He co-founded Kiss in 1973 in New York City alongside Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons, and Peter Criss. Ace Frehley suffered near-electrocution on stage during a concert in 1976 in Florida. He was almost electrocuted when he grabbed the railing of a metal staircase while holding his guitar. This inspired him to write, Shock Me, which became a hit.

Lon Reddy, another class of 1976 student who attended the concert, is excited to visit the KISS50 Cadillac Exhibit at the Wexford Historical Society Museum. He is also looking to see the Rockumentary being shown at the CAPS Performing Arts Auditorium.
