Ace's house burns
« on: December 15, 2013, 06:26:47 PM »
It's a sad day when I'm the first one to post KISS-related news.

Ace Frehley's house goes up in flames -- and it's in foreclosure. Hmmmm....

The foreclosure thing was reported a while back (I think at least a year). Ace has said it was an oversight by his business managers (dropped the ball on mortgage payments). I have no idea whether that's true but if he still owns the house it's been a long foreclosure process.

The piece I read said some power lines were damaged and caught the roof on fire. Ace is living in LA these days and the same article said only a caretaker lives on the property now.

I guess my knowing all this means I'm still enough of a KISS nerd to keep up on the gossip but not so much that I have to report it when I do (not that that's why you did, Dave). :) And at least the article you linked posted an actual picture of Ace and not Tommy Thayer!

No doubt, Ace will find a way to blame this on Stanley and Simmons too.


Back when Kiss were still children ...



More plodding than rocking (an unfortunate habit of Kiss, probably down to their third generation Led Zep influence), but I  thought it fits the subject and Gene's Grabber is nicely up in the mix. And they sure didn't save on the dry ice!

Pre-Grabber. Paul and Gene are playing their LoBues.

First thing I thought of when I read the subject line was the foreclosure, but the power line story seems legit.

I was wondering that the body seemed a little small for a Grabber, but I didn't get a good glimpse. And I didn't know that the LoBues came prior to the Gibson endorsement deal.

Pretty good timeline here that I bookmarked a while back.
