@@williamdeluca901 so, was it really equipment problems or was Ace unable to perform because he was drunk? He doesn’t look like he is sober. I would hate that to be true, but that’s what it looks like. I wasn’t there, that’s why I am asking you.
@RocknRollAllNight That's good to see that, ACE IS finally getting the recognition he deserves, also you made a perfect video of Ace's performance !⚡️🔥ACE still has it, 🎸 ! Rock & ROLL all night. 🤙

@@coogiemonster71What fcking grown man is running around calling himself "The Coogie Monster?" 😂 Good voice, but your tempo is all over the map. Have you ever considered that you might be left handed? 🤣😝
@@coogiemonster71 BTW, have any of you thought of suggesting to Ace that, I don't know, maybe HE show up to do his own soundcheck? Seeing as he's hard of hearing, why the fck would he expect HIS monitors to be dialed in by the rest of the band? I didn't notice that the three of you were having issues hearing each other or yourselves. Personally, I'd be embarrased to be covering for this trainwreck. If Ace asked me up on drums to play a song or two, would I accept? Absolutely. Would I embarrass myself by being a part of this shitshow on a regular basis? Nope. I don't need $800 a night that bad. I feel bad for you and the other guitarist. I think the bassist is a bozo and unprofessional, so couldnt care less about him PS: people are whispering that you're "on the sauce again."

@@ernestgarcia755 No they weren't, otherwise the sound would've been balanced properly, only needing minor tweaks. Once again, you have no idea what youre talking about
@@JokersWild70 there is video of the sound check out there. And I heard sound check happening. I was there that day.

i play guitar because of Ace!!! my favorite of all time. I’m not a pimple on his ass but i r been gigging and playing everything from stadiums to bars etc. Ace obviously has hearing loss. i seen him do this same shit in beaumont 12 yrs ago. ALL you could hear was ACE… i’ll say this and it hurts but it’s the truth…. His band is saving his ass
@@RocknRollAllNight Yes, in 1983, 10 yrs old with mom, eating pizza before the Centrum Show and I heard the words Vinnie Vincent ..wait What?? What's an Ankh?? AAAAHHHHH NNOOOOOOOOO.....So last nite at 52 yrs old I was there to vanquish this Demon upon my back, all I can say is Thank You to Ace , the Band,the Authentic Fans for Salvaging a Trainwreck and from my perspective, putting on one hell of an Authentic Ace Freheley Show!!! Kudos!!!
First off, that one girl at the merch table needs to put some clothes on, she’s not built to wear slutty pants & a sports bra only! $50 for a tee? He wants to talk about crap with Gene & Paul but he’s is ripping fans off with his high prices! You can find a good quality shirt online cheaper of his than $50! The start of the show is proof of doing sound check! It helps eliminate problems! Instead of him butchering up a great song like Shock Me, he should have stopped everything & got the sound problems fixed! He must be paying great for Coogan to want to go through this every show! I have seen two videos of his current tour now & each time he has walked around like he was drunk! He has always been my favorite Kiss member but he has got to get himself & his shows lined out!
I agree with everything you said, when I saw that chunky girl slinging merch who I can only guess thought she looked like one of the ladies on the Love Gun cover and $50 t-shirts which BTW are shoddy amateurish designs made by the tour manager at home on his Macbook SMH I literally LOL! I've never seen any artist that plays small theatre's and bars, etc. sell shirts for arena prices!
The sound kept cutting out. Something to do with the moniters. Ace's band did soundcheck before Ace showed up and all was good. The opening act went off without a problem. I think something happened during the switch from the opening act to Ace
You HAVE to be able to hear yourself and the other instruments in your monitor system. If you can't, you have no idea where you're at in a song, or how your own instrument is sounding. This is why you do soundchecks: to balance the sound and make sure that you're able to hear everyone properly. Or, you could say "bring the bass up a bit in my monitors" if you're Ace. Seeing that Ace has serious hearing issues, if he'd actually show up to a soundcheck, this wouldn't have happened. Notice that the other guys aren't having the issues that Ace is having? That's because they showed up PRIOR to showtime and did a proper soundcheck
@JokersWild70 Ace has someone do sound check for him. His tech Rocco does it. I agree that Ace should do sound check himself, bit that being said they did do soundcheck and everything was fine. Something happened between when the opening act left the stage and when Ace's band went on. The mics were even malfunctioning. Something happened that threw everything out of wack.
@@RocknRollAllNight Well, you were there, so I do take your word for it. I'm not sure what the hell could've changed, but it does happen. Thanks for the correction
I am from Woonsocket.... and this sums it up well.... seriously... soundman is like. Ace your at 11 bro.,... stop drinking... wow... terrible man.... just wow space man
Ace keeps saying that his new record is SO GREAT, and the best he's done since his '78 solo effort, yet he plays exactly one song off of it 😂😅 What a masterpiece!
Ace looks as excited to be on stage as he would be selecting a new floor mat for his bathroom. The pentatonic scale has instructed its attorney to file a cease and desist order against Ace.
Sadly, Ace has morphed into a pretty bad guitarist at this point. Drugs and alcohol have clearly had a big effect. He misses notes, his timing is off, and his vocals are horrible. He's just kind of fumbling his way through these songs. I will say this though....back in the day, nobody had cooler moves, charisma and persona onstage than Ace.
I'd say EVH's moves were always better than Ace's...I mean what did Ace really do? Stood in one spot for the most part and leaned! WOW, impressive! LOL Gene had 100x more energetic moves than early in the '70s...same goes for Paul!
@@ernestgarcia755 Still great? lol He just stands there fumbling through his guitar leads missing most notes. Occasionally, he'll bang his guitar on his thigh. Hardly great.
I was at that show. What a disappointment it was. I always said the sound man is a member of the band. He can make you or break you. He broke Ace that night.
