ACE FREHLEY Performs In Tampa; Video Footage, Photos, Review Available

March 12, 2011

Original KISS guitarist Ace Frehley performed last night (Friday, March 11) outside St. Pete Times Forum in Tampa, Florida after the Tampa Bay Lightning vs. Ottawa Senators game as part of this season's outdoor concert series.

According to the Bradenton Classic Rock Music Examiner, "Ace wore his favorite number 27 on a Tampa Bay Lightning jersey with his name embedded on the back and wore dark shades throughout the concert. While Ace played and sang, he consistently bombarded the crowd with his guitar picks."

Among the songs Frehley performed were "Snowblind" and "New York Groove" from his first solo album in 1978; "Sister", from his latest CD, "Anomaly"; and "Rock Soldiers" from his second album, "Frehley's Comet".

Ace reminded the Tampa crowd that he was almost electrocuted in Lakeland at the Civic Center in 1976, then immediately jumped into his tune "Shock Me", a song both written and sung by Ace on the KISS "Love Gun" album in 1977. He also banged out KISS favorites "Love Gun" and "Deuce" and ended the concert with "Cold Gin" from the first KISS album.
