Bummer 😔

Lucky enough to have seen the 'original' line up when they put the makeup back on in the late 90's.

They co-headlined Monster of Rock with Ozzy that year.

I was amongst the first people to see the band live without make-up when I saw them at Leeds Queen's Hall (the first UK date of the Lick It Up Tour in October 1983). I still have my Gene Simmons-signed ticket stub – I saw him arrive in a huge limo and ran to catch him as he got out. He was *HUGE*!

EDIT: Bon Jovi were supporting them too – just as they had started to break through. It was a great gig, I was right at the front and got a plectrum from Vinnie Vincent I believe.

^^^ Error – I think it was the Animalize tour that Bon Jovi were the support act.
