A pic from a KISS show last night. Notice the wall of white cabs is gone and replaced with a handful of smaller amps. Weird. KISS downsizing their backline has to be a sure sign of the coming Apocalypse, no?

Yeah, the end is coming, but KISS isn`t downsizing, they just moved all their REAL backline to the End Of Everything event - gonna be helluva gig

| | | They didn't play "Wall of Sound", I guess it would have been kind of silly without their amps.
It would have costed too much to ship their amps and their egos all the way to Australia so they chose one and pocketed the difference.

But the OX died nearly bankrupt and deaf in a hotel room with a hooker, and Gene has a fleet of private gold sex jets and lives with an ex Playboy centerfold.
