"And I’d love to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a solo artist, not with Kiss. I’m the most successful solo artist of the four original members and I’d like to be acknowledged as that.”

Article isnt new, but still good.

I also was amused that the article praised "Cherry Medicine" which might be the worst song I've ever heard by him, I laughed at that, but not out loud.

Other gems:

• I just got a beautiful casino date at Mohegan Sun in Connecticut, where I'm headlining a 9,000-seat arena.”
• “God has given me so many talents; I almost feel guilty that I don’t use them. I’m looking forward to doing more while I still have time left.”
• “I can still play the solo for Shock Me note for note; I can still play the solo for Deuce note for note.
• The last guy I knocked out was actually a Hell’s Angel – but that was like 20 years ago!”
It ´s also funny/sad he sees himself as a funny guy.

Sure, it’s analogous to you always being the biggest clown on this board.

Ace is obviously a mess musically these days, but back in the ‘70s like Eddie Kramer said, Ace’s guitar was the sound of Kiss.
I post Ace sucks and you come running.

Like clockwork.

KISS's sound was Paul's voice, his songs, and his rhythm guitar parts and tone. Next would be Gene's voice and his songs. Then Ace. A 20 second guitar solo doesn't make the song.
Right-o. Perhaps you should look up the meaning of Narcissistic Personality Disorder. And Dumbass, look that one up too.
I did look both terms up.

This reminded me that the MC5 are in. That must take the cake for the artist in there that has sold the least records. Ace Frehley solo prolly HAS sold more than them!


They are in for "musical excellence", just like Judas Priest. I wish the interviewer had asked him "What do the musical excellence category mean these days? Is it just a way to induct bands at a lower level?"
"Musical excellence" is simply throwing a band a bone.

Halford was not happy with Priest being inducted in that category.

His jokes are racist and homophobic.

The guy's a fucking asshole.

My favorite Ace Frehley guitar solo:

Ace is funny. His playing is a joke.
