- KISS on Tom Snyder's 'Tomorrow Show' on Halloween Night 1979 (Best quality I have seen) On Oct. 31, 1979, the personality conflicts that had been privately tearing Kiss apart were made public on live national television.
It took about only 18 seconds for the band's appearance on Tom Synder's Tomorrow show to go off the rails. That's the moment when a clearly inebriated Ace Frehley starts cackling and making jokes about being the lead "trout" player, riffing off Snyder's earlier off-camera mispronunciation of "bass" guitar. Frehley's increasingly boisterous jokes, laughter and interruption soon begin to dominate the proceedings, to the obvious annoyance of the band's usual spokesmen, Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons.
Stanley seems to laugh along through gritted teeth before immediately, but futilely, attempting to get the conversation back on course. Meanwhile, Simmons shoots death stares at his drunken bandmate, probably wishing he really could breathe fire.
But Snyder, who at one point notes that his producers had warned him Frehley would "be the hardest to make talk," clearly sees more value in his antics than the more standard biographical and promotional chatter being offered by the sober duo, and gamely eggs the Spaceman on...... - บันเทิง

Ace steals the show. Hilarious. The fact that Snyder goes along with it - much to Gene and Paul's seething silent frustration - makes it even funnier.
I know right. This is my favorite KISS TV appearance . Ace is a trip
That laugh at 30:34
+ at 8:44 best interruption by Ace 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@RocknRollAllNight 40 years ago just feel like yesterday. This interview have become my regular StressKiller 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@RocknRollAllNight u could hear Paul give that annoying junior high respond of Ooookkk
I love how Tom goes along with Ace and enables him in a way
Ikr. When I need a giggle I tune into this. 😄
Probably smelled the lame coming off of Gene and couldn’t help himself. I’d have put him and Peter in the spotlight as well!
Tom knew TV gold when he saw it
Admit it, weve all been Ace at one point in our life
seen this a 1000 times and never gets old
Absolutely 🤣🤣🤣 before i found this interview I never have any idea that watching interview could be this entertaining 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Comedy gold!
@@DrMidknight Ace killing it...
Gene and Paul.... slow burn....🤬
Gene reminds me of the kid in school that would act out or do anything it took to be the center of attention but when the attention wasnt on him he would just sit and pout!
I agree
For the memory of a laughtime I made this Ace laughstamp, enjoy.
3:59 the trout player
4:14 bass 🐠🐋🐟🐠🐋🐟???

8:44 why I spent all that money

25:19 that's true
30:28 the bombay concert (the ending)
Thank you.
I have 2 figure out how to make his laugh into my cellphone ring tone..
@@ADayInTheLifeofMrsPerkins Find some video editor and put link of this video in their link Column and then probably there's a cut feature and conversion to MP3. Something like that 👍👍👍
@@ADayInTheLifeofMrsPerkins and then maybe there's an option to make that Ace mp3 into Your ringtone 👍
@@ADayInTheLifeofMrsPerkinsFfff For THAT!! 😜
You forgot 22:07
There are so many moments within moments here. Gene can't handle not being in control like he usually is.
So true, Gene was so jealous. He couldn't see straight
While Ace laughed like a Boss 🤣🤣🤣
Watching Gene's reaction is the best part..priceless seeing him aggravated .
I could feel it. Anyone could. Gene should be ashamed of himself.
Many of us old guys started playing guitar because of Ace. He and Peter Criss are obviously the fans favorites.
you mean 'started' playing guitar because of Ace.... yes, i agree, and so did I in a way!
I’m a young guy n ace makes me wanna be a rock star so now I take guitar much more seriously
Gene & to some degree Paul were the actual disasters on the show. It's very easy to see Gene seething at the attention & time up front Ace & Peter are getting. Paul looked very uncomfortable but loosened up & at times seemed to be enjoying himself. Gene was another story, there's so much one can point out about Gene's behavior in this interview but something that usually slips under the radar is when Peter said he likes collecting & shooting guns, you can hear Gene trying to coach Peter with "you mean toy guns". Gene later said he was worried about the band's image & said Ace & Peter in this interview were destroying it but when Gene was asked by Snyder what he likes to do in his time off he jokingly opened with "orgies & human sacrifices". Human sacrifices - wtf? Drunk or not Ace ruled in this interview with his stories, sense of humor & back n forth banter with Tom. If Ace or Peter had followed "the script", kept quiet, only speaking when spoken to & giving brief short answers to Tom's questions we wouldn't be watching or talking about this 40 some odd years later.
