I would love to see KISS do more obscure songs on their last tour rather than the same old tired songs. I’d love to hear “Watching You “, “Almost Human”, Mr.Blackwell” and so on. This is awesome to see Ace do “Two Sides Of A Coin” and “Save Your Love”.
The GS band is even more killer with Ace. I am loving the Ace vibe on this cruise and classic cuts like pulling out Getaway. This backing band is awesome. One of my favs from Dynasty.
The quality of Ace's voice seems to hinge upon his mood. If he's happy he sings better than when he's stressed. Ace himself stated that his time on the KISS Kruise was not a happy one. Still...his voice is better than Paul's has become.
He shouldn't be singing then. He should hire a proper singer and concentrate on what he does best - playing the damn guitar. I can't believe all the excuses you KISStards make for these guys. I am a major KISS fan but I don't bullshit myself.
The thing about Ace's voice is that it's so horribly bad, that I like it. He's essentially tone-deaf (by his own admission), but it works for his personality. Gene's band have always been outstanding. They've been around a LONG time. Happy Ace got them in. there's a definite difference.
Yeah. And to have only been with Ace for what like two weeks or so? Something like that. And to attempt a song like save your love (which im not saying is very hard to play but still) to get Ace to do that song when never playing it live after almost 40 years is just awesome. Go Ace!
@@stevenmurray600: It's technically not hard to play, but you still have to learn it, gel with the band and be convincing with it. This band will push Ace to be better and he's always needed to be pushed to be better.
I didnt mean it was Easy to play it. Especially playing while doing lead vocal just was saying the attempt was great after only rehearsing with these guys for a very short period of time. Sounding good to me. Ace will get better at singing it if he keeps doing it beyond this KI⚡⚡cruise
Keep in mind...this is a phone recording in the middle of the ocean. I think if you were there it would've sounded much better, or if you could hear everything mixed together. I love that he's trying to give fans something new. I give ACE a ton of credit for being there for fans now. Also...Gene and Paul NEVER NEVER NEVER remember ANYTHING unless its rehearsed and put into a set list. Give Ace some time to remember and rehearse this stuff and I but it'll be great!
@@RnRDS I actually think he did rehearse...probably quite a bit. Ace is also the first guy to tell you he i the laziest dude in the world. So he probably learned it just enough to get through it. What's sad is he is almost there. If he plays it a few more times and corrects the solo...it's a must add to his regular set list!
Frehley had PLENTY of time to practice, learn & rehearse his material between the time he was booked for this cruise, and the date of the performance. He just didn't bother, because he's too lazy.
Saaaaaave youuuuur frontman... Savin' him, savin' him.... Saaaaaaaave yoooouuuuur frontman... Savin' him, savin' him... Save your frontman, I don't want him Save him before I throw a fit Save your frontman, I don't need him He can't sing or play worth a shit
Breando he who is “the man” is typically considered “the frontman”. Yes, these songs are almost 40 years old- but he chose to do a set heavy with classics he’d never done live before. One would assume there had to be rehearsals as evidenced by the fact that the backing band knew the song front to back. Check the other videos from Ace’s show.... backing band on spot for every song. Ace was forgetting lyrics (even with a Teleprompter) and having problems with his guitar solos. He’s used the excuses of “I was tired”, “i had a cold,” “I’m a little tone deaf as I get older from all this loud music” and “the lyrics were scrolling over on the wrong teleprompter” (as he points to his left). I love Ace and he’s done some great shit on his own, but the frontman fell flat this night.
John Barrell I didn’t say it wasn’t bad, I said that he’s not a frontman because the band is his backing band that he’s paying, they are not a band in their own right who pick their frontman, they are hired guns. I agree with you on all other points though, Ace fucked up.
54 guitarists in the band and they're only allowed the basic chords. Ace doesn't take advantage of them to focus on the singing. Wouldn't be surprised if Ace had a bass too.
Just seen em last night and it was great overall. At 48 I was tired and sore from just standing. I couldn’t help think how I’d survive touring at nearly 70. I’d pay just to see Ace fart on stage and bs with the audience.
You don't watch Ace to see a guitar virtuoso....you don't watch Ace for his vocal ability....you go see Ace because he IS rock and roll....raw, sloppy and sometimes out of tune!!! Fucking love it!!!
As much as I love ace and his contributions to KISS, this is exactly why he's not coming back. He being in place of tommy would just ruin the show. I would love fir him to make a guest appearance but to be the full time lead guitarist on a three year tour in full costume and makeup, get out of here
Ace was top of his game in 1979, his contribution to Dynasty was fantastic, songs and overall playing.
Might be one of the greatest songs from Ace.

Save Your Love & Hard Times, two of Kiss' (& Ace's) BEST!!
