From: Kulick.net

Posted: March 10, 2008

It is not often that I get to see any shows when I travel for my Grand Funk gigs, unless we are on a festival bill with other bands of course. But this past Friday night was very different as I was able to see ACE FREHLEY and The Tubes in concert at the same showroom in Michigan that GFR would play on Saturday night.

I thought it would be a great double bill, as I knew The Tubes from years ago, being on a bill with them in the early 80's with Michael Bolton oddly enough. I caught the last half of the show, and "White Punks On Dope" is a fun song. Fee Waybill was quite entertaining in his 12 inch heels and crazy glam outfit. It is power pop with a crazy sense of humor. They ended the show with "Talk To Ya Later" another strong hit from the band.

But truthfully I was really there to see Ace like all the KISS fans in the crowd. I was aware that he was touring with a solid band, and that he was doing all the hits from his solo career and KISS. I had NOT seem him as a solo artist before so I was looking forward to the show. I was aware he wasn't feeling well that night as the sound man, Night Bob, is an old friend of mine. He said Ace was getting over a chest cold, but to be honest Ace didn't let it keep that him down.

As he sang later in the set "Ace is back, I told you so!" After some high pitch feedback noise from his excellent looking Les Paul Custom signature model, Ace got down to business pleasing the crowd. I didn't take notes with the set list, but of course I enjoyed songs like "Breakout", (dedicated to ERIC CARR), "Parasite", "Strange Ways", "Rip It Out", "Rock Soldiers", and "New York Groove". He even did a bit of "I Want You" in one of the songs.
