History

[edit]

At the Cobo Hall show,Paul Stanley began usingPete Townshend's famous ritual of smashing his guitar, employing it after "Let Me Go, Rock 'n' Roll", until it was eventually done after "Rock and Roll All Nite" in later years.

In the tour program for the band'sfinal tour, Stanley reflected on the tour:

I saw a pattern emerging with us on the road. Every night, I'd ask somebody before the show, "How are we doing?", which meant, "What's the attendance?" One night they said, "It's sold out" and then the next night I'd hear the same thing. All of a sudden it was becoming the norm. For me the first realization that things were on an upswing was when we played the Hara Arena in Dayton, Ohio. Before the show I went on stage, looked out through the curtain and saw this big crowd and said to myself, "My God, this is really happening!"[2]
