<div>THE MUSIC, THE MAKEUP, THE MADNESS, AND MORE. . . . In December of 1972, a pair of musicians placed an advertisement in the Village Voice: &#8220;GUITARIST WANTED WITH FLASH AND ABILITY.&#8221; Ace Frehley figured he had both, so he answered the ad. The rest is rock &#8217;n&#8217; roll history. He was just a boy from the Bronx with stars in his eyes. But when he picked up his guitar and painted stars on his face, Ace Frehley transformed into &#8220;The Spaceman&#8221;&#8212;and helped turn KISS into one of the top-selling bands in the world. Now, for the first time, the beloved rock icon reveals his side of the story with no-holds-barred honesty . . . and no regrets. For KISS fans, Ace offers a rare behind-the-makeup look at the band&#8217;s legendary origins, including the lightning-bolt logo he designed and the outfits his mother sewed. He talks about the unspoken division within the band&#8212;he and Peter Criss versus Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons&#8212;because the other two didn&#8217;t &#8220;party every day.&#8221; Ace also reveals the inside story behind his turbulent breakup with KISS, their triumphant reunion a decade later, and his smash solo career. Along the way, he shares wild stories about dancing at Studio 54 with &#8220;The Bionic Woman,&#8221; working as a roadie for Jimi Hendrix, and bar-flying all night with John Belushi. In the end, he comes to terms with his highly publicized descent into alcohol, drugs, and self-destruction&#8212;ultimately managing to conquer his demons and come out on top. This is Ace Frehley. No makeup. No apologies. No regrets.</div>
