As previously reported, Chorus & Verse scribe Matt Mrowicki has issued an interview with Ace. The following is a brief excerpt from the interview:

Q: You've been cited by an endless list of guitar heroes as a primary influence, not only in getting people to pick up their first guitars, but also shaping their sounds. Are you comfortable with owning such legendary "guitar god" status and is it something that you feel an obligation to live up to?

A: "The ironic thing is, I've never taken a guitar lesson in my life! (Laughs.) What can I say? I'm blessed to have musicians, some very successful, some just starting out, say that my playing is the reason they picked up a guitar.

I recently filmed an instructional DVD where I teach, or attempt to teach (laughs), my KISS songs 'Cold Gin' and 'Shock Me'. It'll be out in stores around the same time as the CD [Anomaly]."

Frehley recently issued the following update:

"We're a little over a month away from the release of Anomaly and I just want to thank all of you for the kind support you've given me!!

From your comments, I'm happy to hear you're enjoying the first single 'Outer Space'. Can't wait to play that track "live" for you in the near future.

My management team is scheduling a few "intimate" warm up shows before the release of the record. Keep checking back here at AceFrehley.com for the latest news and dates.

I can tell you that I'll be at The Viper Room in Hollywood, CA on Saturday, September 12th playing with my band as part of the Sunset Strip Music Festival. I'm told CHRIS CORNELL and KORN will also be performing. You can get tix here.

And because of all of your requests, my label Bronx Born Records will be holding Anomaly listening parties in selected cities starting this week, the first being held this Saturday, August 8th in Fresno, CA. Again, if you wanna attend and hear Anomaly from start to finish, tix will only be available here.

We'll talk soon. Get some rest. It's gonna be a CRAZY rest of the year!!!!! HA!!!!!"

Meanwhile, Ace's webmaster, David Souza reports: "Be sure to check out the newest merchandise here. I've gotten a lot of questions about the Anomaly laptop skins.... here they are.

Season Of Mist Records recently announced:

"The whole Season of Mist staff is immensely proud to announce that we inked a deal with legendary guitarist Ace Frehley, of KISS fame!

For the first time in nearly 20 years, Ace has emerged to add a new exclamation point to his celebrated solo career. Scheduled for liftoff on September 15th, the original KISS guitarist's fifth solo album, Anomaly, will be released on his own Bronx Born Records, with Rocket Science (USA) and Season of Mist (Europe) providing full label service platforms.

To commemorate the event, Gibson has created their second Ace Frehley signature Les Paul guitar - the first (in 1997) was one of the best-selling signature models of all time.

One of the most beloved personalities in rock 'n' roll, Ace is the man behind not only KISS' iconic logo, but the all-time stadium classic 'New York Groove'. The record includes several nods to his distinguished career throughout, from the pickup acrobatics of 'Fractured Quantum', through a supercharged cover of SWEET's 1975 classic 'Fox On The Run' to the unmistakable signature solo on 'Outer Space' and wah-wah scourge of 'Genghis Khan' (featuring backup vocals from MEAT LOAF's daughter PEARL ADAY).

It should go without saying, but "this album has some heavy, heavy songs," Ace promises."

Ace is scheduled to guest on the US nationally syndicated radio show Rockline, with host Bob Coburn, on September 16th at 8:30 PM (PT) / 11:30 PM (ET). Fans are encouraged to speak with the band by calling 1-800-344-ROCK (7625). For a station near you and for information regarding how to log onto the internet for the broadcast go to RocklineRadio.com.
