[Ace Frehley comments on Alex (MP3, 0.58M)]

As you may or may not know, Rush often toured with Kiss "back in the day". Both bands have fond memories of eachother on the road. Ace Frehley was recently on the Eddie Trunk radio show and Eddie brought up the fact that he had just interviewed Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson. roll the bones, a member at Counterparts, taped this portion of the interview and was kind enough to post an mp3 of it. Here's a transcript I put together.

...

Eddie: I interviewed Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson not too long ago and Alex does an impression of you. I don't know if you know that.

Ace: Boy we had some funny times in the hotel room. He used to put a bag over his head and paint this crazy face on it... and smoke pot through the eye and ah ... god.

Eddie: He said that to me when - I looked at him and he said to me...

Ace: I got a polaroid of him with this bag on his head - it's the funniest... jesus

Eddie: 'Cuz Rush opened more shows for Kiss than any other group and I was telling them that you and I were friends and he looked at me with this big smile and he's like "oh man tell him I said hello". he goes "we had the best times on the road". he goes "it's 25 years ago but I remember it like it was yesterday". he goes "we had the best times".

Ace: Yeah, we did
