Says TeamRock Executive Director Alexander Milas: "There aren't many better-known figures in the rock world than Gene Simmons. As a founding member of KISS it's impossible to summarise his contributions, but it's really his off-stage persona - arguably even bigger than what he does in makeup - that makes him such a beloved figure in our world. It'll be an honour to welcome him through the doors of HeavyCon later this year - the only rock and metal convention of its kind. Game on!"
