Kiss Down Under
Ready for one of THE greatest bands in rock'n'roll history with one of THE most spectacular shows
Australia will see this year?
Ready for a stage production called
'The Spider', moved by 38 computer controlled winches, featuring 220 automated lights, weighing in at 43,000 kgs, incorporating 900 pieces of pyrotechnics and powered by 400,000 watts of sound?
Add in showmanship that continues to thrill audiences around the world, some of the best damn rock anthems in music history and we know what band we're talking about -
KISS!
Get your face paint ready Australia because
Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons, Eric Singer and Tommy Thayer are on their way Down Under in
October as part of their
40th Anniversary world tour.
Kicking off at the Perth Arena on
Saturday October 3, then to
Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney, Newcastle and Brisbane, it's the news the rabid
KISS army fans have been waiting for!
Paul Stanley has a soft spot for Australia since the very first time he visited. He's been quoted as saying it's one of the greatest secrets on earth and probably better to keep it that way. He thinks the food, wine and women are all extraordinary and everyone has always welcomed him and made him feel like it is home.
With countless timeless hits like 'Rock'n'Roll All Nite', 'I Was Made For Loving You', 'Detroit Rock City', 'Love Gun', 'Shout It Out Loud', 'Lick It Up' and 'God Gave Rock'n'Roll To You', the
KISS legacy continues to grow, generation after generation.
KISS has just completed a Japanese tour, which coincided with the release of a collaboration single with the country's famous all-girl group
Momoiro Clover Z.
Momoiro Clover Z
The song
"Yumeno Ukiyoni Saitemina" (Samurai Son) – composed by
Paul Stanley – hit #1 on the
Japanese charts introducing
KISS to a whole new generation of fans. The tour ended with a show for 40,000 fans at the
Tokyo Dome, featuring the
Momoiro Clover Z girls joining
KISS for the encore.
