Special Fan Experience Announced

Earlier this month, the bassist made headlines by introducing a unique Experience for fans to purchase during his “Ultimate Gene Simmons Experience” tour across North America. This exclusive package allows fans to assist with on-stage tasks and enjoy special seating behind the curtains.

Priced at a steep $12,495 (approximately £9,667) plus the ticket cost, this experience provides fans with food and a presentation opportunity during the show. Additionally, those who bring a friend will receive an autographed bass guitar from Simmons himself.

Tour Postponed but New Shows Announced

Last week, it was reported that his North American tour, originally set to start in April, has been postponed to “early 2026.” Although the reason for the delay was not specified, it was confirmed that it is not due to health issues.

In a recent interview with the New York Post on March 25, Simmons elaborated on the thinking behind this Roadie package: “As a kid, I was always curious about what happens during the hotel stay and behind the scenes before the show starts. What do they experience on stage? I thought: ‘Why not create an opportunity for fans to be my personal roadie for a day?’

He added, “You’ll meet at the hotel, have breakfast together, and basically experience everything up close.”

The experience will also include a special performance from Jin Simmons: “You will accompany me to the concert, adjust amplifiers and drums to your heart’s content, and be right on stage, behind the scenes.”

Despite the postponement of his solo tour, Kiss has announced plans for an “exposed” show in Las Vegas later this year, marking their first performance after the farewell tour in 2023.

An email sent to fans reveals that the concert will feature “a special live performance by former KISS member Bruce Kulik, along with other special guests, events, exclusive experiences, and much more.”
