Perhaps the death of Kiss guitarist Ace Frehley has nudged the members of Kiss to reunite with band members who are still alive, but whatever the reason, the legendary rock band is set to reunite with drummer Eric Singer. The group will welcome singer as a performer on "Kiss Kruise: Landlocked in Vegas, which is set for November 14 through 16 at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas.

Singer will join longtime Kiss members Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons and Tommy Thayer for the event's two Kiss performances, both of which will be unmasked, and the festivities will mark the first performances with the latest Kiss lineup since they closed out their End of the Road World Tour at New York's Madison Square Garden in December 2023.

Singer, Stanley, Simmons and Thayer will also participate in a Q&A session with fans, and Singer and Thayer will host a "Name that Tune" guitar and drum riff event along with Thayer.
