KISS' Appearance At Australian GRAND PRIX Confirmed

October 23, 2007

Sam Edmund of the Herald Sun has confirmed that KISS will perform at next year's Australian Grand Prix.

In a coup for the Australian Grand Prix Corporation, the veteran rockers will play to thousands of revved-up fans at Albert Park.

The outdoor concert will rock the GP after practice, qualifying or the race, from March 13-16.

Singer and guitarist Paul Stanley confirmed the American band would be performing at the race.

The GP show will be sandwiched between the band's big-budget stage performances across Australia and New Zealand.

"We're going to Australia — we're doing the Grand Prix," Stanley said.

"We're gearing up for some big shows out of the country."

A spokesman for the AGPC said the full program for next year's race would be announced in November.

The signing of KISS is part of a bid by GP organisers to bounce back from last year's sluggish ticket sales.

The 2008 Grand Prix will also mark the return of the V8 Supercars.
