"Ortsbo continues to have huge success with its Live & Global events and
I'm thrilled to be hosting a real-time conversation between fellow rock
legends, die-hard fans and myself during this first-of-its-kind tour,"
said Simmons. "We know that great music is universal and I think Ortsbo
is the key to a one-world language. This Live & Global session is going
to be a great addition to the tour and venue, and I'm looking forward to
giving our fans a 'back stage pass' to talk with us!"
The Buenos Aires show is the third of ten stops the Rock-N-Roll Allstars
tour will make in venues throughout Central and South America. At this
one show only, fans from all over the world will be able to participate
in the Ortsbo Live & Global broadcast and pose their questions to rock
legends Gene Simmons (KISS), Joe Elliott (Def Leppard), Matt Sorum and
Duff McKagan (Guns 'n' Roses), Sebastian Bach (Skid Row), Mike Inez
(Alice in Chains) and Glenn Hughes (Deep Purple).
"Music is universal and so are our fans," said Matt Sorum. "It's great
to use Ortsbo to promote our tour to everyone in their own native
language. Can't wait to get questions on April 23rd from every corner of
the planet."
"Internationally celebrated rock stars like Gene Simmons and Matt Sorum
have, in many ways, set the standard for connecting with fans
worldwide," said David Lucatch, CEO of Ortsbo. "Our own previous record
for simultaneous translation of a live event is 160 plus countries. With
Gene and other big-names listed on the 'Allstar' roster, we're looking
forward to breaking that record and seeing rock fans from all over the
world enjoy what is lined up to be another memorable 'Live and Global'
event."