I could not agree more!!
Well said
💯
This is a great comment!
Yup, spot on analysis
I love how all four of them genuinely laugh at Ace's "Why did I spend all that money?" comment.
😂😂...funny too the way he mimics crying and jumps out of his chair laughing his ass off right after
@@lonewolf1053 "I'm the trout player."
"No, actually I'm a plumber."
So much of what Ace does/says in this interview is legendary.
@@NathanF11989 Tom Snyder having a blast right with Ace and Peter!...😅
It’s nice to see them laughing together and enjoying themselves like friends given their intense four way hatred for each other …
Love him laughing
Ace: "I dont take drugs...
*Sniffs loudly
10:38 - "Gene was into telescopes" - Brilliant. Ace may of been drunk / stoned, but some of his lines are so funny
Gene needed to lighten up. Yeah, Ace was drunk, but he wasn't behaving badly. He was being funny and friendly and Tom was having a great time... it wasn't a bad interview, although Gene almost dragged it down with his sulking. Ace wasn't the problem here.
I keep watching re watching this from time to time. It’s been years and I don’t think it will stop.
My favorite Kiss interview. Ace is a trip
My favorite part is when Tom says Paul breaks his guitar into teensie weensie pieces and hands them out to the crowd and then they go home and trade it for food. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I know, what on earth?
Not a Kiss fan by any measure but this was GREAT Television. Superbly directed too. The Production, Tech and Stage Crew were on their game and captured a moment.
I'd love to see a psychologist on You-tub make a video where they analyze the whole segment particularly Gene & Paul's reactions, body language & facial expressions during the interview.
Gene and Paul were pissed
@Ange Why waste the money?
Gene's looks and Paul's indifference says it all.
In the latest KISStory documentary they said, that they were pissed because Ace was late for the interview, showed up drunk, and act like nothing happened. This is believeable knowing Ace. They also said something about Peter laughing but not because he found the situation funny, more like because he saw Gene and Paul embarassed. Also believeable. Plus this interview back in late 70s wasnt really helping them out, as their reputation wasnt best by this time, and for many people back in the days seeing a drunk Guy telling jokes on TV was a Red flag.
And while this May be True lets face it - the interview was iconic, and is one of the small bits that created the legend of KISS. That is also a price of fame, things like that can happen
@@RocknRollAllNight Gene obviously so but Paul doesn’t seem that angry….these are definitely the days when Gene held sway over Paul….now Paul openly ridicules him
12:30
Synder: “But you’re kind of like a Space Man eh”
Ace: “No actually I’m a plumber…HAHAHAAaaaaaaa….on the side”
Tom: I have a pipe that needs to be worked out ...
Ace: Tell me about it! Hahaha
what kills me is how the camera zooms in on Ace right when he says "tell me about it!"
Incredible this interview was 41years old yesterday
But I love the fact that I feel that as if this interview just happened yesterday 🤣🤣🤣🤣 it's timeless
Ace: The true inventor of the the very first Build-A-Bear, Space Bear 🐻 18:47
24:15 Gene's brief awkward forced laughter is hilarious 😂
The only interview when their guard is down, for virtually their whole career.
4 New Yorker guys , each one the polar opposite of the other. Gene & Paul may have been the career driven / sensible ones but they were entirely different personalities.
Ace’s humour is sublime. He may of been drunk & high but he had Snyder almost falling off the sofa, in hysterics.
When Ace cracks the big lines , like about the cows, and people crying about spending money seeing a KISS show, all of them break out laughing. Gene & Paul may of not been able to steer the interview in the normal way, but they were laughing as hard as anyone at the brilliant cracks from Ace.
Paul and Gene are delusional with thinking Ace and Peter ruined this. They’re the only ones that show any kind of personality and charisma. Paul and Gene are so unlikeable and have no personality in this, and taking themselves way too seriously. The reason anybody rewatches this interview today is because of Aces sense of humor and personality shining through. Well I wouldn’t even think he was drunk if it weren’t for Paul and Gene mentioning it every chance they can.
I wouldn’t go so far as to describe Paul as unlikeable. Gene, maybe (although his Asberger’s moment with horror movie trivia is admittedly endearing).
