have invited ACE and Peter as they are from NY
Eric may not be the original, but he’s been in the band longer than Peter ever was.
Ace and Peter declined. Stop blaming Paul and Gene
@@Trust_In_Jesus82Wearing Peter's makeup and singing songs Peter wrote. Tommy and Eric's contributions were minimal at best. They are sidemen.
@@brianstrutter1501They were offered pennies on the dollar to play with two imposters for a couple songs. I'm glad they passed.
👍😊🇹🇹
Eric seems a bit lost and intrigued by the giant switch.
I work at LAX, I see Gene Simmons all the time. DRY HAIR, WRINKLE FACE TIRED GLASSES. THE GUYS A RETREAD😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This is the Gena and Paul show. This is not kiss. Where's Ace and Peter?
Ace and Peter hatten nicht das Durchhaltevermögen wie Gene and Paul. Think of drucks and alcohol.

Too bad the original members weren't there. Even thought PETER was on the vocals initially in the background.

Sad this was recorded through a sock....
