Notes:
- Bob Seger was originally scheduled as the opener, but was replaced by Artful Dodger. A minor riot occurred at this show as fans rushed the entrance for the general admission seating trampling some fellow fans. Musical issues occur at the end of Hotter than Hell and Ace calls someone an asshole during the intro to Black Diamond, making for an entertaining show.
- KISS also received their Canadian platinum award for Destroyer from Quality Records at a reception at Cooly's on Yonge Street after the show...
- From a local review: KISS, its first-rate sound system turned up to the mega-decibel level, its creepy stage setting looking like something out of a Stan Lee gothic horror comic, and it's special effects department working overtime. KISS' show is a collection of disparate elements which, when thrown together, combine to overwhelm you. Guitars explode. Cannons go off. Strands of lights flicker. And there are assorted explosions as the band's four members prance and strut like comic-book ghouls. And does it matter if none of this has anything to do with what the band's singing about? That despite all the gore, the band's lyrics dwell on having a good time and the joys of rock? Not at all. But, then again, in an army, especially the KISS Army, one isn't meant to think. One is meant to take orders (Toronto Star, 9/7/76).
- A clinical SBD recording, with barely any audience to be heard, circulates. However, Rock And Roll All Nite cuts during Ace's solo into an already in-progress Deuce.

CFL 1982: Edmonton at Toronto (part 1)
The Toronto Argonauts defeated the Edmonton Eskimos 30-22 in an August 1982 game at Exhibition Stadium in Toronto. The game was seen as the first solid evidence that the Argos and their new run-and-shoot offence were for real after a decade in the wilderness. The Eskimos were four-time Grey Cup champions (and would go on to win their fifth in a row later that year) and featured the great Warren Moon at quarterback. Toronto was led by quarterback Condredge Holloway, receiver Terry Greer and, in this game, a superb performance by their defensive line.

1983 CFL Eastern Final - Argos vs. Tiger-Cats, Part 1
The Toronto Argonauts edged the Hamilton Tiger-Cats 41-36 in the 1983 Canadian Football League Eastern Final, one of the greatest playoff games in CFL history. The Tiger-Cats got out to a large early lead but the Argos came back late in the fourth quarter, helped by a controversial and highly questionable pass interference penalty. The game featured some great individual efforts by quarterbacks Dieter Brock and Condredge Holloway, running backs Johnny Shepherd and Cedric Minter, and receivers Scott Collie, Rocky DiPietro, Terry Greer, Emmanuel Tolbert and Paul Pearson.
