Gene Simmons

The duo will release their debut album two weeks before embarking on the extensive trek.

For some, it meant taking a step back to identify what was more important in their lives – music or their families.

The duo continue to pursue a different musical style than their famous fathers.

Vanilla Fudge, Dio and Ratt stars will also take part in the weekend festivities.

A California mini-tour precedes their debut album, out this summer.

The dates will take place after Kiss' second annual Las Vegas fan event.

"The great thing about being an icon is you can stay young forever," Paul Stanley says.

Upcoming West Coast shows follow a handful of February dates.

"Dancing While the World is Ending" sounds quite different than their debut "Body Down."

Simmons and Paul Stanley will also open a new restaurant in Detroit this week.
