Ace Frehley's Journey from Bronx Kid to Kiss's Iconic Spaceman

Imagine a kid from New York who loved playing guitar.

He saw an ad looking for a guitarist with 'flash and ability,' and his mom even drove him to the audition.

This was Ace Frehley, and he joined a band called Kiss.

Kiss was super famous because they wore crazy costumes and makeup, like superheroes, and played loud rock music.

Ace, known as 'The Spaceman,' was known for his amazing guitar solos and cool stage tricks, like shooting fireworks from his guitar!

Kiss sold tons of albums and were loved by millions.

But after many years, Ace got tired of all the marketing and started having problems with drugs, so he left the band.

He played music on his own for a while, and then, years later, he joined Kiss again for some special concerts.

He still thinks it's pretty wild that he became famous wearing makeup and costumes!
