As a way of increasing sales Best Buy had a promotion that would offer the KISS Alive! boxset along with 2 bonus tracks "2000 Man" & "God Of Thunder"

'The Millenium Concert' was supposed to be released as Alive IV in 2000 but because of the shake up of KISS' parent label Mercury being swallowed by the Universal/Vivendi merger, Alive IV was shelved. Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley in 2001 on the US rock radio show Rockline expressed their frustration on its delay by attacking Island/Def Jam who swallowed Mercury and KISS was put on Def Jam with Staney saying "we don't look good in baggy pants to butt level" and Simmons saying "we don't know how to pronounce wassup properly and we don't have any criminal records so far but we do wear more makeup and clothes than your mom". Then Universal OK'd with KISS for using Mercury to release The Millenium Concert as Alive IV but then was shelved indefinitely as the band would release the Symphony: Alive IV album released on KISS Records/Sanctuary Records in 2003.
