Tommy Thayer: This tour is about the legacy of KISS, 45 years. It’s a great legacy!

About one year from now, KISS, who need no introduction, will be touring in Australia.
You’d expect nothing less than the blowing up of our stadiums by KISS. Performing in 2003 with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, no small feat, a few years back touring with Mötley Crüe—two of the biggest names in rock history, again, no small feat–and KISS are calling the upcoming tour, The End Of The Road. Indeed, it’s a massive three-year saga for the band–so what will they do to out-KISS themselves? Chuckling, Thayer thinks that’s a great question. “The obvious answer is, ‘Oh this is gonna be the biggest tour we’ve ever done!” but literally, I can tell it’s going to be the biggest one in terms of production and the show we do because of the amount time and focus we’ve been putting into this already!”
Starting from scratch with production and staging, KISS have been rehearsing for two months already, looking at pyrotechnic demos and fine-tuning the show with two or three months before they even start the North American stretch of this colossal live journey–so without giving it too much hype, it is going to be the biggest tour KISS have ever done. “A whole new thing for KISS,” says Thayer, “It’s just gonna be the bombastic show KISS has always been famed for!”
About one year from now, KISS, who need no introduction, will be touring in Australia.
And in the words of guitarist Tommy Thayer, they will be blowing it up. “Figuratively and literally!” The Spaceman cries.
It's KISSMAS Time!
