Do you all remember your first concert

[Steve67]

My first concert was Deep Purple and Buddy Miles . Long time ago, 1971

 

[Lil Foot]

ZZ Top, early '80s. Pretty good, but very smoky.
Second one was Kenny Rodgers, and Sawyer Brown opened for him, and they absolutely blew him off the stage. Still the best concert I've ever been to.
Since then, Todd Snider, John Prine, and Delbert McClinton 3 times.

Queen. I was in 7th grade (1979) at Market Square Arena in Indianapolis, IN,and that concert inspired me to get my record deal in 1988 - and an album in 1990 and a tour with The Moody Blues!

One hit wonder but it paid for my education and will allow me some flexibility to retire a little early! [emoji12]

Here’s the song - went to 6 on Billboard AC chart in 1990. And I bet u never heard it that is how flash in the pan I was! But very grateful for the experience.

Seems there is a few folk out there who remember you as both a musician and as a counselor helping them overcome the same battle you fought. Kudo's sir.

Any of your songs on karaoke labels? I like introducing less heard stuff .... in return for others whom have done same for me at little whole in the wall karaoke joints. (which I rarely do these days)

Better than a pile of shiat to spread lol

First concert was the World Series of Rock at the, (long gone), Cleveland Municipal Stadium. 80,000+ people. August 6, 1977.
Rick Derringer
Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band
Peter Frampton
J Geils Band.

And to answer the question in the title of the thread, no I didn't remember, (all of the bands), I had to look it up.

 

[hodge]

Alabama, early 80's.

 

[sdk1968]

KISS 1974 tour.... my big sister took me in full face paint.. i was 6.

 

[eddiebob]

Humble Pie with Peter Frampton and Steve Marriott.

 

[jmf78]

Cheap Trick opening for STP in the mid to late 90's.

 

[ehenry]

Joe Cocker - 1971 in the Jackson, MS Coliseum

 

[Stmar]

Forget the exact year, '69 '70? Ted Nugent and the Amboy Dukes in Hollywood Florida, I thought "wow, that guy plays a mean guitar". At the same 3 day festival I saw Steppenwolf, Country Joe and the Fish and some others that have gone from my memory.

 

[bikerdib]

It was back in the early 1970s so... No I don't

 

[botaskinner]

My first was Led Zeppelin Houses of the Holy tour, oakland 1973. Joe Coker opened.

Then in no particular order,
Peter Frampton
Journey
Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon, Cow Palace
Robin Trower

And on a lighter note, the Temptations at the Circle Star.

But Wifey has us all beat, Beatles in Memphis, maybe 1965? She couldn't hear them sing with all the screaming.