Ace is priceless in this interview, so hilarious, I love his laugh! =)
_Gene felt uptight that Saturday night,_
_Nine o'clock, Ace was the only li-i-ight..._
When the world learned there were two camps in Kiss
Exactly right. I will say though, Paul seems to be having a much better time than Gene lol
Ace" I almost died that night." Gene "We finished the show"
Ace is so funny!! At times he look like The Joker!!
I know, right? That's exactly how I have described him when telling people about this interview - I'm glad I'm not the only one who sees it.
There is another with better Quality, but Comments are disabled. The comments are the best part. Seeing what other KISS Army members have to say is what is bad ass!! Nice upload!
True, the comment section is part of the fun
Tom is having a blast with Ace and Peter...🤣🤣
Ace truly stole the show
6:26 *wait a minute we had no equipment we we’re broke Ace* 🤣
I guess they were rented the amp. They don't have equipment of their own. I assumed 😁😁😁
Its weird, on one level, you wish ace and peter took it more serious, but then on the flip side, you wish gene and paul would let loose
Ace and Peter not taking it serious is why this interview is so great.
“Taurus is an earth sign. Come on, let’s get back to reality”.
😂
I love that Tom is reading the intro off of index cards.
I’ve rewatched this interview a number of times over the years, brilliant, one of the best they ever did. I think the whole “Gene and Paul seething…” over Ace’s stealing the interview is overblown. I’m sure there was tension at times, alcohol didn’t help as Gene (like Frank Zappa) is a teetotaler and consequently his tolerance for Ace’s antics is short. Still, you know these guys had a lot of laughs along the way. I give Gene enormous credit for his Bill Graham inspired philosophy of “…people work their asses off 5 days a week to pay for a ticket to the show, what’s in it for them?” KISS has always delivered.
God of Thunder
"The only space bear in captivity"! Fucking priceless
Ace is hillarious
Tom Synder and Ace had an absolute laugh, the host was really at home and enjoyed each other’s banter. Gene and Paul seemed put out and annoyed at the attention Peter and Ace got.
My favorite Kiss interview
After Ace says he's the trout player you can see him at about 4:06 saying something like "what?", in response to probably Gene telling him to knock it off. Gene and Paul's assholes were puckered too tight.
Gene was a stick in the mud
Their New underwear like Tightness are legendary 🤣🤣🤣🤣
He was watching at Peter, Gene is in fron of him.
TH-cam could have put the translation since for years When they speak, we do not understand (french)
Ace.... Gotta love him!!
he was hilarious that night
We all do 👍👍👍👍
One of the GREATEST rock bands to ever take the stage.
what was Paul thinking answering in that way, no wonder a lot of people never took the band seriously.
I know they tried their best to keep the mystique but damn, Gene and Paul took it way too far.
No matter how many times I watch this, the part when Tom fucks up and calls Gene, "George" and how Peter says Oh my god, will always make me laugh.
I've heard about this before, only seen clips never the entire interview and wow, this is gold. The directors really sealed it, and if the camera operators weren't cued in it probably wouldn't be as funny. You can actually see the point when the camera operator starts repeatedly going back to Gene & Paul to capture their reactions after Ace lets loose. Gene scowling and Paul cringing is just priceless and really, if Ace wasn't wasted on Stoli we wouldn't still be watching this today. What an amazing piece of pop culture history.
I love this interview. I was fan from 74 to 77. It was obvious the deterioration of the band was in full gear.
I completely agree.
My favorite interview. Some people, including Gene, think it's terrible because Ace was so lively and on point. I don't think it was that bad, because it served its purpose of "getting them into themselves". Gene and Paul did have a few (feeble) laughs, but this was the first time that Ace really talked about himself on vamers. Yes, he was drunk, because he was nervous before the show. But if the viewers really listen to him, they'll learn more than the stock answers that Paul and Gene usually give.
Ace was always authentic. Gene and Paul were always giving scripted answers. This is my favorite rock band interview ever
💯
Fun fact: Tom Snyder had a small speaking part in an episode of the Rifleman with Chuck Connors. RIP Tom Snyder
While I’m not sure what to do with that information, thank you for the fun fact!
@@kramalerav I suppose just look for the episode Toms in,,,, clue, hes on a horse...
*tom laughs at ace*
Gene: you’re having a rotten time aren’t you tom?
I think gene was trying a jedi mind trick on tom lol
lol
"I'm the trout player!" Classic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tom set him up with the “piece of pipe backstage” remark and he swung for the fences without hesitation lol. Tom knew exactly what he was doing…
Maybe the best KISS interview ever. PC seems a bit absent. PS takes an active part. AF is just having a good time. Thanks to various substances. GS gets pointed out that he is not the center of attention. His face derails more than once. He has not learned to this day.
