Concert cancellations
The band rescheduled the concert in Calgary on July 13, 2013 to November 8, 2013 due to flooding in the city. The Hell and Heaven Metal Festival 2014, which Kiss was supposed to play at, was canceled for security reasons.

Australia tour
The Australian tour began on February 28, 2013 in Perth , Australia . Co-headlining acted as on The Tour , Motley Crue . The opening acts were Thin Lizzy and Diva Demolition . On the Australian tour, Kiss used a different setlist than in South America. On March 3, 2013, at the concert in Adelaide , part of the stage caught fire. Paul Stanley therefore voted on Light My Fire from the Doors . On March 7, 2013, Kiss played two songs on the NRL Footy Show (Rock and Roll all Nite and Hell or Hallelujah). Mötley Crüe cut the concert on March 10, 2013 by 4 songs because Vince Neil was hospitalized with suspected kidney stones . At the last concert of the Australian tour on March 16, 2013 in Mackay , Australia, Paul Stanley dedicated the song Shandi to the murdered Shandee Blackburn .
European tour
There was a new stage for the European tour. A huge metal structure that looked like a spider floated above the stage. Their legs were headlights. Before the show started, Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons and Tommy Thayer pissed off. The same drove up to the hall ceiling. After the curtain fell, the spider came down again. Gene Simmons flew to the spider after his bass solo and sang the song 'God of Thunder' there. The European tour began on June 1, 2013 in the Stockholm Friends Arena in Sweden . There was also a new setlist for this part of the tour. But in contrast to the setlist on the Australian tour, the setlist for Europe remained largely constant. On June 6, 2013 the band performed at the Sweden Rock Festival . The "spider" didn't work at the concerts in Copenhagen and Berlin . It only partially worked at other concerts on the Monster Tour. The band played on June 15, 2013 at the Nova Rock Festival in Nickelsdorf . A local crew member was killed when the stage was dismantled in Milan , Italy . The concert on June 20, 2013 in Zurich , Switzerland was broadcast live on American television. The European tour ended on June 22, 2013 in Clisson , France at Hellfest .
