What was your first concert experience?

[alyb]

I say this with absolute disgust, and I blush as I sit here thinking that its true....

NSYNC, 11 1/2 years old... yeah... I know.

But hey, Justin is still around...ummm...if that counts for anything? LOL

"Romeo Void", small club in Seattle. In fact, they are from Seattle.

My first concert experience was Raffi when I was about six. I still have that "Baby Beluga" song stuck in my head.

 

[D.W.B]

Im going to sound like a complete fossil but here goes.

Nazareth and the Stampeders with Humphry and The Dumptrucks in the old Saskatoon Arena.

I was about 14 and it was the first time i ever smoked dope.

It was really a great time until i had to go home baked and face my parents.

I wish I'd thought of that when I saw Raffi.

Supertramp- 1977, the "Even in The Quietest Moments" tour.
First and only time I was ever picked up by a lady. (It only lated a week and a half because it was revenge on her former boyfriend but that's another story......)

Am i correct in assuming it was an incredible concert?

 

[twoblues]

First for me....hmm...I believe it was Holly McNarland at the Town Pump many years ago.

Great concert. Even got to rub shoulders with Bif Naked...okay, we just bumped each other on my way out, but I haven't washed that shoulder yet

Streetheart, hey they were a big deal in Winnipeg almost 30 years ago. In the same era, we used to go and listen to Harlequin(sp?) practice at the CC a couple of blocks from my buddys house.

Tragically Hip

I was 12 and I will never forget it!

Dope and Raffi...

DOPE AND RAFFI--LMFAO

Oh what a combination... just as good, if not better...than dope and Willie Nelson.

(PS: My second concert was the Rolling Stones, so that was quite a change from the dancing boy puppets.)

BTW: Lance was my favorite one and of course he's gotta be gay. Geesh... I sure know how to pick 'em.

My first concert was Simon and Garfunkle when I was 3 years old. I hated the experience. So when I was being hauled off to my second concert, I begged my parents to get a baby sitter (even though I hated baby sitters). I am glad that my parents couldn't get a babysitter. My 2nd concert was David Bowie. Which was phenomenal!!!

I saw Bowie in 83 and phenomenal is a good start in describing it. The only others that can compare have been Stevie Ray Vaughan, Iggy Pop and Eric Clapton.

 

[littlejimbigher]

I seen Doug and the Slugs back in 77 or 78

 

[jjinvan]

Woodstock, when I was a little baby.

 

[LonelyGhost]

Trooper

 

[freebird]

Alice Cooper

Saw him in about 1974. He had fallen off the stage in Vancouver the night before so he only played 4 or 5 songs and then he cut the show short. It was the Welcome to my Nightmare tour. I believe that Suzi Quatro was the opening act.

 

[spirocete]

Showing my age

Sheesh...Herman's Hermits in Winnipeg 1967, The Who and Blues Magoo's played warm up.

I suddenly feel so much younger.

 

[Bare_Facts]

Kim Mitchell, with Alannah Myles in Saskatoon. Going on 20 years ago.

 

[Walk Softly]

Pink Floyd in '87 on the Momentary Lapse Of Reason tour. Wow! tough act to follow.