It is Kiss' best interview. It was great fun and Ace and Peter gave real answers to questions and not the Gene and Paul usual bullshit answers.
@@RocknRollAllNight That's right. PC looks a bit lost sometimes and tired. But when replys he is present. PS+GS are their own biggest fans and doing their usual "spinal tap'ish" show. 🙈
Gene and Paul (but mostly Gene) look like they are getting violent anal probes here.
Thank you for this!
This is endlessly fascinating and entertaining
Ace is the only one who seems like a fun guy.
Ace is hillarious
"But your kinda like a space man?" . . . Snyder
"No actually I'm a plumber," . . . Ace.
my favorite kiss interview of all time
Gene desperately wants to be the center of attention. It's funny watching him try to be so serious.
Even Tom Snyder looked at him crazy for a second...like...."Lighten up dude!...Snyder loves him some Ace!...
I've never seen Gene and Paul so happy lmao
lol
@@RocknRollAllNight 🤣
I wanna say that it does suck Gene and Paul turned out how they did cause kiss made great music dont get me wrong Ace Gene paul and peter were awesome i just dont understand why paul and gene turn out how they didnt what caused it @@RocknRollAllNight
That laugh 😂😂
Ah yes! George! My favourite member of Kiss.
George is HANDS DOWN everyone’s favourite KISS member. It’s a shame after this interview they completely wiped all mentions of George from KISStory.
Hilarious. G and Paul are so PISSED!
Luckily for them that they weren't Pissed on their pants 🤣🤣🤣 or.. Maybe
Gene was more pissed than Paul. Paul at times laughed. But back stage, who knows what Paul was like after the interview.
Gene seemed fascinated with Ace being able to build remote control helicopters with bluetooth technology that could be used on guitars. They all seemed pretty close it's sad how it turned out.
I always get the sense that Paul and Gene never truly hated Ace….that Ace is just such a head case that it’s hard to get truly angry at him….more so frustrated….and they recognized his talent and actually wished he would contribute more….whereas they seem to actively hate Peter….Peter seems volatile and violent, and unpredictable…..
They must have had some sort of camaraderie especially in the early days. Peter went completely nuts with the drugs/woman/stardom by Dynasty and started actively sabotaging the band live. Ace was just off the reals but as you said he had a lot of talent and was a bit of a savant. Absent the substance abuse he probably could have had a very good solo career or could have contributed well to another group. It’s abundantly clear from reading all their books that all four were dysfunctional with their own quirks. If not for their common goal they’d have never crossed paths. It’s a miracle they were able to accomplish what they did without actually killing each other.

*”Peter seems volatile..violent, and unpredictable..”*
What are you basing this off of? I didn’t get that feeling at all.
@@kramaleravme neither.
I love the original. Ying yang. Outa control verse always in control. This is why it worked. Getting up there in years. Whomever passes away first I'm sure all the others will attend the farewell
God bless the fun n great rock they stand for😎
Well said!
30:29 "If we did a concert in Bombay there would even be ----" What was that? "Cows"? Lol
9:08 Peter tells Ace after his oh I spent all that money joke "You'll suffer in the dressing room." Meaning Gene and Paul are going to read him the riot act in the dressing room after the show.
I never noticed that before. Thanks for pointing it out
"Tell me about it" this close camera so hilarious kkkkkkkkkkkkk
So, a lot is made of Gene being pissed at Ace and Peter during this interview. But it also always struck me that he didn’t much care for Paul saying he was a Jew, quickly speaking after and almost over him.
HEY. Stanley Eisen. You couldn't find CRIME In Queens. .New York😂😂😂.
LOL
8:51 Woah nelly, the audio went bonkers for a second
ALL of Gene's jokes fell flat! Don't try to compete with Ace in the joke department, Gene!
Ace was hilarious!! My favorite rock band interview of all time!!
Gene has the comedic timing of a dead goat.
" ace is famous for his bad balance" bwwaaahaaa
I would have loved to drink with ace and Peter in their prime !!
Paul Stanley has no sense of humor. He is clearly annoyed because unlike the concerts he doesn't dominate the conversation. Watch any given Kiss concert and you'll see Paul's boring cliché monolouges. Ace did rock n roll all nite and party on Tomorrow that day!
