Filled to the brim with the richness of live-show favorites, the record evokes Mike\u2019s memories of the pain and yearning associated with being a Kiss fan during the malaise-filled days of the band\u2019s post-makeup\/pre-reunion era. Kevin provides his reactions to hearing some of these songs for the first time and discusses the record's similarity to glam and pop of the 1970s. The guys also chat about what they\u2019ve been listening to as of late, with Kevin singing the praises of Fountains of Wayne as Mike offers a plug for his own guilty pleasure, the Bayside High and Drunk podcast. Mike also tries to play the opening riff to \u201cLet Me Know\u201d on his Vintage model V100PGM (a guitar which he is obviously very proud to own). Kevin has the last word, ultimately playing the proverbial \u201cmagik" card and journeying beyond the Kiss\/Rush\/Zeppelin troika with his selection for next episode\u2019s topic.
