KISS Frontman PAUL STANLEY On Former Band Members Joining End Of The Road Tour - "It Would Be Crazy For Us To Be So Short-Sighted To Not Want To Involve Other Members In The Band"

KISS recently stopped in at the Build Series studios for a 30 minute Q&A session with Madison Vain about their upcoming End Of The Road tour. During the conversation, frontman Paul Stanley addressed the possibility of previous members joining or appearing on the tour, with many long time fans wanting to see original members Ace Frehley and Peter Criss back on the KISS stage.

Stanley: "This is a celebration of everything KISS. This is a celebration of the history of the band, not any individual lineup, but at the same time it would be crazy for us to be so short-sighted to not want to involve other members in the band. Hopefully, there will be appearances by other people who've been in this band. If they weren't there, it's not because we don't want them there. This really is an all-inclusive celebration."
