Rock legends KISS have cancelled their concert in Toronto Wednesday evening as frontman Paul Stanley battles the flu.

The cancellation for Wednesday night at Scotiabank Arena came after the band also had to cancel their Tuesday night performance in Ottawa due to a band member’s illness.

In the hours leading up to the band’s scheduled performance, Stanley apologized to fans on X, formerly known as Twitter, for being under the weather.

“Toronto And Ottawa… I’ve done everything possible to get onstage and be a part of the incredible 2 1/2 hour celebration we planned but this flu has made it impossible,” Stanley said.

Stanley also shared a photo showing him lying in bed with an IV drip.
