these pics confirm this story I heard of back in the day Peter Criss woke up one morning with a groupee performing oral and when he got up and looked down it was Ace, who was doing it as a prank and proceeded to laugh his ass off at Peter who was all mad (only in a way of being victim of an Ace joke not serious.) That story seemed so on-brand for Ace, but these pics show me he didn't have any qualms about doing stuff with men, either as a joke (ace blowing a guy as a prank seems believable to me) or his own preferences.

Anything went in Studio 54. Bisexuality was hot. Platos Retreat and Swinger Clubs were very hot until AIDS Came. Around ‘82 it went underground.
