Hit 'n Run Tour (2007)

The Hit 'n Run Tour was a concert tour by American rock band Kiss. The San Jacinto, California show was notable in the fact that rhythm guitarist/vocalist Paul Stanley was unable to perform due to an accelerated heartbeat.[1] So as not to disappoint the fans, Gene Simmons, Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer performed on their own while Stanley was being treated at a hospital in California. The events were documented and broadcast on an episode of Gene Simmons Family Jewels. On July 29 of the same year, Stanley posted a letter on Kiss' website saying that he had recovered. On August 24, Kiss added one more show for 2007 in Whistler, British Columbia, Canada. The show would have been the first show they had performed in Canada in seven years, as well as their 100th Canadian show. On September 10, 2007, Big Mountain Concerts announced that the Whistler show was canceled.

In the tour program for the band's final tour, Thayer reflected on the tour:

You hear people say that a Kiss show is just all about the show and this proved that wasn't the case. When we did this tour, we proved we could succeed without all the bells and whistles. Performing in a small theater in a stripped down setting without all the bombs and pyro makes you focus a little bit more on the music and the singing. The fans dug it so much because it was raw and just the music. For the true dyed-in-the-wool Kiss fan that's what they care about the most, the music.[2]
