Kiss ended its final farewell tour with a concert at Madison Square Garden in New York City. At the end of the show, the band members disappeared in a blaze of fire and smoke. Their digital avatars then appeared on screen, announcing that the “new Kiss era starts now”. The company behind the show, Pophouse Entertainment, plans to take Kiss’ avatar-powered concerts on tour. Kiss is aiming to keep making money off their brand through the use of digital avatars even after retiring from live performances.
