ACE FREHLEY's Halloween Concert Officially Sold Out

October 3, 2007

Tickets to original KISS guitarist Ace Frehley's October 31 performance at New York City's Hard Rock Café as part of New York radio personality Eddie Trunk's annual listener Halloween party sold out a short time after they went on sale earlier this week.

Commented Trunk: "Well, I told you this show would sell out quick and I wasn't hyping you! I knew this would be a big deal and I've heard from people all over the world coming to see it. Really makes me proud that this sold out simply from a few mentions on my radio show one night and, of course, the info here on [my web site]. You guys rule!

Trunk added, "Spent today in NYC with Ace. We had lunch at the Hard Rock Café and I showed Ace the stage and venue for the event. He's totally pumped about getting on stage and I'm already making my song requests for the set! Remember, my radio show on Q104 is the ONLY way to now get into this event! Just listen to the show the next four weeks. Anytime I play a song with Ace on it 25th caller gets free tix to this now-sold-out event.

"Ace will be on with me this Friday night and there is a chance a few more tix might be released through Ticketmaster in the coming days. I will let you know if and when this happens exclusively on this site and on the radio show."

Frehley is very happy to be back playing for the first time since his halcyon days with KISS, the band he co-founded. He's been holed up in the recording studio of late working on his upcoming solo album, due for a 2008 release. "I can't wait to get up on stage and rock 'n' roll," says Ace of the one-off show that already is garnering tremendous response.

Although information on the set and who will play with Frehley is being kept under wraps, Ace says to expect KISS classics and solo originals. The traditional costume contest, complete with prizes, will, of course, be part of the festivities.

Ace's new album was reportedly recorded with a trio of Ace, Anton Fig on drums and new bassist Anthony Esposito (LYNCH MOB). Ace's touring band will feature Ace, Anthony and other players yet to be announced.
