Question: Kiss' Hit 'N Run Mini Tour was a series of shows Kiss did in the summer of which year, Tommy Thayer performed on their own while Stanley was being treated at a hospital in California?
Context: Jigoku-Retsuden (地獄烈伝, which translates to "Intense Transmission from Hell"), also known as Kissology and Kiss Klassics, was a limited-edition CD/DVD set released in 2008 by the band Kiss, exclusively in Japan.  The CD portion of the bundle included 15 re-recorded classic Kiss tracks by the 2008 band line-up (Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons, Tommy Thayer, Eric Singer). The Parade Tour (also called the Under the Cherry Moon Tour ) was a concert tour in support of Prince and The Revolution's eighth studio album "Parade" and his 1986 film "Under the Cherry Moon".  The Hit n Run Tour wasn't a full scale American tour, but a string of concerts that was dubbed "Hit n Run" by Prince's manager.  Most of those shows were announced days or hours before the actual concert took place.  The Parade Tour marked the first full tour of Europe by Prince.  It also saw the expanded Revolution line-up and featured Sheila E. and her band as an opening act for most shows. Thomas Cunningham Thayer (born November 7, 1960) is an American musician and songwriter, best known as the lead guitarist The Spaceman, for the American hard rock band Kiss, as well as the former lead guitarist for the band Black 'n Blue. The M2K Tour was a mini tour by American heavy metal band Metallica.  The tour ran from late December 1999 to early January 2000.  During the tour, "Trapped Under Ice" was requested to be played when they were in Chicago by a fan.  The song was only played two other times: on November 17, 1984 in Belgium, and on November 18, 1984 in Paris.  Metallica also played the New Year's Eve show in Pontiac, Michigan at the Silverdome in front of 50,000 people.  At the show, Metallica broadcast the Times Square Ball Drop, ushering in the year 2000, and played the classic Kiss track "Detroit Rock City" alongside Ted Nugent, Kid Rock, and Sevendust.  The setlists for these tour dates, like their Sick of the Studio '07 tour, consisted of old songs and songs that they have not played in many years. Kiss' Hit 'N Run Mini Tour was a series of shows Kiss did in the summer of 2007.  The San Jacinto, California show was notable in the fact that rhythm guitarist/vocalist Paul Stanley was unable to perform due to an accelerated heartbeat.  So as not to disappoint the fans, Gene Simmons, Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer performed on their own while Stanley was being treated at a hospital in California.  The events were documented and broadcast on an episode of "Gene Simmons Family Jewels".  On July 29 of the same year, Stanley posted a letter on Kiss' website saying that he had recovered.  On August 24, Kiss added one more show for 2007 in Whistler, British Columbia, Canada.  The show would have been the first show they had performed in Canada in seven years, as well as their 100th Canadian show.  On September 10, 2007, Big Mountain Concerts announced that the Whistler show was canceled. Monster is the twentieth studio album by American hard rock/heavy metal group Kiss, released on October 9, 2012.  It was recorded at Conway Recording Studios in Hollywood, California and The Nook in Studio City, Los Angeles.  "Monster" was produced by Paul Stanley and co-produced by Greg Collins, as was 2009's "Sonic Boom".  It is the second studio release of the current band lineup, with Eric Singer on drums and Tommy Thayer on lead guitar. Carol Jiani (born Uchenna Ikejiani) is a Nigerian singer based in England, best known for her early 1981s hit "Hit 'N Run Lover". Psycho Circus World Tour was a Kiss concert tour in 1998–2000.  It was the first concert tour in history to have 3-D visual effects.  The Smashing Pumpkins opened at the Dodger Stadium show only, in costume as The Beatles for the Halloween night performance.  The Dodger Stadium show was streamed live on the internet as well as a radio broadcast.  Two songs, "Psycho Circus" and "Shout It Out Loud", were screened live on Fox television as part of the "Kiss Live: The Ultimate Halloween Party" special.  The vast majority of songs in the setlist were played on the previous Alive/Worldwide concert dates, leading to some frustration from fans expecting the return of classic songs not played on the previous tour.  Peter Criss was quoted in Metal Edge magazine at the time as wanting to add "Parasite" to the setlist.  The tour was initially hyped as having circus-style acts as pre-show entertainment.  This ultimately happened only at the first concert at Dodger Stadium.  Peter Criss later said that it didn't work out because the circus performers wanted equal billing and that some had even wanted to use KISS' backstage dressing room.  "2,000 Man" was played to bring in the new Millennium at the 1999/2000 New Year's Eve show at Vancouver, advertised at the time as being recorded for Alive IV.  The Vancouver show was also notable as being the first time the original members had played non-original band era material live in concert – "I Love It Loud", "Lick It Up" and "Heaven's on Fire" were added to the setlist and subsequently played on the Farewell Tour.  "Forever" was listed on concert setlists at the Vancouver show but was not played.  It was thought at the time it may have been intended as a Paul Stanley solo version prior to "Black Diamond".  One notable show on the tour was the March 12 Bremen, Germany, show.  After the opening song, Paul Stanley announced that the local fire marshall had banned Kiss from using any pyrotechnics during the show.  They used a translator on stage to let the crowd understand exactly what Stanley was saying.  At the end of the performance, the band ignited all of the pyrotechnics at once; as a result, they were banned from performing in Bremen.  Ticket sales for this tour were notably slower than the previous Reunion Tour, with many of the smaller market shows underselling and a second North American leg for the summer of 1999 cancelled all together, the band ultimatly decided on embarking on a Farewell tour in the new millennium. Sonic Boom is the 19th studio album and the first in 11 years from the rock band Kiss, released on October 6, 2009.  The album was recorded at Conway Recording Studios in Hollywood, CA and produced by Paul Stanley and co-produced by Greg Collins.  The album was the first studio album to be released under the current line-up consisting of Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons, Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer.  Stanley stated, "the purpose of this album isn't to let people know that we're still around – it's to let people know we can still knock out anybody who's out there!" . Jeff Warner is a guitarist who is known for playing for the band Black 'N Blue.  According to the liner notes of Black 'N Blue's "Ultimate Collection", he replaced another guitarist, named Virgil Ripper, who was briefly in Black 'N Blue in the same slot in Black 'N Blue that Jeff Warner was later in (that of being co-guitarist with Tommy Thayer).
