While Kiss will not be hosting its usual fan meet-and-greets due to COVID-19 concerns, Simmons says the band is planning the next best thing by welcoming meet-and-greet fans to soundcheck for a pre-show socially-distanced hangout.
"So why not invite the fans to be in the audience and answer questions, play tunes, just kind of hang out together, but at a safe distance," he said. "The closest they’re going to get to us is, oh, maybe 100 feet. So maybe it’s a new experience for the fans who can sort of see the reality and see the stage for what it is without the lights doing tricks."
