Kiss gets mocked a lot but they were a heckuva band.

Everybody jumped on the tapping and shred schtick for awhile.

Exactly - KISS was awesome LONG before VH and a KISS concert is like no other. Seen em ALL and KISS puts on a show that VH could only open for

any kid that starts learning how to "tap like Eddie" is better than this opening mockery from Bruce Kulich!                                                                                                                                   
There was time Kiss was great but comparing them To VH is pure lack of knowledge in music theory
At least you like music, so I let it slide Ipne

What the living fuck is Bruce Kulick wearing.

Brutal attire.

KISS’s best guitarist, technically, but the cat just couldn’t cultivate a decent look during his time in the band.

Eddie VH is one of the greatest ever - but David Lee Roth was garbage. Fckn guy can’t sing. Imagine him trying to cover Dio - lol. Even the VH brothers admitted that they thought DLR was tone deaf.

It’s subjective - anyone who thinks there are “definitive” answers was probably one of the Dungeons and Dragons geeks in school.

KISS had kick ass concerts - were the greatest band ever - no not IMO. But if someone else thinks so that’s no sweat off my balls.

I actually like (early) Kiss better than VH. Love Eddie and Alex's playing, but many of their songs on each album didnt do much for me.
The handful that did = amazing, but Roth kinda sucks.

I like heavier shit, example for Kiss - Black Diamond, 100,00 years, God of Thunder, Dr. Love, Hotter than Hell, Deuce, etc.

I am glad I finally did see VH on their last tour though. (Saw Kiss 5-6 times, always great). (Saw original band on Psycho Circus, great album).
They should hang it up now though, Paul's kinda shot.
