This topic came up quietly about 8 years ago over a joint tour with these two bands at the helm.
KISS has secured rights to using "THE END OF THE ROAD" as a trademark or something and QUEEN + will likely be on the road in success and blow jobs or blue jobs for all in the near future.
A) KISS did a mini tour this year through Europe mostly Spain and Portugal
B) complaints have been doggin Paul Stanley for years now about his voice and how he should "hang it up"
C) if both aging and fattening (+AL) bands are nearing their end. Would a joint tour (*as KISS has stated this will be our biggest tour EVER) be in the works?
D) Joint tour means slightly shorter sets for bands w members in their 70's and younger.
....Real question.
Is this a possibility?
*grandfather's of Rock Tour?
Maybe throw in Judas Priest there.

Only if John subbed for Gene in his original 70s outfit.
Gene could be the opening act promoting his Vault....In Person!

Where's that insane Kiss fan that we used to have on here, the one that used to like shitting on every other act in existence as a means of saying how great Kiss was??

I never thought I'd have to hear the KISS/Queen + rumours again, didn't we go through this shit 10 years ago or something?

God I hope not. I've never understood the bracketing of these two very differing bands together.
As for "both aging and fattening (+AL) bands are nearing their end", I'd say this is less so for Queen & AL. AL is in his prime, and Brian's playing in the last couple of years has been better than for a long while (Yes, Roger is the weaker aspect now though). Kiss will not end though, and they have already publicly stated that the band is now a 'franchise' and they will just carry on with Gene and Paul as Chief Executives picking their own replacements. (Which Queen have done to a lesser, more sensible degree with the Queen Extravaganza).
The main issue if this sort of tour ever happened is finding venues big enough to take the merchandise (over priced non music related tat) stands!!!

This notion only came up on here with people trying hard to find things to write in posts, nobody from either band ever seriously or casually considered a joint tour
Never going to happen. Maybe you might see them both do a joint thing in Las Vagas, but by chance rather than design.

The only link to Kiss is Lamberk.

Queen don't need such a tour they're still going strong as is, however if such a nightmare did happen who would headline? Ha egos and all.

Memories of Sonisphere 2012 should put a stop to any of that nonsense.

Let us hope not. Kiss are appalling. They should stick to squeezing into comically undersized cars and honking each other's noses.

With Kiss and Queen + you got 6 old men and a young bad musical singer who can’t sing for shit
