I don't have my copy of "KISS Alive Forever" handy but I don't believe "Deuce" was performed on the Creatures tour. However, the "This Day In KISStory 1982" news item from 12/29 on KOL says this:

"Rock and Roll Hell," "Keep Me Comin" and "Deuce" were also performed at the early shows of the tour.

I've often thought about how Vinnie would have ripped an amazing solo in "Deuce"....

No, not deuce on the tour!

Sometimes I seriously think KISS fans know more about their history than they do.

That is pretty much on the money.

I bet they planned Deuce for Creatures tour during rehearsals but decided against it last minute for whatever reason.

It's interesting that such a staple didn't get played after 1976 until 1988, besides one show in 1978 where the lighting rig collapsed and they played it as a "thank you" to the audience for waiting patiently while it was fixed.

It is strange. I did get bored of it myself but after I started playing it in a band I realised how much fun it is to play.
