KISS resumed their End of the Road World Tour in Leipzig, Germany last night at Arena Leipzig. The start of their European leg was nothing short of epic. Before we even dive into the setlist and check out what they changed up from the US leg, just watch Tommy Thayer shredding at the gig, below:
Now that you've been properly KISSed, let's get into the gritty details of the kickoff. Being their final tour ever, the masked foursome make sure that nothing falters in way of stage production, props, and of course the setlist.
The shock rockers main setlist remains identical to what they offered on their North American leg. The night begins with insane theatrics as KISS ascend onto the stage to Led Zeppelin's "Rock and Roll." Then they go into anthem "Detroit Rock City" and continue to impress their fans as Paul Stanley flies over them and Gene Simmons BREATHES fire.
Drum solos, guitar solos, and bass solos are aplenty. Toward the end of the set, Stanley makes his way into the crowd during "Love Gun" and "I Was Made for Lovin' You." When the main set closes with "Black Diamond," the KISS army knows the night's not over yet.
For the encore, they start with Eric Singer on the piano for "Beth," showing a softer side to KISS. For the European leg, the band has officially changed out "Do You Love Me" with 1987's "Crazy Crazy Nights." Watch them performing it at the show in this fan caught video:
The night concludes on the iconic "Rock and Roll All Nite" before KISS say goodbye to their army for good.
