Ace Frehley

One thing I love to do is produce. I've produced a couple of bands. I mean, nothing ever really happened with 'em, but I enjoy getting a young band into the studio and guiding them, and making them feel at ease.

Once you come and see Kiss, you either love us or you hate us.

I went to my friend's house one day, and he had an electric guitar he had just bought with a tiny little amp. I turned the volume up to 10 and I hit one chord, and I said, I'm in love.

People, y'know, they either love us or they hate us; there's no middle ground.

I don't like to practice; I like spontaneity. When I don't play guitar for a week and I pick it up again, I play better.

My life has been a roller coaster ride, but somehow I've always been able to land on my feet and still play the guitar.

I loved playing the guitar and I knew I was pretty good at it, so that's what I wanted to do with my life.

I knew I was destined to do a solo album, but when I did that first album in 1978, I had no idea it was going to be that well received.

I think the fans really wanna hear the songs the way they sound on the record.

As long as I know what key the solo is in, I try to kind of empty my mind and not think about anything. I just play without thinking.

Finding a good band is Iike finding a good wife. You got to keep trying till you find the right one.

I've been around a long time, so I guess I've touched a lot of people's lives - hopefully for the better.
