KISS annuleert optreden in Manchester

Wie Gene Simmons en co. op 30 mei in de Manchester Arena wil bewonderen, is er aan voor de moeite. Het optreden van de groep werd geannuleerd. De recente terroristische aanslag en de hierop volgende sluiting van de concertzaal liggen hiervoor aan de basis. Niet enkel de passage van the hottest band in the world gaat niet door. Ook een WWE live-evenement - gepland op 6 juni - diende afgelast te worden.

KISS verspreidde onderstaande mededeling via Facebook:

"#KISSWORLD MANCHESTER ARENA CONCERT CANCELLED Following the tragic events in Manchester and the temporary closure of the Manchester Arena the scheduled concert of KISS’ KISSWORLDTour on the 30 May 2017 has been cancelled. We are heartbroken by the atrocity committed against the innocent victims of Manchester. We sadly will not be able to play Manchester Arena on the 30th May. We have always looked forward to these shows and our local fans, but in light of recent events a cancelled rock show seems of such little consequence. Our thoughts and prayers are with the families and friends of those affected and all the people of Manchester at this difficult time. We are with you and you are in our prayers. - Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons, Eric Singer and Tommy Thayer"
