Ironic as it seems, I've always liked Peter, But then Ace came next.Then what happens, They leave KISS, & I didn't listen to them again till 89'. Another Ironic thing is that Ace has better solo music then Peter does, And I have16d0 1 of Ace's solo Tapes, And none of Peter's.

Hey Fourman do you have Aces 1978 solo record? That is the one to get, it was the best out of all the others solo efforts combined. I was a BIG Ace fan growing up and I still listen to his music with Kiss and his solo stuff.

Yeah I have KISSAce Frehley1978, Got the remaster back in 97'. Your right about the disc, It's the one I listen to outta all his Solo stuff. Hell Ace should know he made it when they play "New York Groove" on the WALMART P.A. system at night.

Yeah I agree with you, man what money and fame can do huh? All true KISS fans know what has happened and many are royally hacked at Gene and his mouthing off about Ace.
To me, KISS is not KISS without Peter and Ace. And when the makeup came off the downward spiral started.
I seen them on the Dynasty tour and it was awesome. Then again on the next tour and to my dismay with Vinnie Vincent. I did not know Ace had left, talk about being shocked. And I don't remember 1 thing about that show -

Yeah Vinnie had the same problm with Gene & Paul. It's a wonder that he was given credit for co-writing the songs on "lick it up". I'm sure that Ace & Peter gave a little hell while out on tour, But this is what that Chris guy who wrote "KISS & SELL" said that made the magic work in the band. Peter said that if he would've known that Ace wasn't going to make that Concert that became "ALIVE IV". He would have never signed the contract to do the shows, Or show. He couldn't afford to be sued by KISS inc.

Hey Fourman, I don't know how old you are or anything but back in 81 Kiss was on a latenight show with Tom Synder. I liked Tom, he was interesting. Anyway it was soooooooo cool and Ace was the highlight of the whole thing. He cracked jokes through the interview and it was laughs through the whole night. I think Gene got a bit hacked What I would give to see or watch that interview again.

MAN! Up untill 2 days ago, I didn't know nothing about this interview, Untill I listen to that radio Interview that Peter did last year. A fan called in and inquired about Peter's reaction, & asked what Gene & Paul thought about Ace & Peter doing whatever on that Program. Peter said that they were pissed! So Yeah I would've have love to see the interview. My staying up past midnight till dawn or whatever didn't start untill that following year.

That is interesting Peter would mention that paticular interview But that was at a time rock stars were not on tv much as there was no vidoes or MTV. I would love to get my hands on a copy of it. We are talking like 26 years ago it was on and I still can remember it. Ace kept playing with a teddy bear through the whole thing and put some some of his costume on it. It was FUNNY.. he called it a space bear Ahhh man rock and roll was so good then.

That's funny that you said that Gonbaoji. Cause I think that the KISS inc have a teddy bear deal out of all four of their likeness's. I can't Image Ace playing with a teddy bear while giving a interview. That's a Riot!!

That is really going over the line selling KiSS teddy bears? YUK I had posters and t-shirts more than anything else.
Ace is a funny guy anyway, so it was hard to tell if he was blastered during that interview or not. I will admit I did have an Ace halloween mask. These guys have got to be loaded with money
