I can not imagine a World Tour without touring the States. After a remarkable sell-out KISS tour of Europe, the band is playing a mere four shows here in the US- all of them out west.
But why? Could it be that there is no interest at the moment of the band? No promoter is willing to take a chance on them for fear of losing money? Without question Ace Frehley on the Alive/35 tour would make all the world of difference. Maybe half of the original band is not enough during these times. After all it's a highly competitive summer concert season with the likes of Judas Priest and Motley Crue just naming a few. We hear from Paul Stanley "Until we sort out the next leg, we don't want to stop, so we're doing a few US shows for our enjoyment, as much as the fans." But is there really anything to sort out?
