I'll still listen to the stuff they did, say, circa 1975-1982 now and then. I still get a bang out of that stuff.
Far as the band's career, I can't say I've really cared one way or the other if they kept touring since...oh, right about the time that Detroit Rock City flick came out. I recall when Criss quit in 2000 or 2001 or whenever it was, then Frehley left a year or so later, then Criss came back for a tour and then left in...2004? Didn't care about any of it, because even by THEN the whole classic Kiss makeup reunion thing had gone on a few years too long. And all that was twenty years ago.
When I saw 'em live a couple years ago, I basically went because the missus wanted to go. It was an okay night out, nothing more/nothing less. What I SHOULD have done was see the band during the 1996-1998 period when they first reunited, when I was still young enough to actually be enthused that they were back together, because then the concert would have meant a bit more to me than the one I recently saw did. But, whatever.
