A fan named Lucas responded to Gene:

“Love it! The first band I ever saw 21 years ago. No one could take the smile off my face that night with anything.”

Another fan named John said:

“I was five years old in 73 and by 78 my entire room ceiling and closet was completely covered with KISS posters even the life size ones of the four of you, listening to our records of you head banging around my room with my air guitar and not a care in the world, the good ol days”
