Being a life-long KISS fan, I recognized that this was wrong right away. It was Dec 12th, 1976, concert was in Lakeland, Florida. The reason that I remember it being the 12th of December is that it was 5 days after Pearl Harbor Day, while on tour supporting Rock and Roll Over, their 5th album (don't ask me why I remember it that way, I just do)
The incident 'inspired' Ace to write and record his first lead vocals for KISS on their next album, Love Gun. The song? Shock Me
