End of the Road? KISS is Eternal as their Avatars Will Live On Forever [VIDEO]

KISS brought their five-year End of the Road tour to a conclusion Saturday night at Madison Square Garden in their hometown of New York.

But was it the actual End of the Road? Perhaps for the living members of KISS but it’s just the beginning of the road for their avatars.

And when it got to the end of the show Saturday at MSG, Stanley said, “The end of the road is the beginning of another road. We’re not going anywhere. You’ll see us in all different things all the time. We’ll see you in your dreams.”

That was followed by a video of them as fantasy-based superhero avatars performed their 1991 cover of Argent‘s 1973 song, “God Gave Rock ‘n’ Roll to You,” along with a QR code taking you to their new website and the special announcement.

They will be the first U.S. band to stage an avatar show.

The avatars were created by visual effects company Industrial Light & Magic.

The technology has enabled ILM to capture the band’s face and body performance, forming the basis of the avatars in combination with ILM’s artistry and machine learning technology.
