Mohegan Sun is pleased to announce that KISS, one of the most iconic and recognized Rock bands of all time, has been inducted into Mohegan Sun’s Walk of Fame.  This places KISS among an elite group of entertainers whose stars will now lie beside theirs.  Their induction took place Thursday, August 19th in The Shops concourse in front of a crowd of excited fans. KISS is the 20th star to be inducted into Mohegan Sun’s Walk of Fame.  Upon receiving their star band member, Paul Stanley, jokingly asked fans “Why aren’t you in the Arena for the show, are you waiting for us?”

 KISS has been rocking out arenas for the last four decades and has become one of the most renowned Rock bands in the history of music, with popular songs like “Rock And Roll All Nite” and “Calling Dr. Love.” They have sold over 100 million albums worldwide and have continued their incredible success with the release of their latest album, Sonic Boom, just last year.
