Simmons’ career in music spans 45 years, and he recently wrapped up End of the Road, which was billed as his final world tour with KISS. Simmons, 69, rose to fame in the 1970s as a “blood-spitting, fire-breathing, bass-playing demon” with the band.

According to a press release, Simmons plans to share his life stories in a “tell-all moderated discussion” on how he approached his band as a business, taking “massive” risks and approaching new opportunities.

“The entrepreneur, author, television personality and Rock n’ Roll Hall of Famer, who with KISS sold more than 100 million albums worldwide, will unleash his acumen and lay out his secrets on what it takes to climb the ranks to join the wealthy and powerful in his unstoppable and unapologetic style,” a release states.

Simmons’ other appearances include Nov. 6 at TheStar.ca Performance Stage at Budweiser Gardens in London.
