What Was Your First Concert?

Gayla · 07-09-2010, 05:43 AM

The first official one? I think it was probably a Willie Nelson picnic in the 70's.

The first one I will claim was Black Sabbath.

miss entycing · 07-09-2010, 06:08 AM

the Summer Strut- Iron Maiden, Scorpions, Foreigner and Loverboy...
it was at Anaheim stadium- and I was 14 if I remember correctly?

Mitmo01 · 07-09-2010, 06:11 AM

My next concert was Sting...Nothing Like the Sun tour and it was much better...

always2late · 07-09-2010, 06:33 AM

I think my first concert was Santana at Jones Beach.....or maybe it was Genesis at Madison Square Garden.

07-09-2010, 06:36 AM

Genesis, 1979, Blackpool ABC

...although the next gig I went to had a far bigger impact, Adam and the Ants, somewhere in Cheshire (I can't remember exactly where). My brother's then girlfriend and I went together and we managed to chat-up the security guard in the 'under 4ft pen' (for the real little kids) and got an unobstructed view totally uncrushed by teenyboppers who were screaming for the band.

The Commodores
Gloria Estafan & The Sound Machine
Bruce Springsteen
Johnny Mathas

These are the ones that come to mind. I have no idea of which came first or second.

Enchantress · 07-09-2010, 07:43 AM

I won tickets to see Rick Springfield, presented by Bill Graham at the Concord Pavilion. I still have the ticket stubs, envelope they came in and my (extra large and glossy) concert book!! I believe I was 11 or 12 at the time!

MsDemeanor · 07-09-2010, 01:19 PM

Procol Harum. The warmup was some up and coming group named the Eagles.

It was held at the Kennedy Center in DC, and my mom took me ("that odd smell is pot, dear"). This is the mom that also used to let me listen to her Black Sabbath albums. Cool mom.

My first concert was at the Aloha stadium in the 76 and it was 2 days of War, America, Bread, Chicago, Boston and Santana, ohhh and Earth wind and fire. Now that was one hell of a concert even with all the beer and other ventures we did during the concert lmao
