Sixx said: "Following the heartbreaking news of the senseless shootings in Colorado we wanted to do something to help the families and victims. We bonded together with our tour partners and friends Kiss to donate money, but we also hope it inspires others to do the same, no matter how big or small."

We hope that our small gesture helps inspire others to band together in compassion and financial support for all involved in this unspeakable tragedy."
