According to Sootoday.com, as of 7:55 AM today, 8,231 votes had been cast for the Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, which ranked third in the contest to determine which North American cities will be included in the upcoming KISS tour.
City Council's support for a KISS concert at the Essar Centre appeared to be "unanimous." However Ward 2 Councillor Susan Myers is "strongly opposed. I would be sick at heart to see this kind of performance come to our city," she adds. "Can we not offer our citizens something that is joyful and uplifting vs. sick and revolting as so clearly depicted in this YouTube video (below) of Gene Simmons' farewell tour?"
Declaring KISS to be "the hottest band in the world," Sault Ste. Marie Council encouraged Saultites to go to Kissonline.com and vote for our city in the first-ever fan-routed tour.
