KISS is letting their fans route their next tour. The most demanded cities on Eventful will be the stops for their upcoming tour. Want to see KISS in Lexington at Rupp Arena? Click on the image above and demand they come here! Be sure to tell all your friends and family to do the same. As of right now, Lexington is in the top 25, but we need to move up higher in the list. Let them know that Lexington wants to rock and roll all night.

As the sun begins to creep down toward the horizon on March 27, Buckcherry, Avenged Sevenfold and Papa Roach will be hitting the stage at Rupp Arena. This excellent night of rock has been billed as having four bands. Up until the Nickelback tour which just started, Saving Abel was that fourth band. Now they have moved on to touring with Nickelback, which I would argue is a much more appropriate market for their music. So to round out the foursome, Burn Halo will be stepping in as the opener at Rupp Arena (and other dates on the tour). For those wondering who they are, hit the jump to get in-the-know.
