Radio ad for KISS Creatures of the Night tour in Bloomington, MN February 18, 1983
Linked me to your website, Very Cool! Didn’t even know about it. Good job Mike!………E
LOVE. IT. Thanks for posting this, Mike! If there is ONE KISS show/tour that I’ve never seen, that I could go back-in-time and see, “Creatures of the Night” @Met Center is it!!! One of my all-time favorite KISS albums, love the video footage from that tour, and the Met Center was my favorite MN sports/concert venue back in the day… Many great North Stars/concert memories from that place… Hell, I even saw the “Ice Follies” there back when I was 7 or 8 (late 70’s), LOL!
Brian, that was my first KISS concert. Did you see the photos I posted from that show?
No, now that you mention them, though, I’ll take a look… Thanks for the heads-up! FYI-My first KISS show was “Hot in the Shade” @Met Center, 1990
So I’m just wondering, as a fan of the band, did you know going into the show that Ace would not be appearing, or did Vinnie catch ya off-guard that night?
When I saw the tour ad in the paper, the one above, I noticed it did not look like Ace, but I had no idea Ace was gone. I remember first thinking, did Ace change his makeup? I didn’t matter to me because being a fan since 76 I was finally going to see them in concert. No disappointment at all at the show.
That’s funny… that’s exactly what I thought.. Ace changed his makeup. I didn’t know Ace wasn’t there until I bought the jersey and looked at it…
Michael! Long time no see! I always wondered what you were up to. Its been years but I knew you when you worked at SouthTown. Anyways. That was my first Kiss show too! I remember the moment they announced it, I freaked! We waited out all night long at the Met and still only got lower level, right about where you were but then when they returned for Lick it Up we were first row! 😉 Still have pics from all the shows.
Marty, can you refresh my memory… did you also work at Southtown? I would love to see your photos, are they online?
No I never worked at Southtown though I was there enough you would think I did LOL I ran into you again a few times at the shows when they came in town but haven’t seen you since, I think it would have been Hot in the Shade possibly. I see you have been very busy with your life with a very impressive resume. Funny that I have been doing online marketing since 1998 as well.
I saw all the KISS tours in MN from Creatures through Asylum, plus some on the Reunion tour.
You should be able to FB me for pictures, if not send me a quick Gmail @ marty.a.richie
Just sent you a FB friend request.
Hey Michael & Marty –
I’ve been seeing KISS here in Minnesota since 1979 when they played at the Met (with Judas Priest as the opening band)! The “Creatures” tour was my 2nd KISS concert and I’ve seen them every time they’ve been here ever since. I also have pictures of most of these concerts.
In short, we should talk, have lots of rare KISS relics/stories to share also. If interested, find me on Facebook and send “Friend” request.
Thanks guys,
Rob
