Ace Frehley Makes Surprising Gene Simmons Revelation
.
(Classic Rock) Former KISS guitarist Ace Frehley says that singer and bassist Gene Simmons is actually a "sweet, sensitive guy" and recalled a time when his former bandmate helped him when he was leaving a hospital. The rock star has faced backlash in recent years over his controversial opinions. But Frehley says his ex-bandmate Simmons just "can't help himself" - and adds that he has a softer side that people don't always see. Frehley tells Sixx Sense: "I think he's coming down with Tourette's Syndrome. He can't help himself sometimes. But you've gotta love that guy. I mean, he saved my life twice. I was in the hospital in 2005 out here in Los Angeles, and I was leaving the hospital, and I was supposed to leave in a wheelchair. "Most people when they leave hospital are wheeled down to the lobby and then you get in a limo. He picked me up and carried me all the way downstairs. He didn't want me to be in a wheelchair. I mean, how sweet of a guy is that?" Frehley adds: "Gene comes off very abrasive and like a money-grabbing guy, but, you know, there's another side to Gene. There's that sweet, sensitive guy that you don't always see. But it's there." Read more here. Classic Rock Magazine is an official news provider for antiMusic.com. |
