Simmons says the tour is scheduled to hit 'all continents' and will go for three years - but won't include original members Peter Criss or Ace Frehley.
Gene Simmons treated the fans attending his first 'Vault' box set event to 8 hours of songs and stories featuring Ace Frehley, Bruce Kulick and Eric Singer.
After the recent incident where Gene Simmons was accused of crashing a Fox News staff meeting and offending staffers, the musician has issued an apology.