Love these songs, but Ace forgot the leads, and he's messing up some of the chords.
not one of his best on this day, pretty fucking tough to watch actually
The good stuff on that album is great. Charisma...is one of the worst songs ever though hahaha
Totally bro!
Who cares, at least he’s trying to do something special for his fans.
One of my favorite KISS songs from Dynasty. AWESOME!
......then wonder what you consider a bad song?
Mine too!!!
I love Ace's voice. It's like everything he says is a classic Bronx F U.
I absolutely love "Save Your Love"! Glad Ace is performing it live now. Such a hard driving, Rocking song!
Wow, this is already more than 5 years ago 😮
Ace ruled the ship! A lot better in person. Thanks Mike.
I'm so glad he's finally done this live
Awesome song
I sing this everyday
ACE FREHLEY (FOREVER)
The best live version I’ve heard yet, the backing band that Ace / Gene uses are awesome.
The only bad part is Ace
The GS band is even more killer with Ace. I am loving the Ace vibe on this cruise and classic cuts like pulling out Getaway. This backing band is awesome. One of my favs from Dynasty.
Cool to see them play this epic song live for the first time but to be honest, 40 years too late.
Ace is toast.
One of my all time favorite songs by any band! Thanks Ace for doing this gem live!
Ace is AMAZING!!! The new band is on 🔥 fire!!! So is Ace!!!
Simply the best!
Great song, one of my favourites
One of my favorite Songs!!!
I was there
One of my favorite Ace songs. I hope he adds this to the song list. I think once he gets comfortable playing it again, he'll sound better.
I love Ace's rough around the edges version.
The quality of Ace's voice seems to hinge upon his mood. If he's happy he sings better than when he's stressed. Ace himself stated that his time on the KISS Kruise was not a happy one. Still...his voice is better than Paul's has become.
Maybe cause Paul has played 100x more concerts
You nailed it.
Rock on ACE!
"This is a song I've never done live before" clearly
He and they are sounding awesome
wow those harmonies are wretched
He should have let the guys do the backing vocals on the chorus - oldest trick in the book.
Hell yeah…I fukin luv it
A classic song!! ACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the king....ace frehley. the man who gave kiss their sound.
Lol. How are your real dolls, KISStard?
I came here for Ace- Instead I found a copy of Weekend at Bernies.
Love Ace's tone he makes a guitar sing,lost art form.
You mean previously ,right? Not here?
" In your face Tommy " !!!! 🏀🔥
More like Watching Frehley fall completely flat, on his...
Ace...stop being so proud. Let your other guitarists re-teach you these songs (deep cuts especially)in at least 1 rehersal.
Fantastic. Thanks for posting
This is a great song with a great solo.....the original on dynasty
Ack! Ace is the best!
Hell yeah his new band kick ass
nice to hear it..!!!! save your love!!!
Awesome
Oh my, this was Hideous... including the solo... the studio version is fantastic though!
Can anyone name one poor Kiss-song that Ace wrote?. Yes, theres none......
those are some impressive harmonies. omfg
Ouch!
Ace's new band rocks! Well....Gene's old band.
Ace has never claimed to be a singer. Just enjoy the music.
Fair enough, but what about the actual playing? It's horrid.
planktonau so whats the fucking point to record so many solo albums ? And fucking insist on touring?Ace is an idiot!!!!
He shouldn't be singing then. He should hire a proper singer and concentrate on what he does best - playing the damn guitar. I can't believe all the excuses you KISStards make for these guys. I am a major KISS fan but I don't bullshit myself.

Its cool cause it sounds raw.
Yeah. And to have only been with Ace for what like two weeks or so? Something like that. And to attempt a song like save your love (which im not saying is very hard to play but still) to get Ace to do that song when never playing it live after almost 40 years is just awesome. Go Ace!

Which i hope he does because its my favorite song of Dynasty. Always thought he should do that one live 👍
must have been great to hear live......
Thats classic!
Was it me or did it sound like Ace played the solo in the wrong Key...?
I think Ace just forgot how to play guitar...
Keep in mind...this is a phone recording in the middle of the ocean. I think if you were there it would've sounded much better, or if you could hear everything mixed together. I love that he's trying to give fans something new. I give ACE a ton of credit for being there for fans now. Also...Gene and Paul NEVER NEVER NEVER remember ANYTHING unless its rehearsed and put into a set list. Give Ace some time to remember and rehearse this stuff and I but it'll be great!
I get your point but he should have rehearsed this (and Getaway) before a public appearance of this level. To me this is far below his standards.
@@RnRDS I actually think he did rehearse...probably quite a bit. Ace is also the first guy to tell you he i the laziest dude in the world. So he probably learned it just enough to get through it. What's sad is he is almost there. If he plays it a few more times and corrects the solo...it's a must add to his regular set list!
