Any version of KISS has been capable of performing Shandi in full live, like they did in 1980. All we've ever gotten since the reunion shows in 97 was Paul doing it solo.
He barley did it this tour due to his voice being shot. They dropped a few things, like I Was Made, this time due to voice issues.
It would have been cool to see them do it in full in previous years or even better, when Paul did his Live To Win tour!!

The only version that was able to do it PROPERLY was the Vinnie version. If Vinnie wouldn't have jumped ship, they would have eventually done songs like this when the Pop Rock market of the late 1980's demanded it.
Vinnie's chord voicings would've been immaculate for this tune and Carr was the only Kiss drummer that could pull it off without sounding like a 3 year old child or a paint-by-numbers robot. Paul's voice would've been at his range peak and Gene... --- ... well... --- Gene hasn't played a good bassline since Ace played his parts for him.

i just wanna hear the song ONE time instead of the stuff we always get.
im sure if they dug out creatures, shandi, partners in crime etc, that no one state side would go "oh that sucks"
they gotta play more stuff they never have or rarely play
