Ace needs to stop - just like Chaim and Stanley. KISS is dead. The music will live on with the studio albums, which is all that matters. Watching any show from the last 5-10 years ago is painful. Was bored and started to watch but couldn’t make it through 2000 Man. ACK!

Ace was always my favorite member of Kiss. There is no Kiss without him!

[@Charlie_B.]

If you listen to Ace’s solo material and then listen to Kiss’ early stuff it sounds a lot alike in terms of style and grove. Just goes to show who was writing the music that launched them to stardom that everyone loved. And let’s not forget; he is the only one from Kiss to be a successful solo artist.

[@straightmalecaucasian1453]

[@michaelhargrove5111]

@@straightmalecaucasian1453 I believe that Charles B said music not songs

[@deancramer]

I guess it depends on what your definition of "successful" means... If he the Kiss name weren't attached to him, nobody would care about him. He has no real hits outside of Kiss. For the record, I love Ace in Kiss, but after "leaving" them, he's done very little to be excited about or be interested in.

[@Foldisfitch]

@@deancramer Having the Kiss name attached to them is the common ground from which they all have tried to launch solo careers...and so far Ace is the only one who's got halfway to first base

Thanks for posting this, I was at this concert, right at the front. Ace absolutely rocked. Blew me away. Ace is King when he’s playing like this! Even the vocals were spot on you’d think you were listening to a much younger Ace. He was definitely in his element this night. The band was also killer. I’ve seen footage of him at later dates and was much sloppier, not on this night he killed. Best money I’ve spent in a long time. Again thanks for posting this!!

This renewed my faith in him. Great playing, plus he's surrounding himself with the right musicians and assigning them the right coverage parts.

[@TheAceSpaceman]

He plays quite well, let's be serious here. He is not a virtuoso but also he is not a bad guitar player...it's his voice. Ace's voice has never been "good" and I don't say it in a bad way, he never wanted to sing in Kiss because of that but until "Shock Me", he was insecure about his singing...but it kinda fit in the rock and roll world and well, there we have it.

[@seventallguitarist]

This is my take. Any time there is a break up or a member "leaves", why choose sides? Take advantage and go see both versions. I recently saw Foreigner (no original members - Mick Jones didn't show up for this show - he rarely plays live anymore) and they were fantastic. Set list was hit after hit and Kelly Hansen is amazing. If Lou Graham came to my town, I'd go watch him and enjoy his show as well. So sill that people piss and moan over who is right or wrong, or not sober or greedy. If the songs are good? Go support them and enjoy the show.

[@Strato13]

Honest Ace. No OD pedals, no Delay, no Reverb.. Keeps it so simple. But only he can pull this off.

[@Morningstar_Actual]

StratXIII if you don’t think he runs pedals you’re crazy. He’s a legend but his early sound included an EHX LPB1 and big muff pi. No shame in pedals, page, Hendrix, ace, Gilmour, santana. All of them used pedals to help create their signature tones

Catherine Turcol you can save your lame groupie story, he uses pedals. This is not to take away from Ace’s amazing talent. But yes, he uses pedals albeit not many but you’d be ignorant to think he doesn’t. Rack mounted or not, there’s at least 3 pedals in his signal chain at all time

[@dynjarren7523]

Cmark Frey Thanks for sharing your personal story! I missed my only chance to see Elvis in 1975 at the Milwaukee Arena. I wanted to go bad but my sister and mother had the only two tickets. I was pissed. My mother had bad seats in the back and my sister had a seat up front. Guess who had the camera? That’s right! My mother! And I still have the picture and all you can see is this little white spot where Elvis is supposed to be! I assume they could hear the concert well. So I resented my sister after that. She wasn’t an Elvis fan like I am to this day. I never saw Evel Knievel but I remember him. He had guts to do those crazy jumps! And Kiss I saw on their 96 Reunion Tour!
