In other news, during an interview with 92 KQRS, KISS co-founder Gene Simmons revealed he has collaborated with Ace Frehley on two songs for the guitarist's next solo album. 

Simmons: "Two days ago I was with Ace, who's not in the band — he used to be in the band three different times — and we wrote two songs. He asked me to write for his next solo record. So I went over to his place, way out in the desert some place, and we wrote two things."

Frehley recently guested on Eddie Trunk's Trunk Nation and discussed writing those two songs with Gene Simmons for his next album, KISS reunion rumours, Peter Criss' last solo show, and the 40th anniversary of Love Gun.
