It’s time to crank up the tunes… and FEAR as we bring you the mechanical mayhem that ruined childhoods and explained way too much about one of the biggest bands of the 70s!! You wanted the best, but what you got is KISS MEETS THE PHANTOM OF THE PARK!! Here to help make sense of this rock n roll nightmare are two old friends and Returning Champions, Dennis Satterfield and Scot Burklin (the Inside The Idiot Box podcast)!! Along the way, we talk bad evil plans, assemble a human pyramid riot, ride the Giant Flicking Tongue, consult the film’s very explanatory tie-in novelization, jump on the robot barbershop quartet trend of 1978, and meet the Schmooniversal Schmonsters!! All this, plus we struggle to understand all the KISS band members' power sets and accents, play a robotic version of Choose Your Own Deathventure, and karate fight albino ape robots!! That’s what you thought this movie was about, right? Karate fights with albino ape robots - cause it is. 

Check out Dennis & Scot's very funny podcast, INSIDE THE IDIOT BOX, wherever you get your podcasts!!

Epsiode 51:

PSYCHO CIRCUS (25th Anniversary) 

After the success of the 1996 Alive Worldwide Reunion Tour, everyone asked one question "what's next?"   Surely the band would record a new album, and they did just that... well kinda.  In 1998, Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, Ace Frehley, and Peter Criss entered the studio to record their first album together since 1979's Dynasty.  Much like Dynasty, Ace and Peter would practically appear on the album in name only, with the exception of Peter only playing drums on one track and singing lead vocals two.  Ace only played guitar on two tracks and sang on 2 tracks.  The remaining drum and guitar tracks were played by Kevin Valentine and future KISS lead guitarist, Tommy Thayer, both uncredited.  Most of these decisions were made by producer, Bruce Fairbairn.

On this episode, Nick, Nikko, and Rob discuss the 25th Anniversary of Psycho Circus.  Taking off the KISS goggles and ignoring the drama in the recording studio, is there a solid KISS album underneath the tracks of Psycho Circus or this just KISStory repeating itself?  So, take off the drama blinders, raise your glasses and get ready to toast the anniversary of Psycho Circus...welcome to the show!

We talk about all things that go bang, boom, thump, and crash! Poor Robert must suffer while 3 drummers in one room chat about the greatest of all time and the brightest of the unsung heroes of the rock n’ punk n’ metal drumming community.

This week we discuss all 3 with 2 of our favorite drummers in the world that both hosts have had the pleasure of sharing the stage with in the past. Kent and Rob come across like scholars and gentlemen… even though they’re drummers!

Songs this week include:

1. Poster Children – “Tommyhaus” from Tool Of The Man (1993)
2. Chain Poets – “Little Tin Toys” from Chain Poets (2000)
3. Death – “Let The World Turn” from Survival Of The Fittest (2023)

Episode 37: The Boot I - Dynasty Tour The Omni 1979

As 2022 comes to a close one looks back at the past and remembers what lead us to this place in time, that was the previous episode. Now we look towards the future. The Future with the band, future KISS related items... and the future of RBTE of course. We are so excited for what's in store for this show, including the episode you are about to hear, and a new segment that we are adding to the show, bootlegs!

The Dynasty Tour 06-30-1979 Atlanta, GA The Omni, Soundboard (Partial)

A big part of any major KISS fans collection are bootlegs. 2022 saw some major leaks this year, it rekindled the bootleg discussion on the show. The latter part of 2022 saw the "release" if you will of a soundboard recording that most fans were not aware of. Where it came from we do not know but what we got from this set was amazing look at the tour! Atlanta Georgia at the Omni on June 30th 1979 on the Dynasty tour. This this the peek of the bands popularity and the drop that is about to happen inside and outside of the band. In this episode Nick, Nikko & Rob discuss Atlanta, GA The Omni 1979 and The Dynasty tour!

This is how we close out 2022, and ring in 2023 with a kick in the but from our BOOT!

KISS Off The Soundboard: Des Moines 1977

The Year 1977,  KISS is on it's ALIVE II tour and makes a stop in Des Moines Iowa!?..... that's where we pick up the latest Off The Soundboard album. This is fourth in the series and the second in a row featuring the classic lineup of Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons, Ace Frehley and Peter Criss, the last one being Donington 1996. This is KISS in its prime and dare we say at it peak in 1977.  KISS is everywhere and on all types of merchandise TV appearances, the radio and on the edge of collapse if they are not careful. This is a band that is at the top of it's game and can do no wrong. Is that what this release shows? How does it sound.. and is it the best of the series so far? Nick, Nikko, and Rob answer all these questions and more. The three generations of KISS fans dig in to what is going to be a special Off The Soundboard album!
