bush in toledo in 1996 on their sixteen stone tour. the openers were the goo goo dolls and no doubt. it was actually pretty awesome for a first show. bush puts on a solid show and the goo goo dolls didnt suck so badly back then.

Ac/Dc in 1995 i think during their Ballbreaker Tour...great show and it was at the now torn down St. Louis Arena

BinGnarly

MC Hammer, TLC and Boys II Men all in one night I think I was three. So that would be about 1990ish in Detroit.

Mine was the Beach Boys at Six Flags Astroworld- Great show, I was 9 or 10 years old at the time. My parents took me to see Santana when I was young, so that may have been my first... but I don't remember it.

To the person who saw Cat Stevens, I bet that was a kick ass show. No need to be worry about being embarrassed at all... I wish I could see Cat Stevens live... He rocks I don't care what anyone says. Tea for the tillerman is one of the greatest albums ever to reach my ears.

Aerosmith `95 at the Target Center in Mpls.....Jackyl opened

I have to say Jackyl is hands down the worst band I have ever seen. I saw them open for April wine and night Ranger last year. Where they good back then? I am hoping to see Aerosmith with Motley Crue in November. Hopefully, Tom Hamilton will be well enough to join them (He is currently seeking medical treatment for throat cancer).

Zoso

RHCP's at the e-cente in Adelaide 2002 for the By The Way Tour... Will never see them again I can't stand their music anymore esp their newer stuff. Terrible.

Blues Traveller, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam and Neil Young at the CNE in Toronto

Nobody has commented on my first concert - it can't get much better than this (unless you took Blues Traveller off and added somebody good)

anyone else at this show - right before Pearl Jams set thousands of fans stormed from the grand stands onto the floor....it was intense - sooooo much energy in the air that day....it was just before Vs. came out, i'll never forget hearing daughter and rearviewmirror for the first time.

I lived 2 hours east of Toronto at the time and had just turned 16 which meant no drivers licence..my buddy bailed and I wasn't allowed to head to the city by myself and I missed that show..I had a hard time forgiving him ..that line up is amazing..

Was Brad Gillis on lead when you saw the tour???

Yes that is who it was. And he did a fine job of filling in.

Yeah.........he was on lead guitar on the live album Ozzy released of Black Sabbath covers, "Speak of the Devil." So, I know that he sounded great on those tunes.........just never heard him covering the Rhoads stuff.

First concert - Beach Boys - probably around 1982 in Toronto with the parents.

First real concert - 1990 - Metallica, Aerosmith, Black Crowes, and I think Warrant was on the bill! Warrant stole the show, well no they were....Warrant.

awesome!

Yes it was. Only heard the Licensed To Ill stuff from the Beasties but it was still a great show. Run DMC was cool too but surprisingly enough I don't think my dad appreciated it as much as I did.

And I echo the Cat Stevens appreciation. That's pretty legendary, I'm envious as hell....my brother even more so.
