FACE PAINT RECORD AT DOWNLOAD?

In an attempt to set a world record for the most people made up as KISS congregated in one place, fans at Download Festival came en masse to Donington, and submitted themselves to the expert artists from FACE, the UK's official face painting organisation.

During a 2 hour period, FACE successfully made up 444 willing volunteers, a spectacular feat! We'll be keeping you posted on the official world record application which is being submitted next week.

Thanks Nienke for the photo.

KISS STOLE THE SHOW!

Rock veterans KISS stole the show on the first night of the U.K.'s Download Festival, storming the stage in full costume and their trademark make-up. The stars hit the stage in Donnington, England on Friday night (13Jun08), after being introduced as 'The hottest band in the world'.

The four members were lowered to the stage on platforms to kick off their pyrotechnic-filled show with the song Deuce. Singer/guitarist Paul Stanley paid an early tribute to the crowd, telling festival goers: 'Man, it seems like tradition every 10 years we come to Donnington. We couldn't have made it this far without you - we salute you Kiss army!'

They then launched into Strutter before playing their classic album Alive track by track, complete with synchronised dancing and plenty of fireworks, as frontman Gene Simmons pulled his trademark face, sticking his tongue out at every opportunity.

Stanley ensured the audience was fully involved and called on them to join in and sing along with the band. When they weren't quite loud enough for his liking, he teased them by playing the opening riff of Led Zeppelin's Stairway To Heaven - prompting the crowd to squeal with delight.

But Stanley wasn't prepared to go all the way, and joked, 'Nah. Not tonight - but it'd be great if 50,000 people could sing with us.' Their energetic performance also saw Stanley smash his guitar on stage in the finale, sending the crowd into a frenzy.

But the band weren't quite finished and returned for an encore, which saw Stanley lifted above the crowds on a wire and fly above fans, before concluding their set with Detroit Rock City.
