May 25, 2006

KissKollector.com has issued the following update:

"After the announcement of a surprise guitarist to join the all star band that will pay tribute to KISS in Las Vegas tonight for 'VH1 Rock Honors' by playing 'God Of Thunder' on the show, rumors went all over the place about who this might be. Apart from several other famous axe slingers, Ace Frehley has (obviously) been mentioned often in these rumors. Well, it's pretty save now to place your bets on the original Spaceman indeed, as Ace has meanwhile been spotted in Las Vegas."

"VH1 Rock Honors" is the first-ever show to pay homage to the legends who influenced the sound of hard rock. This year's celebration will honor the music and influence of JUDAS PRIEST, KISS, QUEEN and DEF LEPPARD. Premiering on Wednesday, May 31 at 9:00 p.m., "VH1 Rock Honors" will be taped at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas on Thursday, May 25 and will include performances by all of the honorees as well as tribute performances by GODSMACK, FOO FIGHTERS (who will be paying tribute to QUEEN) and THE ALL-AMERICAN REJECTS (DEF LEPPARD). Riki Rachtman will serve as backstage announcer.

As previously reported, an all-star band consisting of Rob Zombie (vocals),Slash (guitar; VELVET REVOLVER, ex-GUNS N' ROSES),Tommy Lee (drums; MÖTLEY CRÜE),and Scott Ian (bass — yes, bass; ANTHRAX) — plus a "special-surprise" second guitarist — will be performing the song "God of Thunder" as a tribute to KISS.
