KISS have just been confirmed to perform at this year’s AFL Grand Final instalment of The Footy Show on October 1st, live from Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena, reports Emmy Mack of MusicFeeds.com.
It’s an epic coup for the Australian Football League, who can now lay claim to hosting KISS’ debut Australian performance for 2015, with the Footy Show gig kicking off the veteran band’s landmark 40th Anniversary Australian tour.
“I’ve loved Australia since the very first time I visited,” singer and guitarist Paul Stanley says. “It is one of the greatest secrets on earth and probably better to keep it that way. The food, wine and women are all extraordinary and everyone has always welcomed me and made me feel like it is home.”
