As someone who appreciates hard work, I do have respect for someone who went from cleaning Gene's gutters out (look it up-it's true) to playing Ace in KISS. But, there's only 1 Ace, people, and TT ain't him.

KISS:ALIVE! was the first record I was ever obsessed with, when I was 7 years old in 1977. I was a member of the KISS ARMY until the Makeup came off. After that, I was never a Hater, but the catalog got spotty for me. The whole "vibe" changed. It wasn't a Comic Book with a Hard Rock soundtrack anymore, it was just another Hair Band. I don't mean that to be dismissive, there are some incredible Hair Bands, and the Musicianship in KISS was always fantastic. Hair Metal just isn't really my thing. I am an Ace Frehley FANATIC. That said, I think the reason so many Hardcore Fans HATE the new kiss is because the "new guys" are not simply playing Kiss songs, they are seen to be Impersonating the originals. Tommy Thayer isn't playing "The Spaceman" in KISS, he's playing ACE FREHLEY in KISS. I get the whole "Kiss is a bunch of characters, that can be played by anyone who can play the songs" thing that I've heard Paul explain in interviews, but a lot of people don't.

The one thing thats really cool is that their makeup makes them timeless like they haven't aged a bit. until they take it off of course. so its kinda like looking at them in the 70s still. I was all about kiss in the 70s as a punk. anyone can say anything about kiss and their makeup was dumb or this or that. they are now a billion dollar group. so stick that in your proverbial pipe and smoke it.
