March 27, 1977
Spirit Temple - Kyoto, Japan
📸 Bob Gruen
“I was the official photographer on their tour of Japan. It was like KISSmania. The idea of their act has a lot of influence from the Japanese Kabuki in Japanese Theater. I felt like a general in the KISS Army when we were in Kyoto, the ancient capital of Japan. The first place KISS went to was a giant Buddha, which I didn’t know was a very sacred shine to the dead. I was in the cab and the bus with KISS was following the cab. I was showing the Polaroids to the cab driver and he would start driving and the bus would follow and we would go to that place. As we were coming up the hill to the shrine, I saw Mr. Udo {Tour Promoter} hustling down the hill. I didn’t know that he had tried to tell the monks who ran the place that we were coming. They objected strenuously. And rather than deal with a fight, he just kind of split. I didn’t have any idea what was up so we all just showed up and KISS started piling off the bus. I start telling them to get in front of the statue like it’s a state park or something. There was some kind of discussion going on in the corner with the Japanese talking to the translators. I said to the translators, "Just keep them busy for a few minutes.” I set the band up, we took a bunch of pictures. A bunch of kids ran over and got in the pictures. Then we figured out we were being thrown out and we left. So I showed the cab driver the next picture and everyone got back in the bus and followed the cab to the next shrine. All the people who had been at the shrine were so freaked out that KISS were there that they followed us the next place. So we had these huge crowds following us. By the time we left there and went to the third place, the Golden Pagoda, we had a huge line of thirty or forty cars following the KISS bus. So it was this giant parade through Kyoto. After the third place, it was such a big mob we had to beat it back to the hotel!“ - Bob Gruen

“You’re the one I want.”
I just thought of that but now I feel like making a small oneshot with that title.

Never thought I’d be making one of these but ART THEFT WARNING ⚠️
*Update 3/20/24: THIEF HAS CHANGED HER USER!! BLOCK AND REPORT @/bubblegumstitch56328
BLOCK @/rainbowpopcorn5768 on Instagram as well, she is also stealing art from there!!
Fellow artists of Kissblr please go check @/rockerchick754 ‘s blog and maybe report as well, they have stolen, cropped, and reposted a shit ton of people’s KISS fanart pieces and edits, mine included (these are just a few examples).
I have reached out multiple times via DMs, asking them to take my art out of their posts, and they have made no attempt to respond, despite being labeled as ‘active’, so I don’t think that they intend to ever stop, which is why I’m making this post.
Best thing to do at this point is report the posts with your respective stolen works and then block them from any blog you post your art on, or else it’ll probably end up stolen and reuploaded for use as a reaction image by them by the end of the day 😓
(Sharing is encouraged! Art theft is BAD!)
Damn, baby’s first callout post. I mean I guess this mean’s that my art’s finally good enough that people want to do this to it but at the same time. MISS GIRL. THOSE WERE VERY UNFINISHED SKETCHES. YOU GRABBED SHIT OUT OF THE BIN, YOU DIDN’T EVEN WAIT FOR ME TO POST SOMETHING FINISHED?!

Alive! Tour
Springfield Civic Center - Springfield, Massachusetts,
📸 Chip Rock and Norman Gray
“Using nearly every pyrotechnic device known to man, the New York group KIϟϟ presented a slickly packaged two hours of outrageousness to 10,000 roaring patrons at the Springfield Civic Center Sunday night. The quartet’s weird costumes and whiteface makeup almost managed to obscure the concert’s biggest outrage: KIϟϟ plays horrible music as poorly as any band in memory… As visual, visceral extravaganza, KIϟϟ is perhaps unequaled. Next time, the band may take the ultimate step and leave their instruments at home. Sunday night, the music only cluttered up the concert” (Springfield Union, 3/30/76).
