I guess I never read the liner notes on this one. Surprised most of it was recorded in Germany. I also looked up the set list of when it was filmed in June of 1983. If they could, they should release a full album like Cheap Trick did with the Budokan concerts.

released on this day in 1983.
Yes as my parents went through a horrible divorce I started acting up, like shoplifting like an idiot
Did you laff like an idiot hyena once you got to the parking lot?
I should do a youth shop lifting poll. I'm at zero.
No, I wasn't laughing or anything like that. Just acting like an idiot

Never realized there was a faggot on the cover

Hated this album as a kid. The album alone made me hate it as a 12yo. But now it is one of my favorite KISS albums.
Did you know fascism had the same Latin root?
Disclaimer: I'm not calling anyone a fascist here.
Fasces
(/ˈfæsiːz/ FASS-eez, Latin: [ˈfaskeːs]; a plurale tantum, from the Latin word fascis, meaning 'bundle'; Italian:
fascio littorio
) is a bound bundle of wooden rods, often but not always including an axe (occasionally two axes) with its blade emerging. The fasces is an Italian symbol that had its origin in the Etruscan civilization and was passed on to ancient Rome, where it symbolized a Roman king's power to punish his subjects,
[1]
and later, a magistrate's power and jurisdiction. The axe has its own separate and older origin. Initially associated with the labrys (Ancient Greek: λάβρυς,
romanized:
lábrys; Latin:
bipennis
),
[a]
the double-bitted axe originally from Crete, is one of the oldest symbols of Greek civilization.

I have a nice clean OG pressing, but I can't post here since I only listen to side A and that's it.
RIP Scott, the Scotsman. Cobain has a challenger for most tragic suicide.
One of my fave albums of the 2000s.
