NEW YORK, NY. (Top40 Charts/ VH1) - The KISSology DVD Series has proven itself a smash hit success with Volume One reaching 5 Times Platinum and now Volume Two reaching an unprecedented 6 TIMES PLATINUM sales success! KISS Fans can complete the ultimate KISS set this December when VH1 Classic Records releases "KISSology: Volume Three 1992-2000" the third and final installment of the KISSology collection on DVD Tuesday, December 18, 2007.
The set jumps right into 1992 with a complete performance recorded at the Palace of Auburn Hills in Detroit and goes straight through June 2000 with "The Last KISS" concert recorded at The Continental Arena in New Jersey. The grand finale brings the KISSology trilogy full circle, leaving audiences with the entire Coventry Concert. The milestone concert marks the first show of KISS in make-up captured on camera. The concert was sneaked on Volume One as an "Easter Egg" but can be seen in full-length for the FIRST TIME EVER on DVD.
"We knew that there would be strong demand for the KISSology series, but we are very pleased with its multi-platinum levels of success," said Paul DeGooyer, Senior Vice President, DVD/Audio/Electronic Games, MTV Music Networks and Logo. "We've truly enjoyed working with KISS to deliver this comprehensive anthology to their legions of fans. It's always exciting when creative and commercial success coincide."
A must-own for any KISS fan, the nearly ten hours of live KISS includes a total of six complete concerts, the MTV "Unplugged" show and an exclusive MTV "Unplugged" Behind-the-scenes documentary in the super expanded four disc set.
