What was the first big concert you went too? And your last one?

My first one was when I was 10 and my 16 year old sister won tickets on the radio last second for the Cars and my last one was U2 and the black eyed peas in Vegas..

The Who in 1980 at the Kingdome in Seattle. Took the bus with my juvenile delinqint idiot friend, arrived near the parking lot scared out of my mind. Thought for sure that was my last day on earth after seeing the enormity of that sweaty insane crowd. Everybody was either drunk, stoned, hallucinating or all three.. Music was incredible and I didn't get pummeled or trampled.

From that point forward I found out that you can buy a ticket with a seat assignment printed on it.

I'll bet Mugg was there.

Rick James 1981 Universal Amphitheatre, Cool and the Gang Vegas 2013 ( heard they were there walked in 1/2 way through the show , front row with  lot of old fat  broads  .

This thread is gonna get real funny, real fast.

Offspring was the first in '98 and last one was coachella in '09. I was a bartender at House of Blues for some of the concerts and they just lost the appeal to actually go to any.

Led Zeppelin - 1971 (Madison Square Garden, NYC)

John Fogerty - 2015 (See my write-up in the Music Forum)

Led Zeppelin - 1971 (Madison Square Garden, NYC)

Whoooaaa.

#1 Bucket. You got it.

1973 or so Black Oak Arkansas/Black Sabbath.Convention Hall Asbury Park NJ..Sweated the fact about first time holding/smoking weed.

Don't remember the last one..could have been Santana at the GardenState Arts Center late 80's or Tears for Fears at the Meadowland Brenden Byrne arena back then.Moved to FL in 92 and lost any motivation to see any shows except the BOC and no one to go with even locally at some club..

Joepa -Cars were cool..saw them back to back NJ/Philly Spectrum couple days with AC gambling in between..few hours sleep in the car here and there.

Going to LV in Sept and  the BOC are playing on Freemont just a couple days before I get there..S**T

Two weeks before my 16th birthday.  Glad I was not on the floor because there was a partial collapse of the stage.  Crazy crowd. 

James: Santana in the late 80's

C'mon get back into the game.  Rock & Roll never forgets!!!

Goose cool garbage..Always missed LedZep and the Dead for some reason or another but didn't miss any Pink Floyd or Zappa..

Saw the Stones at MSG summer 1975..only concert I've ever been to where it was like an event where a lot of people were dressed up nice and not usual..opposite I'd say the Ramones/Patti Smith concert same summer or so in AsburyPark..haha

  Nope, didn't see that one.

 The very 1st show I ever saw was...............The Osmonds!   Nassau Coliseum back in the early 70's. My older sisters wanted to go & the folks made them take me with them.

 First real big show was Led Zeppelin @ the Kingdome 1977. I was a frosh in HS & had no idea what I was getting into........unfortunately it sounded pretty bad.

 My last show shouldve been The Allmans but we ended up bagging it, so it would be "Flight to Mars", a UFO tribute band Mike McCready put together to play one show a year @ the Showbox in Seattle. This year Duff McKagens band opened for him........great show (should've been there MaineR).
 But I've got Rush tix for 7/19 @ the Key.......then Tragically Hip in Sept., so my "last show" list is always temporary........I like to rock.  

First Concert - I saw Depeche Mode with my older sister back in the mid-80's at "The Fabulous Forum". I was a young punk and all into hard metal at that age, and went in with a puss on about it, but she had a car, and it was a Saturday Night away from home...... So....... But.......

Honestly.......

They put on a pretty decent show. I remember lots of effects and lazers, lights and colors...... Pretty "ahead of it's time"......

First concert ....sometime in the early 70's..my foggy years ..Alice Cooper concert ..two fine chicks my buddy and I had just met wanted to see the show..my pal had the tickets and all the good stuff needed to get into a real good mood..can only remember,, that the music was good and Alice Cooper doing something with a boa constrictor while it was hugging him ..something with what looked like blood all over the place and in the grand finale hanging himself from a scaffold ..

It was a little more than the girls had bargained for.. so it was a real downer and a strike out with the lassies later that night..

Last concert attended ..that Alice Cooper concert..

backstreet boys . it was great. 

Mugg saw the Osmonds. Then hits Zeppelin.

Classic.

1.Simon and Garfunkel-Radio City-1969?
2.Eagles--Hell Freezes Over Tour-1995?

King Crimson around 1974

First concert ever was Beach Boys...

don't remember if the first one i ever saw was Alabama with my dad or Styx with my friends.  probably Styx because if Alabama was my first concert, i probably never would have gone back. 

saw Band of Horses a couple of years ago.

  Really looking forward to it........rumor has it that this is it for them.........last tour.

Grateful Dead.

1974-Saw Edgar Winter Group (Frankenstein), with Rick Derringer on lead guitar. While waiting to get into the Oakland Mausoleum, the tour bus with the opening act drove in..............Bad Company!
