My opinion:

Should KISS be in for being a great band? No.

Should KISS be in for being a great presence? Absolutely.

Although over the last 15 years their marketing has gone WAY over the top, KISS is still a great brand that obviously resonates with a large demographic. They were my first concert in 1976 in Toledo during the "Destroyer" tour, and that show confirmed that I would be onstage for the rest of my life. 34 years later, I still am.

Are they a great band? No. But do they put on a great show and give their all to the fans onstage every night? Undeniably, yes. Lots of bands, both national and local, could take lessons on showmanship from KISS.

That said, the RRHOF is an absolute joke for not inducting Rush, Cheap Trick, Warren Zevon, and here's a thought...Iron Maiden.

C'mon Kev, who doesn't want a KISS endorsed burial casket? Everyone should spend eternity in a KISS casket.

Technically, Joe, wouldn't it be a KISSket?

[f.sciarrillo]

If anything, Gene Simmons should be inducted into the marketing hall of fame. That man is a marketing genius ..

I don't know. KISS songs never made any sense to me.
For example listen to this one:

That should have been a hit....on the Muppet ShoW.

What about Rush?

While I'm not a fan of Kiss, you can't deny their influence on today's music.

[nakedtwister]

Justin Beiber will probably make it before them.

Teenage Bottlerocket-"Bigger than Kiss"

Detroit couldn't rock itself out of a paper bag
Gene Simmons looks kinda cool
But Paul Stanley kinda looks like a jag
Ace Frehley can play guitar
But he ain't no fucking Kerry King
So get your ass out of the way
Here comes a rock revolution
Listen up cause I'm about to sing
The creatures of the night
Can't hold a candle to this
We'll be kickin' ass we'll be takin' names
When we're bigger than Kiss
I never thought cocaine
Could be as good as this
We'll live our lives in alcoholic bliss
When we're bigger than Kiss
Rock!

Me and Charlie we have it loud
Yeah you know we rock and roll all night
Paul Stanley fell down on stage and broke a hip
Let's hope he's not alright
The ladies don't like old men
Now my love gun is the one in demand
And we're gonna go down in history
As the world's greatest rock 'n' roll band
The creatures of the night
Can't hold a candle to this
We'll be kickin' ass we'll be takin' names
When we're bigger than Kiss
Calling Dr. Love hey geta load of this
Ray beat the piss out of Peter Criss
Now we're bigger than Kiss
