It’s time to pour some sugar all night long and party every day.

KISS and Def Leppard announced today they will join forces this summer on the Heroes Tour. The 42-city North American tour includes two stops in Upstate New York.

The bands come to Saratoga Performing Arts Center (SPAC) in Saratoga Springs, N.Y. on Tuesday, August 5. The tour also stops at Darien Lake Performing Arts Center in Darien Center, N.Y. on Wednesday, August 13.

Tickets for both shows go on sale Saturday, March 22 at 10 a.m. via Live Nation. Tickets for the Darien Lake show range from $32.50 to $149.50. Tickets at SPAC range from $29.50 to $149.50.

KISS will be inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame this April, just prior to the tour. In an interview with the Associated Press last Friday, Paul Stanley of KISS voiced his displeasure with the Hall for only inducting the original lineup.

The joint tour marks the first time the two classic rock groups have shared a bill together.
