I was there, I'm 60 now and still a member of the KISS ARMY! LOL

I'm glad you are enjoying it. I was about to toss the movie and only had it converted because I thought I had some other footage on it, but I didn't. I wish it was better quality but I was caught up in the moment and never thought for one minute that anyone would be watching this stuff 40 years later.

TVR Productions, this is freaking awesome!! I was there, first concert...Is it from first night(July 24th) or second (July 25th)? Thanks in advance!

I was there Memphis show 8/12/1979

I was there opening night July 24 1979. Still got my ticket seat #123 F 7. The band New England was the opening act. I was 11 years old, in the area that summer and on cloud 9 to get to see my heroes. And the smell that was in the air, definitely on cloud 9, lmao, but it was great! Thank you mom and step-dad for taking me!

Ditto...My parents who were immigrants, took me as well to that same show, my father turned to my mother, "Lina, do you smell that? thats the smell of marijuana!" LOL I was 10. Arkieokie, Do you remember a guy with a shiny belt rollerskating on the bottom floor before the show started? He was going aroung and talking to people but we were up in the nosebleeds. I think that was Paul because he had the same belt when he got onstage. I could be wrong.

I was there too!! My first concert , I’m still a Kiss fan. In July 25, I bought the New England album at Jimmy’s Music Center. Thank you for this video.

This is a must see video for any real kiss fan. For as many times as ive seen the dynasty stage, ive never seen it like this. The view it provides gives the actual effect of the stage and the lighting. Now i see why it was so hyped up to be in its glory. The stage being white allows the lights to effect the whole color scheme to fit that cool. Its incredible.

I saw in december after this in shreveport

I was 8 years old and lived in central NY at the time and remember hearing about the Springfield show on the radio. My dad would have taken me but he called up and it was sold out unfortunately.

I was at this particular concert that night and one thing I remember is that the show didn't start to almost 10 minutes to 11:00 at night the rumor was Ace frehley was late coming to the garden that night. Also I had great seats 9th row and the tickets were silver with the word kiss in big black letters on the ticket !!

This tour was my very first concert in 1979. I was 11 years old, it was at the Pontiac Mini-dome with Cheap Trick and New England opening. Judging by this footage, this was about how far away I was sitting too!

I was there that night too,I remember sitting in my seat leafing through the tour program looking at their new costumes before the show started.genes costume was a lot cooler in the tour book it had chains ,later it looked like tin foil. Lol Then I saw them again in September w priest instead of New England.

Those new outfits were getting a bit flamboyant. Paul was practically in pink lingerie (not that there's anything wrong with it). Cool that you saw Priest a couple of months later. I wonder why New England was off the tour.

I saw them on December 14 of that year. First time seeing them live. It was a spectacular show.

Saw them in Nassau Coliseum same 79 tour... I was 9 and my sister was 8... LOL Have since seen them a dozen times and met them backstage as well. The 70's were the best.

Wow the Dynasty stage looks kinda bizarre from this angle. What an experience though! I could only image the mystique of seeing the original 4 live, back when people had no clue what they looked like without makeup. And look at that crowd, no cell phones and people living in the moment! Really cool footage! 👍

I was surprised to see so many children there. It was like the circus, which was a far cry from when I saw them eighteen months earlier at MSG for the Alive II tour. That show was full of pot smoke and liquor. Two totally different shows. Kind of like watching Frankenstein and coming back a couple of years later and you get Herman Munster. All of the danger was replaced by child proof locks. But it was still a good show. I liked Dynasty when it was releases. And no, cohere were no cell phone.s everyone was in the moment, except me of course, who had his face behind a movie camera.

Yep. Video cameras for personal use did not exist in 1979. So, it was silent 8mm film or nothing. If you prefer nothing, then move on. Why bother watching when the description says there is no audio?
