Kiss Tickets and Hottest Show on Earth Tour Announced
Thursday, May 27th, 2010The Hottest Show on Earth is coming to North America! Kiss tickets will go on sale to the general public in select markets beginning June 4, with presale tickets on sale beginning Wednesday, June 2.
After 37 years and 80 albums sold, Kiss is still rocking! Known for their over-the-top shows, Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley promise a mix of greatest hits, backed by an incredible pyrotechnics show – exactly what fans have enjoyed during their European Tour which wraps up soon in June.
“We just finished playing the world, doing the biggest tour that we’ve ever done and we thought we were going to take a break,” Stanley said. “All of the sudden we started thinking ‘Nah! We’re having too much fun.’”
Lucky for us! Additionally, according to the tour announcement, “the legendary rockers are partnering with Guitar Center for Guitar Center On-Stage, an unsigned band competition that will provide emerging artists the chance to open for Kiss at 22 of the band’s tour stops.” Check out this clip for more!
The Kiss Hottest Show on Earth Tour kicks off July 23rd in Cheyenne, Wyoming and concludes on September 24th in Phoenix.
Can’t wait to learn more? Kiss will host their first-ever live chat on June 1st, giving loyal members of the Kiss Army an opportunity to ask them all their burning questions. Check out Kiss’ Facebook page for more info.
