AceShowbiz - KISS is closing the final chapter in their career. The heavy metal band has announced the North American dates for their worldwide farewell tour called "End of the Road" and promised that their last show will surely be one to remember forever.
"All that we have built and all that we have conquered over the past four decades could never have happened without the millions of people worldwide who've filled clubs, arenas and stadiums over those years," the band said in a statement. "This will be the ultimate celebration for those who've seen us and a last chance for those who haven't. KISS Army, we're saying goodbye on our final tour with our biggest show yet and we'll go out the same way we came in... Unapologetic and Unstoppable."
In an interview with Billboard, the four-piece band promised that the stage will be more theatrical with technology and brand-new attire. Gene Simmons explained that each member had designed new outfits for the tour.
"These are new outfits that we took a long time to craft. All of us design out own stuff. At the end of the day we are fully complete by ourselves," the bassist of the band said. "We're not only in KISS, we're fans of the band. I'm on stage with these guys. I look across the stage, and wow. We're the greatest band on earth."
Simmons, Paul Stanley, Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer will also sport their signature makeup in character as the Demon, Starchild, Spaceman and Catman respectively.
The North American leg is scheduled to kick off on January 31, 2019 at Rogers Arena in Vancouver and include stops in Los Angeles, Detroit and Toronto among others. The trek is set to conclude on April 13 at BJCC in Birmingham. Fans of the band can purchase tickets for the tour starting from October 31, with a general on-sale to follow on November 2.
