Ace in cool pants - That's stickin' it to Gene and Paul!
Original KISS guitarist Ace Frehley’s “It’s Ace Down Under” tour is now scheduled for February 2010. The East Coast venues remain the same and all tickets bought for the October tour are valid for the rescheduled February shows.
Due to overwhelming demand, dates have also been added in Adelaide and Perth. Also planned is an expanded setlist, including some rarities, for Ace’s fan base. The Spaceman promises the shows will be worth the wait. “I made [my new solo album] ‘Anomaly’ for my fans, and the response has been incredible,” Frehley says. “I’ve never toured Australia as a solo artist, and I want to pull out all the stops.”
Frehley is currently considering adding his biggest Australian KISS hit “Talk To Me”, as well as the never-performed “Dark Light” (from KISS’ “Music From The Elder”) to his set. Ace also plans to reschedule his Japan dates after “Anomaly” has been released there (December 9 via Universal Music).
Fans who had tickets for the October shows and are unable to make the new dates can obtain a refund from ticketing agency.
New dates are as follows:
- Feb. 01 – Perth, Australia – Metropolis Fremantle
- Feb. 04 – Adelaide, Australia – HQ
- Feb. 05 – Melbourne, Australia – Palace (formerly Metro)
- Feb. 07 – Sydney, Australia – Enmore Theatre
- Feb. 08 – Brisbane, Australia – The Tivoli
