Now it's April 2024 and the quasi-original KISS is literally DONE. Gene and Paul have announced the KISS brand, catalogue, logo and license have been sold to a third-party Swedish investor for an alleged $300 million profit over decades. Something real KISS fans knew already after the last KISS show on Dec. 2/23. Motley Crue in 2024 now perform without Mick Mars, almost 9 years after their final farewell tour.
Let's face it:the likes of Kiss(who are rumored to have a second Las Vegas residency in Planet Hollywood in 2021),Scorpions,Motley Crue,and The Who just can't pass up on the multi millions that are offered to them.
