Kiss played a small show for less than 100 people in Austin, Texas this past weekend. Shortly before the start of the tour they performed at the Vulcan Gas Company at a private event of the tobacco manufacturer Philip Morris International. In total they performed 14 songs. Video recordings of it and the complete set list can be found here in the article. The performance of private concerts is usually not made public by the musicians themselves – not least because they are usually paid handsomely for it, but sometimes not because the organizer does not fit the band’s image. Kiss bassist Gene Simmons says he’s never touched drugs before – now he’s performed in front of a tobacco company.

Several short recordings of the gig are circulating on Facebook. Writer Michael Cavacini posted a recording lasting more than an hour on his website:
