KISS have annoucned a string of shows in Australia as part of the group's ongoing 40th Anniversary tour. The band will be touring with their massive 43,000 kilo lighting rig, dubbed "The Spider", which features 900 pieces of pyrotechnics, 220 automated lights, 20 flame machines and 300 kilos of dry ice.
Front man Paul Stanley commented:
“I’ve loved Australia since the very first time I visited. It is one of the greatest secrets on earth and probably better to keep it that way. The food, wine and women are all extraordinary and everyone has always welcomed me and made me feel like it is home.”