Even from the beginning it is clearly that Gene and Paul was trying to dominated the interview toward Plain tasteless Boring conversation and trying to put all of us to sleep. While Ace manage to keep us Awake and laughed the whole time. Thank you Ace 😎😎😎
Ace is hilarious!! Was never a Kiss fan.
Saw them open for Maiden in Long Beach in 84’ no make up. I have to admit, they put on one of the best live shows I’ve ever seen.
KISS never opened for anyone in the 80s
Ace is a hoot. 👍🏼
I love them so much
It’s so awkward when Gene keeps shouting out to his mom lol
31:27 Got to give it to Gene... Calling Tom "Ralph" because of the "Bass" thing.
Ace and Peter should’ve fired Gene and Paul, not the other way around.
This is possible ility the finest class act video. Peter Criss drip down.
Classic Ace.....
Great interview......
The part where Paul talks about sleeping with a 16 year old. Yikes.
That RULES. Ace is the MAN!
I never cared for KISS' disco fallout. 2000 Man, a Stones cover, ranks as the hot song from 'Dynasty.'
14:51 Paul having a good laugh along with Ace and Peter. I think Gene was the stick in the mud.
No, actually I’m a plumber. Epic as Dark Souls.
best ever
I wish I had Aces laugh. Love it
Do you guys think they didn't put the second part of the interview on Kissology Volume 1 because of Paul's scandalous hotel story? And the fact that Tom called Gene "George" lol.
Human vs Corporate; who'll win?
Mentioning Dan Ackroyd wasn't intentional but it must have poked Paul's heart just a bit. Anyone know why?
I think he stole Paul’s GF at the time
Paul was dating Donna Dixon and ended up marrying Akroyd. He had no idea she was even seeing him
I wonder if Tom did go to a KISS show way back when. - 32:09
Actually I’m a Plumber 🧑🔧 😂
That pipe line is too much !
17:10 "Go to Paul´s!" lmao
Space bear!
6:57 Paul and Gene getting furious because Ace and Peter keep taking the attention from them
I think we all know Ace stole the show. But the others added cool stories and good content. Gene gets a bad rap here. He was witty and trying to be edgy. Unfortunately for him Ace and Tom Snyder had the TV chemistry and Gene couldn’t equal it. Great show either way.
my favorite kiss tv moment.
@@RocknRollAllNight def! That and the Mike Douglas show with Totie Fields lol
⭐⭐⚡⚡⭐⭐ there is not a kiss-song i can think of that i do not like...but when it comes to ace...he sounded different...special...his songs are ace-songs !!!⭐⭐⚡⚡⭐⭐
Dude has an easy going cavalier talent for song writing…rocket ride is a total opus….parasite is amazing, even dark light is excellent
@@decristo1021 His streetwise voice seals the deal on his songs.
Ace admits he was so wasted during this interview, look at the pissed off faces Gene gives
I see a lot of people saying that Gene and Paul seemed aggravated and that Ace stole the show. It recently came out in a documentary that at this time Ace and Peter had been messing up (getting drunk and high, being late to shows, acting up etc). Gene and Paul took it very serious and weren’t into drugs, drinking or nonsense. So if you rewatch this knowing this information, you’ll probably see it differently.
Wouldn't have mattered much because most of us knew this snd still, Ace shined and even if he shined sober..those two would've been annoyed.
27:12 i wonder if they were telling him not do the Nazi salute because it kind of looked like he was about to after he mentioned the Germans...
If so, I'm glad they stopped him
He actually kinda did though
That would've been funny but really damaging hahaha
An interesting moment, considering Paul's later suggestions that Ace and Peter were a bit anti-semitic. If Ace actually was going for the salute, I'm not suggesting for a moment that he would have meant it seriously, but to even do a it jokingly in front of your two Jewish bandmates is kind of on the nose, to put it mildly.
@@pszczolka80pun unintended? 🙈😆
ACE didnt steal the show-they shoul;d have been on multiple times they were all equally represented
9:29 ace says "I dont take drugs" ACE IS LYING!!!!
That Gene wants to be so serious while wearing that getup is pretty rich. Ace took it all in for what it was: fun rock and roll.
Who pissed in your Wheaties? He absolutely shined that night. Gene and Paul are scripted people. You can absolutely tell who is trying to put on aires and who is down to earth and funny.
Also, anyone on booze and drugs back in the day sat and said it in interviews. It only came out after either getting arrested, out in rehab snd stuff like that. Ace wasn't the only one in the entertainment business to do that.
