Damn it. One of our biggest scoops<\/a> of 2020—that Kiss would have a Las Vegas residency in 2021—was recently confirmed but has now been turned on its face-painted head.<\/p>\n

It seems the plug has been unceremoniously pulled on the Kiss residency at Zappos Theater at Planet Hollywood.<\/p>\n

An alert Twitter follower<\/a> was the first to notice Kiss tickets have been yanked from Ticketmaster.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Sometimes, you just have to rip off the Band-Aid.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Kiss residency was scheduled to start Dec. 29, 2021.<\/p>\n

No official statement has been given about the sudden cancellation, but there was a big red flag when Gene Simmons recently put his Las Vegas mansion up for sale<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Both Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley have had medical issues resulting in cancellations of shows in recent years.<\/p>\n

Gene Simmons is 72, Paul Stanley is 69.<\/p>\n

This does not appear to be a postponement, and refunds are being given to ticket-holders.<\/p>\n

There is almost assuredly drama related to Kiss canceling their residency. It’s Kiss. And it’s Las Vegas. Kind of a no-brainer.<\/p>\n

If you still have a hankering for Kiss, you can always visit Kiss Minigolf at Rio.<\/p>\n

\"Kiss
Just like a residency, but without some idiot standing up in front of you the whole time.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

We won’t speculate about why Kiss canceled its Las Vegas residency, but if we were Kiss, we’d probably cancel because we’re over it.<\/p>\n

Can you imagine having to wear that make-up for 40 years? It’s a great marketing hook for maybe three years, then it’s just a pain in the ass.<\/p>\n

Or maybe everyone’s really sensitive about kissing right now, what with the pandemic and all.<\/p>\n

Or maybe ticket sales weren’t meeting expectations. Sorry to make it awkward.<\/p>\n

Worth noting: There have been stories about Kiss roadies and COVID safety<\/a> in recent days related to the death of the band’s longtime band tech, Francis Stueber. It’s unknown if the Kiss residency cancellation is related to this controversy.<\/p>\n

There’s a small chance we’ll hear the truth in time, but for now, “Tears are Falling” for the Kiss Army.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
