  In April 1988, when KISS performed live in Tokyo, they were in the midst of their "Crazy Nights" world tour, promoting their album *Crazy Nights*, which was released in 1987. This album marked a significant moment in KISS's career as it showcased a shift towards a more polished, radio-friendly sound, a move that aimed to attract a broader audience following their earlier, heavier works. The Tokyo concert featured popular tracks like "Crazy Crazy Nights" and "Bang Bang You," highlighting their adaptation to the glam metal style prevalent at the time. Additionally, this concert was part of a resurgence for the band, as they were enjoying renewed commercial success after the earlier struggles of the 1980s. The live performance also demonstrated KISS's iconic theatrical presence, remaining a significant part of their identity even as they explored new musical directions.
