Looks like a big place. It's a multi purpose concert/baseball venue. The place holds 50,000.

There should be a good crowd.

Latin and South America from my understanding are great places for rock concerts...big audiences and lots of energy in the crowd.

This explains why there's only 2 Mexican dates this time instead of the normal 3-4.

They played 4 shows last time in 2010 in arenas....They can't sell 2 shows in this huge place

That's correct... unfortunely. Tickets still available.

And the media here is talking more about Motley Crue than KISS

When was the last time Crue played Mexico City?

Both bands are HUGE there. I'm sure it'll sell out

Usually, they do Mexico City and one other show (Monterrey or Guadalajara). The larger bill this time caused them to upscale to a stadium. They've done Foro Sol before (1999), but usually it's been arenas.

It's selling well. My guess it that they'll certainly do 40,000+

They played 2 dates in Mexico City in 2010 at a smaller venue than this. This being a venue that holds 50,000 explains why they are only playing one show this time. Get it done in one night.

This is just taken from the ticketmaster web. According to my count, on the secctions with seats, left over 5000 tickest available.

The grey parts are sold out secctions, until now, 40.000+ per sure, I'm sure will looks almost sold out the suturday with the last minute buyers.

Nagging thought in my mind, new Monster song will be premiered here. The Devil Is Me is what I think.

Hmmm....I think think they'll hold out at least until Monterrey when they do their own show. More likely, I don't think they will play anything different until South America in November.

GeneDEUCE · Post by **GeneDEUCE** » Tue Sep 25, 2012 9:36 pm

When was the last time Crue played Mexico City?

may 2011

GeneDEUCE · Post by **GeneDEUCE** » Wed Sep 26, 2012 11:46 am

newspaper spread that came out on tuesday

NO OFFICIAL shirts are ready

KISS ARMY MEXICO magazine ready to go on sale at the show

Kissologist · Post by **Kissologist** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 9:55 am

I want that magazine! Wonder if the KISS Army Mexico guys will have a booth inside the venue?

Anyways... just hours away to attend the show

Shane_Penney · Post by **Shane_Penney** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 9:22 pm

Expecting a typical setlist for this one on Saturday.

Monterrey will be different, I think.

I don't think there's curfew down there and I don't know if they're bringing The Treatment along, I expect The Devil Is Me (or one of the encores...my Monster sense is tingling though) in the set for KISS, Looks That Kill will return for Motley.

Almost sure they'll play IWMFLY.

They always played it in all their visits to the country

GeneDEUCE · Post by **GeneDEUCE** » Sat Sep 29, 2012 2:40 am

I don't know if they're bringing The Treatment

NO Treatment on this show.....AGORA a Mexican band will open the show

I want that magazine! Wonder if the KISS Army Mexico guys will have a booth inside the venue?

KISS ARMY MEXICO won't have any stand.........the magazine can be purchased at the local stands selling bootleg merchandise

Hard to tell considering the photo is taken from about 10 miles away.

It's a relevant question if someone can tell you the time that it begins at the venue. Then you can do the math...

Do any of you guys in Mexico city know if KISS is going to be tommorrow on tv (VOZ MEXICO) ?

Kissologist · Post by **Kissologist** » Sat Sep 29, 2012 6:39 pm

Security asked to leave the seats because of risks of electric storm. But nobody is leaving the venue

sakke72 · Post by **sakke72** » Sat Sep 29, 2012 7:24 pm

I am sure they are gonna play those Mexican gigs without any new songs except HOH. They have not practised anything new yet, that is for sure, and it is not how they do the things...
