Alice Cooper has announced his return to the stage, and he's bringing a friend: former Kiss guitarist Ace Frehley. The pair will join forces for a series of shows in September and October.

“We’ve always had fun touring together, and it should be a heavy rock show with Ace and a great way to get everyone back to live concerts again,” the shock rocker said in a new statement. “It should be a great night of virtuoso guitars!”

Frehley agreed. “I’ve known Alice for over 30 years," he said. "We’re good friends, and we’ve toured together numerous times and always had a blast. Our musical roots are very similar, and the combination of our two bands make for a great event that nobody is gonna want to miss. Being off the road for more than a year because of the pandemic has been tough on everyone in the music industry, and I’m really looking forward to seeing all of the fans happy, healthy and ready to rock.”

Cooper's tour begins Sept. 17 in Atlantic City; Frehley will join the lineup the following night in Gilford, N.H. Frehley will then stay with the tour until Oct. 22, but Cooper will perform one last show with his band at Atlanta’s Shaky Knees Festival on Oct. 23. Tickets will be available on Cooper's website.
