KISS have been sued by the widow of the band’s longtime guitar tech Francis Stueber for wrongful death.
According to Rolling Stone, the family of Stueber, who died in 2021 after contracting COVID-19 during the band’s “End Of The Road” tour, has filed a lawsuit for wrongful death.
KISS founding members Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley, their longtime manager Doc McGhee, the tour’s promoter Live Nation, and hotel chain Marriott International were all named as defendants.
Stueber had worked on all KISS and Stanley solo tours and one-off shows from 2002 until his death in October 2021.
