Also... all of you on here saying you spent $10 on Kiss... you're all full of sh!t.

Especially when you're ALL over these Kiss threads, bitching about how bad they are, how much they suck, etc... most of you are closeted Kiss freaks, who are still butt-hurt over them not including the 2 drunk guys for the last 30 years...

I call hogwash...

No way to tell...countless concerts...I have bins of T shirts, comic books, magazines, news clippings, bootleg VHS tapes and the like. I stopped buying shit over the past several years.

you talking about me? YOU TALKIN' ABOUT ME?????

I'm 110% serial, $10 is likely an overestimation.

Thanks to Sludge I now know WAAAY more about KISS than the average Joe though. It's something I never could have predicted. THANKS SLUDGE!!

All the albums except the last 2....and The Elder. Have grown to like it a bit on Spotify now.

The Box set.

All the 90's home video's.

Few small knick knacks. Playing cards, 1 shirt, mug,

Couple issues of Tongue magazine

Hard to break to down but maybe about $1000 in total. Just really CDs, books, and concert tickets. The odd poster and calendar when I was young. Had half a dozen KISS gifts over the years.

I bought a ticket to a show on the Crazy Nights tour at the Dane County Coliseum, so that was probably somewhere around $15. That's pretty much it.

Last thing would have been a 1997 show. Had all the 70's, early 80's stuff in multiple formats through the years. Had a few posters in the 70's. That's about it

Do tickets to the Kiss/Def Leppard tour count if we left three songs into Kiss' set? :lol: We were there for Def Leppard (and the people watching).

Bought all the records released in the 70's

Saw the Love Gun tour - 1977 at the Cow Palace in SF.

During the 80's - I bought Creatures of the Night, Lick it up and Animalize.

Saw the Creatures of the Night tour, Lick it Up tour and Crazy Nights (Budokan, Japan)

Wanted to go to the 1996 reunion tour but couldn't.
.
I'm happy to watch the highlights of a Kiss concert on YouTube but that's about it.

Whatever the cost of the Dressed to Kill album would have cost in the mid 80's. It is the only thing I have ever purchased by the band. I also had KISS Alive 3 but that was given to me from a radio producer buddy back in college in 93 or something. I downloaded all the Kisstory box sets as well as all their instant live shows but didn't buy any. That was more about my wanting live shows by any band I sort of enjoyed. Not enough to buy but ok to throw on every once and a while.

I spent a fair amount proub. $5,000 in 40 Years. In the 90's I started selling Bootlegs Videos and T shirts. At that point I proub. made back my $5000 and then some. I'm glad they are over since I always feel the need to go see em again and at this point its pretty boring and more expensive each year.