I think the ocean is underrated in this video too. If he is anything like me on a boat, he'd rather be hungover
@@RnRDS I love Ace, but performances like this is why Tommy Thayer is in the space suit, and he isn't.
Frehley had PLENTY of time to practice, learn & rehearse his material between the time he was booked for this cruise, and the date of the performance. He just didn't bother, because he's too lazy.
was he off mic or just stumbled and forgot 1/2 the lyrics?
Ace practice once or twice before hitting stage, please. Still great to see him on the cruise and to hear some rarely played songs.
Saaaaaave youuuuur frontman... Savin' him, savin' him.... Saaaaaaaave yoooouuuuur frontman... Savin' him, savin' him...
Save your frontman, I don't want him
Save him before I throw a fit
Save your frontman, I don't need him
He can't sing or play worth a shit
777zippy777 😂😂😂😂😂
“Frontman”??....it’s Ace Frehley and he wrote this song in the 70s and has never played it live, there’s no frontman, he ‘is’ the man!
Breando he who is “the man” is typically considered “the frontman”.

Breando gotcha! Agree!
Wish he would have remembered the lyrics.
And the solo
Yeah 👍
one of the best singing one of the best songs
From the "disco" album
2018? live premiere? took some time, didn't it?
And people wonder why is he not in the KISS anymore... heh
Love the heavy version even if aces forgot the world
Fucking ace is rocking those classics......sorry gene and Paul.....cant say the same....... ACE FUCKING FREHLEY!!!!!!
Nice
1000x better than Paul today
Ace Frehley está no navio?????? E não está no KIss ?????
54 guitarists in the band and they're only allowed the basic chords. Ace doesn't take advantage of them to focus on the singing. Wouldn't be surprised if Ace had a bass too.
wtf is happening at 1:18
Just seen em last night and it was great overall. At 48 I was tired and sore from just standing. I couldn’t help think how I’d survive touring at nearly 70. I’d pay just to see Ace fart on stage and bs with the audience.
Fucken Unreal !
Great song but it just reminds me how much Ace can’t sing his way out of a paper bag
the band is great
Never mind learning the song, Ace. No wonder why Gene and Paul have kept “fake-Ace” in the band for 20 years. This guy is spent.
Cracking solo in this track
Is he on muscle relaxers or something? He looks dead and completely disinterested. Oh wait, I know what it is: He's tired. Again.
Ack. Curley
Dude is almost 70 years old. I hope to be ALIVE by the time I'm 70...let alone up on stage rocking out like I'm in my 20's and 30's.
I thought same thing
Yep, sadly he doesn't look too well
Or maybe it’s because he’s 70 and has lead a rocknroll lifestyle of booze and drugs, give the guy a break.
Ace is an original
Tem muito Brasileiro aí Kisseiros!!!!!!!!!!!
Forgotten jewels
Sorry but not even close to the solo from Dynasty.
Well he tried 🤣, he needs to rehearse this one a little more and I think he could nail it.
Ace Say save his love With windy and Rachelle True Yup
The one and only Spaceman!
You're right... But that Spaceman needs to rehearse a bit more...
This is why Tommy is the spaceman
I can see why he went with the new band.
Ace's backing band sounded great. Ace gave it a good try. Bless'em.
Ace it's just 4 chords....
Ace sabemos de tu talento pero ya la fanaticada te quiere ver con tu maquillaje y vestimenta de El spaceman
PHUCKING AWESOME!!!!
Excelente canción Se escucharía mejor si estuviera tú vestimenta y maquillaje del space man
I’m
Not trying to hate
But this does sound crap
I don’t get why people pay so much to go and see this
This one is really great, except the solo which is on the wrong key, c´mon Ace you gotta rehearse a litle before go on stage !!!
i dont mean to rip on a legend, i love ace and all but this performance was garbage. she should stick to not playing it live
People, this is on ship's deck in the middle of the ocean through somebody's recording...it was never going to sound great.
Reminder this is LIVE! There's no bullshit backing tracks like most rock and metal bands are using today!!!
Live, yes. And it still sucks. Let's call it what it is, shall we? Why make excuses?
Like KISS is using today lol
Ouch
But he played it live in milwaukee on the rocket ride tour in 2008.
Ace no necesita de KISS..
You don't watch Ace to see a guitar virtuoso....you don't watch Ace for his vocal ability....you go see Ace because he IS rock and roll....raw, sloppy and sometimes out of tune!!! Fucking love it!!!
Save your love! and Save our Republic.. #VOTERED. #MAGA
Don’t bring politics into this.... just enjoy the music
@@kevin2400 what country do we live in?
As much as I love ace and his contributions to KISS, this is exactly why he's not coming back. He being in place of tommy would just ruin the show. I would love fir him to make a guest appearance but to be the full time lead guitarist on a three year tour in full costume and makeup, get out of here
Where did all the Ace haters come from all of a sudden?
