KISS is terrible, but Flo Rida puts on an awesome show and has a shite load of recent hits. Hopefully he's the closer.

You never know who's going to put on a good show, though. Kid Rock was actually great and went until the wee hours of the morning (from what I remember).

That happens though when you let a 20something be an "event planner"

This is better than the country acts of the past few years. Nothing will beat Journey and Styx from 2007 IMO.

I am actually excited about this. I have always said that KISS is the only semi-hard rock band that could successfully play Endymion. I don't really like their music but they are fun live. That is all that matters at Endymion. After seeing Luke Bryan defecate over all that is music 2 years ago this will be a welcome relief.

This is hysterical. Would love to know the budget. You could pay the Soul Rebels 5k and they'd blow the roof off the place.

Good work, Endymion.

Not any worse than fricking Pitbull.

He played his own songs on the speakers and said Dale every few minutes.

Terrible!

I like KISS, BUT they fricking blow live. I saw them at voodoo a few years ago and it was one of the worst live acts I've ever seen.

They might be OK if Paul Stanley keeps his fricking mouth shut between solos. And no one cares about Simmons stupid blood spitting bass solo.

That said, I'll take them over Pitbull, Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood and whatever other shitty country and pop stars they trotted out the last 4 years. Maroon 5 actually put on a good show 5 years ago. I don't like their music, but they were high-energy and got the crowd involved.

Steve Tyler actually did a good job last year.

Florider is not bad and everyone knows the words to half of KC's cheese music. I'm sure they'll be fine too.

This should be a better year musically than it has been the last 4 years.

My kids actually love KISS. After some scooby doo meets KiSS movie they saw that's all they want to listen to. I doubt Endymion is the time to introduce them to the band live. Might be too much for a 10 and 6 y/o!
