Call it a bad case of Classic Rock deja vu. 37 years ago Kiss Guitarist Ace Frehley was electrocuted on stage. This morning. An electrical fire caused by a tree falling in the backyard. Destroyed Ace Frehley's home. The musician quickly responded on Face Book: I'm very thankful that no one was hurt! The fire department and police did a great job, and I'm very grateful to them for all of their help and courage in this matter...job well done. Speaking of Classic Rock fires.
