ACE FREHLEY Says Original KISS Lineup Will Not Perform At ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME Induction Ceremony

It's official: The original lineup of KISS will not perform at the band's upcoming induction into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame, scheduled for this April at Brooklyn's Barclays Center.

The news of the legendary group's non-reunion at the event was broken by former KISS guitarist Ace Frehley during an appearance on last night's edition of "Eddie Trunk Rocks" (formerly "Friday Night Rocks") radio show on New York's Q104.3 FM.

"I don't think KISS fans are gonna be too excited and happy about the news, 'cause at this juncture, [KISS leaders] Paul [Stanley] and Gene [Simmons] have decided to perform with [current KISS members] Tommy [Thayer, guitar] and Eric [Singer, drums], and it looks like the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame is going along with it," Frehley said.

Ace, who said that he was informed "in the last 24 to 48 hours" of Stanley's and Simmons' decision to perform with the current incarnation of KISS rather than the original lineup, continued: "The last time I was on [this radio show], it was a very exciting and happy call. And the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame was very excited about having the four original members who are being inducted to perform at the ceremony. And that was shot down by Paul and Gene. And now it's kind of, like, if I'm not gonna put on the makeup and do a three-song reunion for the fans, then what am I gonna do? And right now I'm not even sure if I'm gonna show up for that, you know?!"

According to Frehley, Stanley and Simmons "shot down doing any type of reunion with [original KISS drummer Peter Criss and me] — with makeup, without makeup," while Frehley himself ruled out performing alongside KISS' current lineup, saying, "I'm not gonna get on the stage with Tommy wearing my makeup. That's absurd."

He added: "It's a shame. I know [the original lineup reunion is] what the fans wanted. I know it's what the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame wanted. [But] it's not gonna happen."

Asked if he had any idea why Stanley and Simmons are so opposed to the idea of performing with the original KISS lineup at the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame, Frehley said: "I don't know, and at this point, I really don't give a shit. [Laughs] I really don't care. It's, like, enough already.

"You don't wanna do something for the fans after 40 years of them supporting you?

"It's something the fans wanted, it's something the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame asked of all four of us. They shot it down.

"It is what it is. I don't completely understand it, but those guys do a lot of things that don't make sense to me. It's unfortunate for the fans.

"We're being inducted because of the fans. And I feel like the fans are being let down. And I'm upset about it; I've gotta be honest with you. But I'm trying not to let it get to me because, like I said, I've gotta finish [my new solo] record and I've gotta think positive. And I wanna move forward. But it's upsetting. "I'm working on my second book. I've got [my] new [solo] record [coming out]. What will be in the future will be. No matter what happens, I'm fine. And I'm having fun. And I'm creating great music. My life's great. And I can't let any negativity… I've gotta just let it roll off my back and continue doing what I've been doing — making great music.

"I'm at the tail end of [making my new solo] record… and this has just been a thorn in my side, because every day there's a different story: 'Yeah, maybe you can come and get up and do 'New York Groove'. And if you don't do it with KISS, you can do it with a celebrity lineup.' And that was shot down. It's very frustrating. It's also distracting my attention from the most important thing right now that I'm doing, [which] is working on music and creating. So it's very frustrating and a little disheartening."

Frehley also revealed the main reason he wanted to spread the message that he wasn't going to perform at the Rock Hall induction.

"It was very important that I let the fans know that because the tickets are going on sale on Monday, and I didn't want people buying tickets thinking that they were gonna see a KISS reunion, and then be disappointed," he explained.

[Note: American Express card members can purchase tickets to this year's Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame induction ceremony before the general public beginning Monday, February 24 at 9 a.m. EST through Friday, February 28 at 10 p.m. EST. Tickets will be available to the public at Ticketmaster.com beginning Saturday, March 1 at 10:00 a.m. EST.]

KISS, which has been passed over by the Hall since 1998, is taking its long-overdue induction with a grain of salt, with Stanley telling Classic Rock magazine that it feels like a case of a little too little and a little too late to mean anything for him, explaining, "It was done begrudgingly and because it had become absolutely ludicrous that they were choosing to ignore us. At the end of the day most people don't realize that the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame was a privately created establishment and that it has a self-appointed board. It's a perfect case of perception becoming reality. People heard 'Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame' and gave it credibility." Stanley added: "So whether it deserves the title has to be weighed against who it inducts.

"So was it an honor to be nominated? No. It means a lot to the fans, and I understand it, because it's validation for them. So for that reason, I accept graciously and accept on their behalf."

The 29th annual Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame induction ceremony will take place on Thursday, April 10 at Barclays Center.

The television broadcast will premiere on HBO on May 31.

EvilDeD

эти сварливые старики еще долго будут поставлять подобные новости, вроде "мы будем выступать вместе", "мы не будем выступать вместе", "мы будем в гриме", "мы будем без трусов", "джин - жалкая капиталистическая свинота", "эйс - сраный алкаш", "пол - жалкий "гей" и так до своего включения в зал.
но нам ведь это и нужно, так же? )

Ace Frehley

EvilDeD, ты сам то понял чего сказал? Не нравится,проходи мимо,это не твои проблемы. ,Одна из величайших и доказавших всё в этой жизни групп,не нуждается в твоих жалких комментариях.

23 фев 2014

Bret Hart

Ace, ваши слова в интервью и в комментарии как будто от разных людей: от старого музыканта и от глупого школьника соответственно... я знаю, что в чем-то подвох...

Blackout 74

Ох, как же сильно вы на бомжару похожи.)

Смотрю сейчас Ace Frehley LIVE и восхищаюсь им, как действующим музыкантом.

EvilDeD

Ace Frehley, я обычно понимаю что говорю. И кстати, я где-то тут сказал что Кисс говно и они мне не нравятся? накапай себе валерьяночки, али чего покрепче.

23 фев 2014

Ace Frehley

Bret Hart,подвох в том,чтоб такие как ты тупо по клаве стучали,набирая глупые выражения,раз в музыке не Ace-ы.

23 фев 2014

Ace Frehley

Blackout 74,на себя давно в зеркало глядел? Этот "бомжара" один из величайших гитаристов на земле,а чего добился ты?

23 фев 2014

Serj7388

Эйс, не думаю что старик Блэкаут хотел задеть вас как личность или как музыканта, внешне, увы, схожесть присутствует, то же самое можно сказать и про мастейна, например. Наркотики и алкоголь бесследно не проходят.

23 фев 2014

Serj7388

А по теме - КАКОГО ХЕРА!? кто такой тайер? какой вклад он нес в становление легенды? то же можно сказать и про сингера, которого я уважаю как ударника. Но там должны выступать именно эйс и питер в первую очередь, а потом уже остальные.

24 фев 2014

Blackout 74

Ace Frehley )))))))), что ты тыкаешь мне. Кто вам сказал, что он великий гитарист ))), он просто гитарист Kiss, не более. Впервую очередь, он АЛКАШИНА))), которого поэтому и поперли из великой команды.

24 фев 2014

Serj7388

Блэкаут, ну не надо недооценивать. Это не блэкмор конечно, но он также велик, как и джо перри, например.

24 фев 2014

Blackout 74

Serj7388 Все это чушь, великих гитариста всего три - это Jeff Beck, Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page потом, все остальные.

24 фев 2014

Serj7388

Блэкаут, чушь это то что ты себе немного резко позволяешь высказываться.

Serj7388 Это не чушь , а правда жизни, расслабься, обычно высказываюсь, тебе показалось.)
