KISS Forever formed in late 2009 with the goal to provide a realistic KISS concert experience.  Boasting the full stage show and a sound that will make you believe you are at an actual KISS concert, KISS Forever will change everything you think you know about tribute bands.

        While some tribute bands try to replicate a KISS show exactly, we understand there can be only one KISS. Therefore, our live show is made up of the best from KISS' 1970's era, along with inspiration from some of their later years. Our show is unique while staying reminiscent of the original KISS.  We strive to include elements from all KISS eras.  The best way to describe it is a lotta KISS and a little bit of KISS Forever. We enjoy entertaining our entire audience, whether they are KISS fanatics or just looking for a good live band.

        An integral part of the KISS Forever live experience includes a fan photo opportunity allowing all audience members to interact with the band and take personalized photos with band members at the completion of the show.  This is always a big hit with the crowd and one of our favorite parts of our show.

        Our live show features one of two drum risers: an adjustable drum riser to elevate our drummer up to 5 feet high or a replica of the tank drum riser from the Creatures of the Night era.  Other elements of our live show include a lighted KISS sign, fog effects, flashing police beacons, laser lights, bass solo with blood spitting, fire breathing when permitted at venue, smoking and light up guitar effects and confetti cannons.  We strive to emulate the original KISS while at the same time adding in unique elements and effects that we have created.  This makes KISS Forever stand out from some of the other tributes that simply aim to copy KISS' 70's style show.

       Our full show runs approx. 2.5 hours but can be shortened if needed.  We have played with opening acts as well as providing entertainment for the entire night.  We generally take a 15 minute break near the middle of our set, which provides another opportunity for fans to take photos with us.

        Prior to the start of the show we are a low key group of guys, the only requirements we have from the host venue is to allow us as much time as possible to complete setup and sound check and to get into costume.  This entire process takes at least 5 hours.  It takes us about 1.5 hours to break down our stage after our show.

        All our equipment is designed to run on standard 120V outlets without the use of extra generator power.  We can supply our own PA system if needed which is powerful enough for most small to medium sized clubs.  We prefer a venue with a stage, however we have played many clubs that do not have a stage with a positive response from those in attendance. 

       Our live show has been enjoyed by both children and adults.  We have played outdoor festivals, fundraisers, clubs, bars and private parties.  We are all professionals and have regular jobs outside of the band and we bring this same level of professionalism to our live show.  This band exists as an escape for us, where for a short period of time we get to step out of our daily lives and put on what we believe is one of the best KISS tribute acts around.  Whether or not you are a KISS fan, it is almost impossible not to have fun at one of our shows!
