Your first/best concert

[john & jean 37]

REALLY HARD TO CHOOSE, SO MANY AWESOME ONES. GRAND FUNK RAILROAD WAS THE FIRST!

You saw Grand Funk? I didn't think anyone would remember them.

I saw them in 74 ...er maybe it was 76 or 76...those years all seem to 'melt' together

Yeah those years a bit hard to get a clear picture for sure Mark Farner was on a poster in my room for a few years.

[Amy&Aldo 2]

First concert was senior year of high school-1990 in Montgomery, Alabama. Public Enemy, Digital Underground, Heavy D & The Boyz & Queen Latifah. Got in for free and met Chuck D. It was awesome!

Been to a zillion concerts since then. My favorite so far has been James Taylor. He's a classic and always puts on a fantastic show. Would love to see Metallica, Linkin Park and Dave Matthews Band...haven't had the chance yet.

In March I'm going to see MC Hammer and Vanilla Ice...hahaha. It should be a trip!

My first concert was Whitney Houston back in the 80s. I still have the T-shirt that I bought. I also enjoyed Paul McCartney, Bob Dylan, Elton John/Billy Joel, Sheryl Crowe, etc. My favorites are REM and Green Day though.

[dalegg 143]

The first was 1976 Elton John at Madison Square Garden. John Lennon guest appearance.

Best I'd say was Rush 1981 in Los Angeles followed by Depeche Mode in 1988 in Pasadena.

first - Nightranger

best - thats so hard, I am a huge fan of live music, but some of the best have been Beastie Boys, Nirvana, Pixies (3 times), Eric Clapton, Matthew Sweet, Alanis Morrissette at the 2002 winter olympics. Depeche Mode at red rocks. Stevie Ray Vaughn at red rocks. LOTS of reggae shows at red rocks. hahahah just thinking back through all these shows brings back some pretty funny memories. I saw Smashing Pumpkins at a tiny club in Santa Fe, only 200 seats, that was awesome...

aaaah - the good old days

Gwar are great fun, did you get covered in fake blood hahahahaha

I don't think you can't get covered in at least some. I didn't get into the deep of it, but my husband, brother, and brother's friend sure did. It was funny going to White Castle at 2 am, as a party drenched in food dye. The only other people there were two men in business suits with what looked like a 7-8 year old girl dressed in normal street clothes. Whodini was correct. The freaks do come out at night.

[Brad and Vika 129]

First was either Rush or Van Halen in 1980. I can't remember wich one.

[tmma 467]

First concert-Bryan Adams ( along with Poison.) around 1991 Newcastle, England.

Best concert--RUSH ( Vapor Trails Tour) Dallas 2002.

I wore a white T shirt on purpose, luckily I was watching from the side of the satge right next to the guitar rack so not a spot of fake blood got me, fun night
