(Thanks again to Vince for getting me into KISS)

(7/26/02, 3 p.m. ET) -- Kiss is apparently not yet done rocking-and-rolling all night and partying every day, despite previous announcements to the contrary. In a new posting on the band's official website (kissonline.com), singer-guitarist Paul Stanley writes that Kiss has reconsidered its decision to stop touring, which led to a lengthy farewell tour that began in 2000.

"People change their minds," Stanley writes in the "Paul Speaks" section of the site. "Am I doing this for the money or the fans? Both, and let's not forget, I'm doing this for me. That is the reason I originally started playing; because I wanted to, and only I can decide ultimately when to stop. As you know (assuming that you have a job), it is great to have both the appreciation of those around you and to be compensated financially."

Kiss last performed at the closing ceremonies of the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, Utah, in February.

No live dates have been announced for Kiss this year, but the group is rumored to be considering a road trek in the fall and winter, including a potential New Year's Eve show in Detroit.

The tour would ostensibly promote the forthcoming The Very Best Of Kiss collection, which is due out August 27.

Kiss has also recorded a track to the upcoming Ramones tribute album, We're A Happy Family, covering the song "Do You Remember Rock & Roll Radio?"
