Former Kiss star Ace Frehley has banned alcohol and drugs from his forthcoming tour - so he won't give in to temptation. The guitarist - a recovering alcoholic and drug user - insists employing clean-living staff on his live solo dates in the U.S and Canada will help him to avoid any intoxicating substances.

He says, "This time around, I'm real serious about my sobriety. I've surrounded myself with sober people, so it's really not that tough. It's very comfortable for me at this point; I just hope I can maintain it. I believe I can, but one day at a time, right?"
