KISS reschedules canceled Star Lake concert for October

KISS is heading back to Star Lake to make good with Pittsburgh fans.

The rock band’s Aug. 26 concert the Pavilion at Star Lake was canceled after front man Paul Stanley tested positive for covid just hours before the performance was about to start.

Now, the group has announced on its website it will return to the Burgettstown venue on Oct. 13 for a make-up concert.

All previously purchased tickets will be honored for the new date.

As for Stanley, it seems like he’s doing great in recovery from covid.

“SIXTEEN DAYS since my Covid symptoms. TWENTY FIVE MILES on my bike today. I’m back and NEVER would have been through it like this without being double vaxxed and proper medications,” he wrote on Twitter.

On the night of the original concert, Stanley tweeted about his condition, saying he “had been sick with flu-like symptoms and was tested repeatedly and was negative. As of late this afternoon I tested positive. The crew, staff and band have all tested negative once again.”

Stanley said the entire tour — band and crew — have been fully vaccinated. The tour, he said, follows strict covid safety protocols, “closely following all (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) guidelines.”
