Off the Soundboard: Tokyo 2001, available in 2-CD or 3-LP formats, presents KISS' performance at the Tokyo Dome on March 13, 2001 with the line-up of Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, Ace Frehley, and Eric Singer.  The 21 songs on the release don't hint at the backstage drama that was then consuming the band on their farewell tour.  Long story short: it wasn't farewell after all, but did prove to be a goodbye to the original line-up of Simmons, Stanley, Frehley, and Peter Criss; Singer replaced the latter for the 2001 leg.
