Kiss, Motley Crue, and The Treatment 7/31/12 Birmingham, Alabama

If you had asked me a year ago if I thought I would be seeing Motley Crue for a second time, I would have called you crazy. I thought the first time would be the only time. I guess I was wrong. My cousin and one of my friends accompanied me on the two hour journey to see Kiss and MC. Earlier in the day, it rained and the whole front section by the stage was flooded in the amphitheater. There were even rumors that show was   going to be cancelled. This would have really upset me. I am not big on hair metal but I love Motley and a lot of time and money went into the trip. Luckily, the only problem we had was parking because half of the parking lot had been flooded. We finally found parking and we walked in and went to our seats. The first band was called The Treatment. They were from England and they were decent. Their accents were the cutest things ever. They played
World On Fire
Get The Party On
I Fear Nothing
The Doctor
Departed
Nothing To Lose But Our Minds
Shake The Mountain

After them was Motley Crue, the main reason I went. They played

Saints of Los Angeles
Wild Side
Shout at the Devil
Same Ol' Situation (S.O.S.)
Sex
Don't Go Away Mad (Just Go Away)
Home Sweet Home
Drum Solo
Guitar Solo
Live Wire
Primal Scream
Dr. Feelgood
Girls, Girls, Girls
Kickstart My Heart
Vince Neil sounded sick which caused his voice to be really off, but other than that, it was a great performance.

I am not a fan of Kiss but they played

Detroit Rock City
Shout It Out Loud
I Love It Loud
Firehouse (Gene breathes fire)
Love Gun (Paul flies into the crowd)
War Machine
Shock Me (Tommy and Eric jam)
Hell or Hallelujah
Bass Solo (Gene spits blood and flies)
God of Thunder
Lick It Up
Black Diamond (short Paul guitar solo)
Rock and Roll All Nite

It was a fun show and I got to meet The Treatment afterwards. :)
