wrong. KISS invented the stage show. KISS invented four spotlights on each guy doing a guitar solo, a drum solo, a presentation. Th emost in demand techs working in the industry belonged to KISS. If you did lights or pyro or sound for KISS, you were the best in the world.
dude, the Rolling Stones in 1977 had nothing in the way of a stageshow that KISS had. KISS invented the art of the touring rock band. They pioneered the logistics in how touring and album marketing was done.
They were the first band in the world to put there names and band logo on their guitar picks.
There is so much stuff KISS invented in rock concert promotion they are now the norm.
KISS invented it. The best in the world, worked for KISS, not The Stones.
