Did Mott the Hoople open for Kiss in the 70s I have what I was told what was supose to be presented as a back stage pass for a Kiss Mott show Can anyone help me here David.?

1975-"Mott" opened for KISS, at least they did in Richmond, Virginia. However, "Mott" were not Mott the Hoople. MTH broke up in 1974 with the defection of frontman Ian Hunter. The original drummer (Dale "Buffin" Griffin) and original bass player (Overend Watts) continued as simply "Mott" for 2 years after Hunter left. By July of 1974, 3 of the 5 original members of Mott the Hoople had left the band. Keyboardist Verden Allen, guitarist Mick Ralphs (who formed "Bad Company") and as mentioned Ian Hunter. Griffin and Watts hired a new guitarist and a new frontman, and along with (Mott the Hoople's replacement of Verden Allen) Morgan Fisher they toured simply as "Mott" from 1975 thru 1976 or '77. In concert they were a powerful band playing both original material as well as older MTH material. When I saw the Mott/KISS concert, many in the audience afterwards felt Mott were the better band, but it was the theatrics of KISS that stole the show.
