KISS Announce Dublin Show / European Tour
I’m speechless. Yesterday I found out that Tickets There’s all time favorite live band are playing their very first (I think) show in Dublin’s O2 Arena. KISS are undeniably the greatest live phenomenon touring under the good time rock n roll banner these days and despite hard efforts from AC/DC, Def Leppard, Whitesnake and Journey last year, TT feels that KISS are going to send all those bands packing as a distant memory.
Now, normally I would have been blogging something like this before I’d finished reading the story but I’ve lost all interest in Tickets There. Won’t go into the reasons why because this is KISS’s time so here’s the details.
KISS, the world’s greatest live band are coming to Europe next year as part of their tour for their latest album, Sonic Boom. They’re currently in the middle of the US leg and the band have promised that the European shows will have a new stage, new costumes, new set list and new everything…except the classics. The tour kicks off in Dublin on the 7th of May and the group will spend over two months playing some of Europe’s biggest arenas and festivals. More dates are expected to be added soon. Please find the current list below.
Tickets for Dublin, O2 Arena are priced 49.50 and they’re on sale this Friday (Nov. 27th)

Well said, they are an amazing live band. Our tickets arrived yesterday for the London show we’re heading to so we’ve two KISS gigs on the cards for 2010. I think three would be a nicer number though 😉
