"Kiss takes the cake. The ludicrous hard rock quartet that appeared Friday at Winterland may be the most crass, most worthless rock band to run through town in years. A blitz of radio promotion and record store give-a-ways preceded Kiss into San Francisco and more than 1,000 curious spectators showed up for the concert... The entire performance was silly (but not funny) and barely worth dignifying by comment"
