Kiss 'Hottest Show on Earth' Tour Dates
Posted on May 24th 2010


It's time for round two.


Legendary rockers Kiss are coming back to America in support of their newest album, 'Sonic Boom.' The Hottest Show on Earth Tour will stop in both amphitheaters and arenas.

In typical Kiss fashion, the band is promising a huge stage show -- and rare songs not usually performed live.

Tickets for many shows go on sale June 4 via Live Nation.





Instead of selecting an established band as support, Kiss has teamed up with Guitar Center to discover a talented, unsigned act. The Guitar Center On-Stage competition will allow unsigned rock bands to compete for a chance to open for Kiss at 22 different tour stops.

The winning band will also receive a $10,000 Guitar Center shopping spree. Unsigned bands can begin registering June 1.




Fans will also be giving back just by attending a Kiss concert this summer.

The members of Kiss will donate a dollar from every ticket sold to the Wounded Warriors Project. This charity benefits the United States Armed Forces.
