    I went to the Milwaukee Summerfest in '95 to try to score tix but they were all sold out :( Of course there were scalpers selling tix but at 14 I had a very limited budget :lol: I'll never forget sitting outside those fences, near tears, watching all the lucky people walk in! My next chance and my first time seeing PJ live was at Alpine in '98, I was 17. It's all coming full circle!

    I really feel you there! I had to win mine off the radio.
    Apparently, 13- 14 year old kids can't rock out in '95

    Interesting question, I like reading the variation in years old and years of first concerts. Cool.

    For me, I was 18. 1993 shortly after Vs. came out. Tickets were CHEEEEEEEEAAAP!
    Just looked at my stub. $25.50 in 1993.

    41. MSG 9-10-98. The day BEFORE they finally played breath. My first 10 club seats - 2nd. row on the isle Stone's side. Wow. I learned from that experience how important it was to go to every show when they play our area - you never know what you're going to get. That show gets overshadowed by the breath show but for me was totally awesome.
    The wisdom that the old can't give away

    How I choose to feel is how I am

    I was 17. It was Cork, Ireland 1996 and I was to see the band twice in the space of a few days as they played Dublin two nights afterwards. 16 old Irish pounds for the ticket!
