2014 Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame member Ace Frehley today has debuted a brand new music video for his cover of Free’s 1970 hit Fire and Water featuring none other than KISS frontman Paul Stanley. The video is being premiered exclusively through VEVO, watch it below.
“It was great working with Paul again and all the years we’ve spent apart doing other projects seemed to vanish once we hit the stage!,” says Frehley.
The video notches itself into rock and roll history as the first time both Frehley and Stanley appear in a music video since KISS’ music video for Psycho Circus released in 1998. It’s also the first time in 14 years that the two shared a stage since KISS’ appearance at the 2002 Winter Olympic Games in Salt Lake City. Finally, it’s the first time Frehley has released a music video since 1989, which was Frehley’s cover of Do Ya released by both The Move and ELO.
Earlier this week, Acw 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 more than 16k units in its first week of release according to Nielsen Soundscan. Internationally, the LP most notably came in at number two on the Sweden Hard Rock Charts and at five on the England Indie Album Breaker Charts.
Following on the heels of their successful winter tour, Jason Bonham has confirmed plans for an extensive tour this spring with his band, Jason Bonham’s Led Zeppelin Experience. The tour begin Friday, May 6th at the Aztec Theatre in San Antonio, TX as the bands kicks-off a 20+ date trek across the United States with shows lined up in Los Angeles, Houston, Dallas, Cincinnati, Orlando, Las Vegas, and more.
Tickets for the first 21 concerts are on-sale now. Visit jasonbonham.net for complete tour and ticket information including special VIP Experience packages and added shows.
Encompassing hits from Led Zeppelin’s entire career, including albums Led Zeppelin, Led Zeppelin II, Led Zeppelin IV and Physical Graffiti, the setlist and production celebrates the life and music of Jason’s father, the legendary Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham. Rolling Stone said, “with state-of-the-art lighting and effects, dazzling video treatments and a crisp, thundering sound, the JBLZE offered a set of Led Zep gems that were strikingly faithful to the originals.
Jason Bonham, who famously filled in for his dad, the late-John Bonham, said of The Experience: “It’s part storyteller, with using the multimedia screens and things, we’re creating little pieces which I narrate over, which give some little background over some songs we play — and the reason why I’m playing them. There’s stories of myself growing up with dad and how Zeppelin has been, y’know, part of my life from the beginning.”

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.
The message reads, “You have the opportunity to request a refund of your ticket. Refunds will be available from now until 5pm on Friday, May 6th.”
Opinion over whether AC/DC should have brought in a replacement for Johnson or cancelled the tour has been split, with many saying Rose is the wrong choice, while other fans have defended the decision.
It is not yet clear whether refunds will also available for the June 9th show in Manchester, or other Rock Or Bust tour dates.
