Ace Frehley Fires Back At Former KISS Bandmates

(Classic Rock) Former Kiss guitarist Ace Frehley has hit back at Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley following a string of insults directed his way in recent months, saying: "If Gene and Paul had half a brain, they would realise what's going on and start saying good things about Ace."

In an interview with Guitar World, Frehley says he's fed-up with the pair's disparaging remarks and also boasted he could blow current Kiss guitarist Tommy Thayer off the stage.

"When I was f***ed up, Gene used to say I was a drunk and a drug addict and that I was unemployable," he says. "Kick a guy when he's down, right? But they can't do that anymore, so it's like they're scratching their heads trying to come up with new ways to insult me."

Speaking about Stanley's comments that he was anti-Semitic, Frehley hit back: "That's just below the belt. Next I'll be a member of the Ku Klux Klan. My fiancee is Jewish and my whole life I've worked with Jewish people. I can't believe the stuff that comes out of their mouths.

"Paul has been so goddamn cranky lately. I mean, what's wrong, Paul? Aren't you happy? I know they must be frustrated because people are always writing about how Ace was the real deal. It's got to rub them the wrong way. They would like nothing more than for me to start drinking and taking drugs again and end up as a bum on skid row - but that's not going to happen."

He had more to say here.
