The Hottest Show on Earth Tour was a concert tour by Kiss in support of their 19th studio album, "Sonic Boom".
 It is essentially the North American leg of the Sonic Boom Over Europe Tour, itself a continuation of the Kiss Alive/35 World Tour that started in 2008.
 Kiss also played in Mexico for the first time since 2004.
 The tour featured both arena and amphitheater shows throughout the United States and was produced by Live Nation.
 As with previous concert tours, live recordings of every show were sold at the venue by SymfyLive.
Obituary is an American death metal band formed in October 1984 in Tampa, Florida.
 Initially called Executioner, the band changed their name to Xecutioner in 1986 to avoid confusion with the thrash metal band Executioner from Boston, and then changed their name once again to Obituary in 1988.
 The band's current lineup consists of vocalist John Tardy, lead guitarist Kenny Andrews, rhythm guitarist Trevor Peres, bassist Terry Butler, and drummer Donald Tardy.
 Obituary has gone through several lineup changes, with Peres and the Tardy brothers being the only constant members.
 The band was a fundamental act in the development of death metal music, and is one of the most successful death metal bands of all time.
 To date, Obituary has released ten studio albums, and with the exception of their 1997–2003 split, they continue to perform live around the world.
White Music is the fourth studio album by American rock band Crack the Sky, released on LP in 1980 (see 1980 in music) by Lifesong Records (catalog #LS 8028).
 It was the first release from the newly reformed Crack the Sky, whose lineup included only two members from the original band: singer/songwriter John Palumbo and guitarist Rick Witkowski.
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.

 It is the second studio release of the current band lineup, with Eric Singer on drums and Tommy Thayer on lead guitar.
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.
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!"

The Sonic Boom Over Europe Tour (full title: "Sonic Boom Over Europe: From the Beginning to the Boom") was a concert tour by American rock band Kiss in support of their 19th studio album Sonic Boom, which was released in October 2009.
Eric Charles "Erock" Friedman (born June 28, 1984) is an American musician and songwriter, best known as the current touring guitarist and backing vocalist for Creed, as well as Tremonti, which is fronted by Alter Bridge and Creed lead guitarist Mark Tremonti.
 He played with the band on their 2009 United States reunion tour with Staind and their 2010 Tour with Skillet.
 He is the former lead guitarist for the band Submersed and also the former lead guitarist for Daughters of Mara.
 Submersed and Daughters of Mara both disbanded in 2008.
 He also currently plays lead guitar and co writes for the rock band Hemme.
 At the age of thirteen Friedman was the youngest guitarist at the time to be fully endorsed by Fender.
 His first introduction to Mark Tremonti was at a NAMM show where his then manager introduced them both.
 They subsequently jammed at one of the Rivera amp booths and noticed, that although they had different styles, (Tremonti being heavily influenced by metal and Friedman Blues), they both complemented each other.
The Kitchen Cinq were an American garage rock band from Amarillo, Texas active in the 1960s, whose lineup included guitarist and songwriter Jim Parker.
 They evolved out of the Illusions and eventually changed their name to the Y'alls, releasing records under both names, and enjoyed regional success before moving to Los Angeles, where they signed with Lee Hazlewood's LHI label and became the Kitchen Cinq.
 As the Kitchen Cinq they recorded five singles between 1966 and 1968, as well as the album "Everything but the Kitchen Cinq", released in 1967.
 In December 1967, they released a single under the alias a Handful, but returned to their better-known moniker for their final release in 1968.
 Out of the remnants of the Kitchen Cinq, several of the members evolved into the progressive rock outfit Armageddon.
 Jim Parker went on to play in one of the post-Van Morrison lineups of Them as well as several subsequent acts, before moving to Nashville where he collaborated with John Anderson, and became an established country music songwriter and musician.
 In the early 1980s he played in the backing band for Dave & Sugar.
Asylum is the 13th studio album by the American rock band Kiss.
 It is the first with lead guitarist Bruce Kulick as an official band member.
 He replaced guitarist Mark St. John on some songs on the Animalize album during his absence due to Reiter's Syndrome.
 As a result of this, Kulick filled John's spot during most segments of the Animalize tour.
 The lineup of Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons, Eric Carr, and Kulick would last until Carr's death in November 1991, while Kulick would stay with the band until the reunion of the original lineup in 1996.
