KISS is a unique rock band. They have an army, a navy, and the craziest fans in the world. Journalist Stefan Frommann has been a loyal follower for 48 years. He saw almost 100 concerts, met Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley for personal interviews, he was backstage and in the recording studio with Simmons. In this book, he tells the stories of 30 fans from 16 countries, each a special KISStory, unique and emotional. The reader enters a magical world of collectors, tattoo lovers, creatives, imitators, insiders, and rebels. Those who love KISS will find themselves in it. Those who have not known KISS before will be amazed at a world they would not have thought possible.

End of the Road

03 December 2023

So that's it, after starting in 2019 the End Of The Road tour has literally come to the end. We weren't able to make the trip to NYC but being able to attend virtually via PPV was fantastic. The show itself was exactly the same set list as the other shows, but as usual a fantastic performance of classics, fire breathing, blood-spitting & a huge amount of pyrotechnics to literally go out with a bang. 

Right from but at the very start we were told there would be a "surprise" at the end. We can't have been the only people wishing for some kind of special guest for the last Rock & Roll All Nite, I knew it was unlikely but maybe all the talk in the press recently from ex-members was just a decoy?... sadly not, however the big surprise was that KISS are becoming avatars (see video below)! 

So that's it, not really sure where we go from here, there's now a big emptiness in the KISS world. Will there be any new material, non-makeup shows, blu-rays, box sets? Who knows what else the future brings, we will have to wait and see.

One thing though, if this is going to become an Alive V then Deuce might need to come from night #1 as the whole second line was missed. Poor Old Jim.

Don't forget you get a replay option that can be used up to 1st Jan.
