    There's a video of Ace talking to fans inside what looks to be a highschool gym. He was saying some not so nice words about Gene. It was Ace's birthday and Gene crashed Ace's rant as he made his way to the stage... carrying a birthday cake for Ace. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤪🤪🤪👍

Paul doesnt likes Peter because he thinks peter is a bad player and not very bright. Peter and ace are buddies though they doesnt look have hanged out together much.

    can't say it better. Being that Gene is an "excellent businessman", they should put clauses in the contract that would prevent Ace from being able to do said things. I am sure Ace can hang and take much of the stress off of Paul and his vocal issues by singing 1/3 of the tunes at least.

    You can see exactly what happened with the EOTR tour. They teased Ace for several months, then released the tickets to test the waters. When they realised they were making enough from venues whether full or not as long as the expensive floor seats were mostly sold, they dropped the idea of Ace. Many of the venues had thousands of tickets for sale within a few days of the show and got sold on the cheap in the last 48-72 hours. if the first sales had been lukewarm they would have been on the phone to Ace in a flash, just like they begged him to come back following the Farewell Tour when Aerosmith enforced three original members for the joint tour, then they got Peter pack when Ace said no.

Ace is not a technically amazing player, but he has a unique sound that is what I call controlled chaos. He is a self-taught player that I think would have been ruined if he took formal lessons. He has rock and roll in his blood, and Kiss is not as good without him!

    The Egomaniac Rock Star image of Gene was created by Bill Aucoin. In the early days of KISS, Bill thought Gene sounded too much like a Businessman, so he wasn't allowed to do interviews, because no kid is going to buy an album from some guy who sounds like his parents. The Rock Star Gene is all for show and marketing. He's really a nice Jewish guy from NY who loved his mother.

    Ace is my 2nd-favorite guitar player of all-time (following Ritchie Blackmore). And it was Ace's stunning lead guitar work that sold me on this band...in an instant. After DEUCE & 100,000 YEARS, I thought, "This is the most amazing music I've ever heard in my life. I had no idea they were SO good! I thought their costumes & stage were what fans loved... I HAD NO IDEA IT WAS THE MUSIC!!" There's a reason their current guitar-player looks like and sounds like Ace: because they knew that was their winning ticket and the essential piece of the puzzle. No matter what people say about him, I will admit that Tommy is a solid guitar player. But, I have to admit that I don't really know what he sounds like because he spends his time in KISS trying to sound like, play like, even look like Ace. AND THERE'S ONLY ONE ACE. I love KISS! But let's be honest here: Ace is not in the band because of money. To get Ace back, they have to accept that they will need to pay him more per gig (probably quite a LOT more) then they pay Tommy. And it's their band now; they can choose with whom they want to play. And they figure, the money they lose from not having Ace there maybe works out to them being able to pay less to Tommy...plus, they don't have to deal with Ace being more forceful; Ace is NOT and NEVER was a yes-man. They want Tommy over Ace because they pay Tommy less and it makes Gene & Paul's lives easier. That's it. That's the only reason Ace is not in the band.

    I was lucky to have met the original lineup of Kiss (Gene, Paul, Ace and Peter) at their absolute pinnacle of success and then again years later. At both instances, Peter and Ace were the most accessible by the fans and seemed more genuine. Don't get me wrong, they were all very kind to the fans, just Ace and Peter were a little bit MORE so. I have the whole original band's autographed photos on my wall ( and Ace and Peter asked ME if they could autograph something for me, not the other way around, I always thought that was very kind of them) and I will always treasure those autographs and Peter and Ace's answers to my questions, especially the first time when I was just a kid. Of course, nowadays if you want to meet them, you have to pay an outrageous ticket price to do it as a meet and greet, and of course, you won't get to meet Peter and Ace. So if you ever want to know if things were REALLY that much better back in the day, there's one example to show you that they were...
