It seriously is the conclude of the road for Kiss.

Most probably. We consider. So they say.

But this time we’ll feel Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons when they introduced Wednesday on Sirius XM’s “The Howard Stern Show” that the band’s final  concert events will be Dec. 1-2 at Madison Sq. Backyard garden in New York Metropolis.

“We’re finishing up exactly where we commenced,” Stanley told Stern, flanked by his bandmates in full make-up. “When you arrive to see the present, it is wonderful. … It’s plainly a kick-ass rock ‘n’ roll show. It is all the things Kiss – just amped up and ramped up. We’re supplying it all the things we have.”

Simmons included that he was confident he would “cry like a 9-year-aged lady whose foot is being stepped on” all through Kiss’ previous moments on stage.

Even with a couple staff variations on guitar and drums through the years – Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer cope with the respective obligations on this tour – Kiss has often soldiered on.

The pioneering rockers have been lauded as considerably for their ingenious stage personas – Stanley remains the Starchild and Simmons, with his wicked tongue, the Demon – as their astute business enterprise acumen, promoting all the things from Kiss-branded lunchboxes to caskets in the course of their 5-decade job.

And, with much more than 100 million albums marketed throughout the world, an stock of guitar-crunching hits (“Detroit Rock City,” “Shout It Out Loud” “Calling Dr. Appreciate,” “Lick It Up” and “Rock and Roll All Nite” between their mindlessly exciting fist-pumpers) and a put in the Rock & Roll Corridor of Fame, the Kiss legacy will stay on over and above their closing bows.
