Space Ace is known as the funny guy in KISS, here`s some funny quotes:

When you take a shower in space, you have to press the water onto your body to clean yourself, and then you gotta vacuum it off.


I believe that the only way that the human race is gonna survive is to start colonizing space and setting up colonies on the moon, and then space stations.

I can't even read notes. But I can teach someone how to make a guitar smoke.

As long as I know what key the solo is in, I try to kind of empty my mind and not think about anything. I just play without thinking.

Finding a good band is Iike finding a good wife. You got to keep trying till you find the right one.
