KISS announces 'End of the Road' farewell tour

We've heard this song before, but it seems genuine that KISS' upcoming "End of the Road World Tour" will be exactly that.

The band announced the decision to pack up the pyro after a performance on Wednesday's finale of "America's Got Talent."

"All that we have built and all that we have conquered over the past four decades could never have happened without the millions of people worldwide who've filled clubs, arenas and stadiums over those years. This will be the ultimate celebration for those who've seen us and a last chance for those who haven't. KISS Army, we're saying goodbye on our final tour with our biggest show yet and we'll go out the same way we came in... Unapologetic and Unstoppable," the band said in a statement.

The band’s current members are Stanley, Simmons, Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer.
