Yeah this guy is worth the $250,000 he’s demanding to jump up for encores at the last KISS show!

You guys want a Rocket Ride? No thanks we just had one.

of course he's not worth it which is why it would be perfect for the final show(s). Then entirety of present day KI$$ is a monument to things not worth it

I actually saw this happen once. It was a 3 sets a night cover band though. They played Cheap Trick Surrender..then 3 songs later they played Cheap Trick Surrender. No one in the crowd cared. It was already about 1am by then. Everyone was dancing, having a good time.

The Ace thing was different....everyone was like, WTF?

Alice opened and closed with School’s Out in the 2009/10 tour. Was odd.

Can't put finger on exactly who but I know some of these OHW acts have open/closed with their biggie cause it was really all they had... want to say QR may have done this when they were on the corn dog/biker bar circuit?

At least when know he's live.

The interaction between Ace and every groupie who stumbled out of Gene's hotel room in the '70s.

Europe sorta did the same thing with "Final Countdown" when that song was on fire in '86. Saw Sting last year and he opened with "Roxanne" with just him and a guitar, then played it later with the full band. He sounded great, but with such a deep catalog, why double dip?

But yeah, not the same as the Ace mess. You can see the band walk over like, "Should we tell him?"

I get the Roxanne deal... the acoustic open was a callback to the solo Secret Policemans Other Ball version he did back in 82.

What show was this at? I went looking at setlist.fm to see if it was listed, but didn't see it listed twice on any of his recent shows.

The fucking tempo is brutal. It’s like going to sleep

Sting endlessly double dips on choruses, so why not whole songs?

Not saying he isn't a talented musician or songwriter, but fuck his choruses are endlessly repetitive.

Steve Brown fleecing an album out of Ace at this point is elder abuse.

So is his new horse faced girlfriend making him tour in this condition.

Lmfao

Just watched this again. Absolutely great. "Looks like I'm playing the same song again".

I certainly wouldn't turn down a Rocket Ride from Ace.
