ACE FREHLEY To Perform At 'Lightning Concert Series Presented By Volkswagen'

February 10, 2011

Tampa Bay Area Volkswagen dealers and the Tampa Bay Lightning are teaming up to bring the Lightning Concert Series presented by Volkswagen to the St. Pete Times Forum this season. The concert series will continue with popular country music singer and songwriter Phil Vassar as he performs following the March 5 game at 7:00 p.m. against the Montreal Canadiens. Lead guitarist Ace Frehley of the legendary rock band KISS will conclude the concert series performances with a show after the Tampa Bay Lightning vs. Ottawa Senators game on Friday, March 11 at 7:30 p.m. The concerts will be held outdoors on the West Plaza stage immediately following the game. Access to the Lightning Concert Series presented by Volkswagen is free with the purchase of a Lightning game ticket.

Ace Frehley, who was better known as "Space Ace," was the lead guitarist for legendary rock band KISS from 1973 to 1982. He would continue to lead a successful solo career selling millions of albums with his new band, FREHLEY'S COMET, as well as other albums under his own name. However, in 1996 he rejoined his former band members as the official KISS reunion tour would emerge and soon become the largest grossing tour of '96-'97. He provided his musical talents for the 1998 "Psycho Circus" album and would end his time as a member of KISS in 2001 on the "Farewell Tour". His last solo album, "Anomaly", was released in September of 2009.
