Iconic American rock band KISS performed their final show at Newcastle's Utilita Arena on Tuesday, June 6, and this reviewer was lucky enough to attend their explosive farewell.
After previously seeing KISS at the arena on two separate occasions, in 2010 and 2019, I was massively excited to experience the rock and roll extravaganza for the third and final time.
On entering the arena, the first thing I noticed was how much the merchandise had gone up in price. Programmes were £35 and T-shirts were £45, which seems massively excessive and put me off buying anything, as I usually would at a concert.
