ACE FREHLEY Doesn't See KISS Reunion In His Future

Gene Triplett of NewsOK.com recently conducted an interview with original KISS guitarist Ace Frehley. A couple of excerpts from the chat follow:

On the possibility of a KISS reunion with him on guitar:

"Uh, I don't see it happening. I never say never, but I just turned 57. I don't see myself getting up onstage with tights on and putting on the makeup and jumpin' around like, you know, a kid again. Because I don't physically think I can do it.

"On the last reunion tour, I saw a couple of videos. I think we looked a little tired, you know? I think it's maybe better to put that segment of KISS to sleep."
