SOOOOOOOOOO....does this mean that this tour, like so many other things this band has done in the past ten years, is just a sham? You know that after they play a Summer Canadian tour, they aren't gonna go back and play these little Canadian towns.
I knew it!
No, you don't know it.
The 8 Canadian tour dates in July are part of KISS' Alive/35 world tour not part of KISS' tour in support of their new studio cd which is scheduled to be released in September/October. The tour in support of this new studio cd is the tour that KISS teamed up with Eventful in determining where to play.

Since you don't know what you're talking about we'll all just have to

Roll your eyes all you want sparky. You watch and see if those cities are included in the so called "fan routed tour". I'm betting the tour was already routed (long before the contest deadline). Why would it make sense for the to come BACK to these small Canadian cities a month or two AFTER they've already hit the major markets? I could certainly be wrong...but I doubt it.
You're wrong and can't admit it.
Know something before posting next time.
Right. I can't admit it. That's why I said "I could be wrong"...
Methinks this lady doth protest too much. Anyone smell a plant???
And while I'm at it...I've been a Kiss fan for over 30 years, and done more than my share of helping to make those guys wealthy men. I love the band for what they used to be, but have been a bit dissapointed by some of their actions of late.
That's my right as a fan, and as someone who's defended these guys for years! Hell, I went round and round on a chat site recently about what bullshit it is that Jann Weiner and Dave Marsh are pretty much single (double?) handidly keeping KISS out of their rightful place in the R and R Hall of Fame. I lost all respect for both of those guys as a result.
I have no crystal ball nor do I posess ESP, so I can only go by what I hear. The jist of what I heard was more speculation than fact, and if it seemed I was stating fact, I was in error. But hey...at least we've started a little chatter on this once dead board, right?
