Are you ready for the hottest band in the land? It's 1978 in Detroit, and pretty much any teenager who isn't a total wimp is totally stoked for the upcoming Kiss concert (as anyone who ever listened to Kiss Alive! knows, Detroit has always loved this band). But four proud members of the Kiss Army find themselves without tickets to the show, and one has to deal with a mother who is convinced that Kiss and their music are evil incarnate. Will they be able to foil scalpers, security, and paranoid parents to witness the fire-spitting, blood-puking, hard rock frenzy that is Kiss on stage? Detroit Rock City stars Edward Furlong, Sam Huntington, Natasha Lyonne, Giuseppe Andrews, and James DeBello as the representative members of the Teenage Nation; the original four members of Kiss (Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, Ace Frehley, and Peter Criss) play themselves, and Simmons also co-produced. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

paulpaul Re: Loudest concerts out there?
by paul in Concert DVDs
"I saw a KISS cover band called Strutter in a bowling alley once. They played the first KISS Alive! album verbatim. It was fabulous. That was by far the loudest show I've ever been to. It damaged my ears permanently. I thought it was somehow cool to go without earplugs. Message to kids everywhere: Wear earplugs. And watch Detroit Rock City. " [More]
