AC/DC OFFERING TICKET REFUNDS FOR LONDON SHOW

AC/DC fans who have bought tickets for the band’s show in London are being offered the chance to claim a refund.

Seetickets customers who bought tickets for the June 4th show at the Olympic Stadium were sent an email giving them the opportunity to claim a refund.

The show is part of the band’s Rock Or Bust world tour and will feature Guns N’ Roses man Axl Rose on lead vocals after Brian Johnson was ordered to stop touring or risk going deaf.

Ace Frehley has cracked the U.S. top 10 with his latest effort Origins: Vol. 1 charting at number one on the Billboard Hard Music Chart, number three on the Billboard Rock chart and number six on the Billboard Current chart selling 16k units in its first week of release according to Nielsen Soundscan. Origins: Vol.1 and its success serves as the follow up to Space Invader, which debuted at number nine on the Top 200 Chart in 2014, the same year Ace Frehley was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame with KISS.

The space Ace also confirms today, for the first time, that his all new music video for Fire and Water will feature his former band mate and KISS’ co founding frontman Paul Stanley, and will be released Wednesday, April 27th, coincidentally Frehley’s 65th birthday.

The music video holds its place in rock and roll history as the first time in 14 years that Ace Frehley and Paul Stanley shared a stage since KISS’ appearance at the 2002 Winter Olympic Games in Salt Lake City. It’s also the first time Frehley has released a music video since 1989, which was Frehley’s cover of Do Ya by ELO and The Move.

Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Frehley released Origins Vol. 1, a collection of 12 newly recorded classics from Ace’s formative years featuring some of the biggest names in rock and roll on April 15th. This collaboration marks the first time that Ace and Paul appear on the same studio recording since KISS’ 1998 reunion album Psycho Circus.

Other guests on Ace’s album include: Slash trading leads on Thin Lizzy’s classic Emerald, Lita Ford singing and playing lead on The Troggs staple Wild Thing, Rob Zombie guitarist John 5 playing guitar alongside Ace as he sings his classic KISS composition Parasite for the very first time, as well as Jimi Hendrix’s Spanish Castle Magic, and Pearl Jam’s Mike McCready also plays guitar with Ace as he finally sings his KISS Alive! mainstay Cold Gin.

L.A. GUNS’ PHIL LEWIS ONSTAGE COMMENTS DEEMED “RACIST”

L.A. Guns frontman Phil Lewis has caused controversy by saying that “black people are all one-dimensional.”

The band were onstage at the Fish Head Cantina in Baltimore, Maryland, on April 22nd when he made the comment. The outburst came as he attempted to praise the life and music of Prince, who died aged 57 on April 21st.

Lewis recalled L.A. Guns’ early days, when they played First Avenue in Minneapolis – the club where much of Prince film Purple Rain was shot in 1984.

He told the crowd, “I remember when we were working on Cocked And Loaded, we were on tour, and they said there was a venue that we could play in Minnesota – First Avenue.

I didn’t know too much about it at the time, but after I saw the movie, I got it. We were all into that Prince, right? It was so cool, because you had your heavy s–t, and you had the pop s–t – and there was Prince doing his own f–king thing.

The problem is, right now – and I’m not gonna be a racist about it – but black people are all one-dimensional. We need more Princes.

We need less f–king rappers and more people like Prince. There, I said it.”

Lewis later moved to clarify his comments in a Facebook post which has since been removed, saying he was simply attempting to broaden the debate on rap music.

He told Metal Sludge, “It seems I have ruffled a few PC feathers with my onstage comment from Friday’s show. I stand by my words and make no apology for my observations. Perhaps “black media” would have been a better choice of words than “black people.”

“I was just thinking about the AA family who recently moved in the house next to mine. They’re all very nice but it’s obvious that they’re drinking the gangsta rap or hoops mentality Kool Aid – is that racist as well?

My solution has been to provide and teach the two 10 year olds basic guitar with the hope it will broaden their horizons as it did mine. Don’t expect there will be a new Prince anytime soon but damn sure there will be countless rappers spouting the “money and dos” moronic nonsense that does the black community no favors at all.”

He added, “I’m sure there are plenty of multi-dimensional brilliant musicians out there but not likely to hear about them on mainstream black media. Shame. More Princes, less rappers.”
