Ace Frehley Doesn’t Believe Kiss Is Done Touring

Guitarist Ace Frehley doesn’t suppose his former band, Kiss, is de facto performed touring, regardless of their End of the Road farewell trek.

“To be honest, I don’t really believe they’re ending their touring career,” Frehley defined to SiriusXM radio host Eddie Trunk (as transcribed by Blabbermouth). “How many times have they said they were gonna retire? How many times have half a dozen groups said they were gonna retire and still come back? Personally, I don’t know what their plans are.”

Kiss – who previously embarked on a farewell tour in 2000 – have continually insisted the End of the Road is their final trek. Fans have speculated that Frehely could rejoin the band for their last performance, taking place Saturday, Dec. 2 at Madison Square Garden. However, Frehley has continually insisted he won’t be there, and that he has no emotions regarding Kiss’ tour retirement.

“I’m so happy I’m not involved,” the guitarist admitted to Trunk. “Last night time I watched [footage of Kiss’] Indianapolis present [from the current tour] from entrance to again on YouTube. They had 10 feedback and possibly a few thousand views, however in comparison with what I’m doing proper now, you possibly can’t maintain a candle to it.”

Frehley’s upcoming solo album, 10,000 Volts, arrives in February.

The band will livestream their final concert as a pay-per-view event, available via cable and satellite operators in the United States and Canada, and worldwide on PPV.com.

There’s also the possibility of other Kiss-related shows in the future, albeit without the band’s members.
