Nov. 13 - New Brunswick, NJ (SpACE Invader)

Post by **Admin** » Wed Nov 12, 2014 4:41 am

Plan meet-ups, discuss/review the show, share the setlist, report live from the show!

Will Ace finally perform "Dark Light" live? Which "Space Invader" songs will be debuted live?

Can't wait. Should be a great show.

Ace Frehley

HEADS UP, ACELANDERS!! THE SPACE INVADER TOUR STARTS TOMORROW! (DO YOU NEED TO BE REMINDED?)
Get your tickets now, as shows are close to selling out (e.g. less than 10 tickets remain in Milwaukee; less than 50 tickets remain in both Chester, NY & Annapolis, MD; and less than 100 tickets remain in Greensburg, PA!)

I got an email on Nov 4 from John Ostrosky the Tour Manager. The Chicago show is on Nov 29. It was a thank you and it asked for my shirt size and said the items and tickets will be at the show. His email is ace.frehley.vip.experience@gmail.com

I'm going tomorrow night. Scored great seats. I honestly think i'm more excited about this show then I've been for a KISS show in awhile.

Their facebook only has this listed for this show.

Also, I'm not really one to zone out and take videos during shows, but a couple from tonight would be great! I'd love to see how the new lineup sounds before my show.

The folks at the venue said at Mr Frehley's promoter will not supply them with the list of VIP's until the day of the event: Jeez...

Will be there 10th row dead center.....psyched!!! Spoke to someone at the theatre....floor only...... approx 1,000 seats.....roughly 600 sold with a decent walkup expected and I foresee close to a thousand strong for opening night....I predict an opening one-two punch of Space right into Gimme....Rip it in the three slot and we are off to the races!!!

Looking forward to seeing reviews/setlists! I'm thinking he bust out something unusual, he's done it recently with "Flaming Youth", "What's On Your Mind?". I'd like to see "Save Your Love" personally.

Trunk also stated today that he's giving away a "ton" of tickets for tonight's show, so it should be a good showing.

Wonder if any of the people that bitch about KISS playing Love Gun too much were cheering when Ace played it.

Space Invader a mid-set song? Wouldn't have pictured it going there. Would've been a perfect opener.

I guess I am the only one here so far completely underwhelmed by this setlist. Let's see the second half, but it will probably be a lot of staples like Shock Me, Rocket Ride, etc.

Working_Man · Post by **Working_Man** » Thu Nov 13, 2014 7:58 pm

Decent shot of the stage:

Started off strong, think there will be a few more gems coming up. The 'must plays' are still yet to show though.

Surprised by Love Gun and woukd have replaced Toys with I Wanna Hold You. Kool song

First recorded time Ace has ever done King of the Nighttime World live solo.

Eddie with a shot on twitter:

"Amazing hearing these Kiss songs in the original key live with these guitar tones & these vocals from @scotcoogan ! Strutter now. Killer!"

I'd agree with him. Bunch of the old KISS songs don't have the same kick to them with an extra half-step down.

I'm not a huge fan of Toys. Lost In Limbo is average. Plus Love Gun and King. Ugh.

I would much rather hear Ace do stuff like Save Your Love, Darklight, What's On Your Mind and Speeding Back To My Baby.

I'd rather hear more Ace solo stuff rather than non-Ace KISS co-writes like King or Strutter as well. I give him credit for not playing a 'safe' set thus far though.

Post by **Admin** » Thu Nov 13, 2014 8:08 pm

Absolutely amazed he's done three new tracks. Hope they went down well.

Smoking Guitar.

Looks like a model I haven't seen Ace use. Probably custom just for the smoker.
