Kiss is currently on their farewell tour and will wrap things up on July 17, 2021 in New York City. Kiss has been and is currently bassist Gene Simmons, guitarists Paul Stanley and Tommy Thayer, and drummer Eric Singer.
They've also had a handful of very high-profile names in the band over the years. Namely guitarist Ace Frehley who was in the band between 1973 and 1982, and then again between 1996 and 2002; drummer Peter Criss who was in the band between 1973 and 1980, 1996 and 2001, once more between 2002 and 2004; guitarist Vinnie Vincent who was in the band between 1982 and 1984 and has been mostly elusive; and guitarist Bruce Kulick who was in the band between 1984 and 1996.
While there has been some public spats between the individual ex-members and Kiss over the years, Kiss manager Doc McGhee told Pollstar that he and the band want everyone to come to the last show.
It’s going to be great. It’s going to be worthy of the end of the road. It will be worthy to the 45 years of KISS, the last month for sure. We want to celebrate everybody and we might bring out all the former members. We’d like to. Nobody says we hate this guy; we hate that guy; we want everybody who wants to come out.
It'll be interesting to see what happens here. Bad blood aside, this is the final time these guys can get up on stage and do something absolutely gargantuan in the place where it all started. Which would also be one hell of a memorable sendoff for fans.
