Think of it as KISS-to-go, with every 2 ½ hour show will be available at concession stands immediately following that final encore. Fans can also pre-order the sticks and MP3s in advance via Simfylive.com.

But it doesn’t stop with single shows on USB sticks. KISS will offer a “Collector’s Gold Edition” memory stick, enabling fans to purchase additional shows, including pre-ordering extra recordings. Just insert the Gold Edition stick in a computer’s USB connection and download the concerts after the shows take place.

The USB stick and MP3 concert downloads come from Music Networx, which specializes in live recordings and creating new ways to market and distribute live music.

KISS begins its Euro tour in the United Kingdom, playing Sheffield May 1. Other stops include Dublin (May 7), Zurich (May 16), Prague (May 23) and Oslo (June 14).
