Ace Frehley, No Regrets, A Rock 'N' Roll Memoir


No Regrets is at it's basic a sex, drugs and rock and roll book. With plenty of great stories about the band KISS. 
Not only is "Space Ace" an accomplished guitarist/singer/songwriter/performer/inventor, now Ace is also a published author. 
Great Book! Finally got around to scanning this book cover, been meaning to for awhile.
I did not review the book on purpose to peak your interest, to hopefully get you out to a bookstore or a library to go out and get a copy to read for yourself.

Andy Irvine, Warwick, Music City, Buffalo NY


I must thank world renowned bassist and recording artist ANDY IRVINE. Andy is a Rochester, NY native who recently gave a great in-house Warwick bass guitar clinic at Music City music store in Buffalo NY. Look for the feature article about Andy and Music City in the latest Buffalo Night-Life Magazine.
For all of you out there in blog land who are fans of punk rock Andy played on GG Allin's last recording, unfortunately 6 months later GG died of a drug overdose.
Andy Irvine is alive and well! and Andy displayed some exceptional bass playing techniques on his favorite fretless and fretted Warwick electric basses at the in-store Warwick electric bass clinic. Check out www.andyirvinegroup.com to learn more about Andy, his new CD and where Andy's new Warwick bass in-store tour will take him next. Thank You Andy!

Special thanks to Vince at Music City for providing a ticket to your favorite blogger for the in-store Andy Irvine Warwick electric bass guitar clinic. Music City is located on 3236 Main Street in Buffalo NY.
