KISS say they're like 'herpes'

Kiss have said they're not planning on finishing anytime soon.

Speaking before their gig at Download tonight (June 13) the quartet said they still love getting dressed up too.

When asked if they still enjoyed wearing the get-up they wear on stage Gene Simmons said: "We get to wear our mummy's heels."

The band admitted it's important to keep fit too when wearing those outfits and Stanley added: "Well nobody wants to see a fat guy in tights."

The band, who take to the stage at 8.45pm (BST) tonight, also said the show wouldn't disappoint.

Paul Stanley said: "We go for knockouts every night."

The band were adamant that they wouldn't stop performing anytime soon either and joked: "We're like herpes I guess."
