Hot In The Shade Tour
Stage setup
The stage was dominated by a large sphinx nicknamed Leon The Sphinx, mirroring the cover of Hot in the Shade. As the houselights dimmed, a humming sound would be heard from the speakers, while Leon opened his mouth, and let hundreds of thin laser beams out. The laser curtain had already been developed for the Dynasty Tour, but it had not worked properly, and was discarded after the first show. On this tour it worked perfectly. As Leon's mouth opened fully, Kiss would be revealed standing in silhouette, in the mist of laser beams. There was no "You wanted the best, you got the best" introduction on this tour; Kiss would just walk down onto the stage and open the show with "I Stole Your Love" and a fireworks display.
