CLEVELAND — Are you ready to rock this weekend?!
On Saturday, the band KISS was presented with a "Music Keynote to the City" at the Rock and Rock Hall of Fame, along with a resolution from Cleveland City Councilman Brian Kazy proclaiming Oct. 22 as KISS Day.
Three of the four band members were at the Rock Hall on Saturday, including singer Paul Stanley, drummer Eric Singer and lead guitarist Tommy Thayer. Gene Simmons was not in attendance but will be performing with the band at the Concert tomorrow night.
Stanley spoke to the crowd about the band’s long history with Northeast Ohio.
"Our history with Cleveland goes back to playing the Agora. From there it was a memorable roller coaster ride," said Stanley.
Additionally, on Sunday, Oct. 22, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Rock Hall will have a KISS Fan Day, bringing out highlights from KISS' 2014 Induction into the Rock Hall, which will be played on a loop in the museum's Foster Theater.
Anyone visiting the Rock Hall on Sunday will hear the band's music played inside the museum and along the Rock Boxes on East 9th Street. Fans also will have the opportunity for a photo-op honoring KISS outside Rock Hall.
KISS will take to the stage at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse on Sunday at 7:30 p.m. for their "End of the Road Tour." Tickets for the concert are still available and can be purchased HERE.
