Another member of the legendary rock group Kiss has tested positive for COVID-19.
Following a Friday announcement that Paul Stanley tested positive for the virus — and that the band was canceling the evening’s show as a result — Gene Simmons has also tested positive, and the group will be postponing multiple upcoming shows as a result.
“Kiss will postpone their next four tour dates. While Paul Stanley recently tweeted that he has recovered from COVID, Gene Simmons has now tested positive and is experiencing mild symptoms,” Kiss tweeted Tuesday. “The band and crew will remain at home and isolate for the next 10 days and doctors have indicated the tour should be able to resume on September 9th at FivePoint Amphitheatre in Irvine, CA.”
The Post has reached out to reps for Simmons for comment.
Purchased tickets for their “End of the Road” farewell tour will be honored at the new dates once they are announced, the post added. The now postponed shows were set to take place in Michigan, Ohio, Illinois and Wisconsin. The show canceled upon Stanley’s diagnosis was in Burgettstown, Pennsylvania.
In announcing the rockers’ breakthrough cases, Kiss has also revealed that the entire band and touring crew are fully vaccinated.
Members of Kiss “and their crew have operated in a bubble independently to safeguard everyone as much as possible at each show and in between shows,” the band wrote in a statement following Stanley’s diagnosis. “The tour also has a COVID safety protocol officer on staff full-time that is ensuring everyone is closely following all CDC guidelines.”
Stanley shared his experience with the virus on Twitter.
“My COVID symptoms were MILD compared to many others and let me tell you … It kicked my ass,” he wrote Monday. “It’s over now.”

😳😂😂😂 and I know what you’re talking about. What does that say? 😂
The worst cartoon band in existence since the Archies broke up.
I wonder what early treatment they’re receiving for these breakthrough China virus cases.
LOL!
You may be right! 😂
We have watched Cinemax at 0200 on Friday and Saturday nights.:)
To be fair, you saw her boobs in every single movie she was in.
“End Of The Road” tour.
One can only hope.
old men in makeup tour?
I never cared for them and I grew up in those days.
But but but, he’s vaccinated, how did this happen?? Anyone else see a pattern??
My guess is rich, famous, and vaccinated get monoclonal antibodies.
“You may be right!”
“I may be crazy. But it just may be a lunatic you’re looking for.”
He blames Trump? FUGS.
Best wishes to all the band members and crew.
My whole family had Covid and it was basically nothing - the children wouldn’t have noticed if we hadn’t been tested - except my sense of smell isn’t normal after 7 months. I have whole days where everything smells like vanilla, which is not all bad in a house with 4 teenaged boys.
Isn’t he the idiot who blasted people for not being vaccinated?
Nothing really missed. Not like KISS is a deep musical or lyrical tour de force.
I’d say that’s a good guess.
Yes, and non-stop propaganda.
And placing their trust in people who have proven over and over they don’t deserve it.
Shoulda kept his tongue in his pants. Or something like that.
