In the tour program for the band's final tour, Stanley reflected on the tour:
The Freedom to Rock tour is a big, awesome show, and the band is big and awesome. Anybody can pattern their show on what we've done in the past, but you'll never be us. That's why we're Kiss, and that's why we've been around 40 years. Kiss has multi-generational appeal because Kiss has an appeal that's timeless. Kiss isn't only about music. It's about an attitude, it's about a way of life and it's about a philosophy of approaching life. The idea of going for what you believe in and not stopping until you achieve or attain it. It's one of the great thrills and sources of satisfaction to see somebody who's brought their mother or father to a show and see these people really enjoying it and getting it.
