    the allman brothers at st. john's university. probably 1977 or 1978. endless drum solos. ugh.

    i used to save concert ticket stubs in a wallet back in those days, so i lost the stub from that and my next few concerts when i lost my wallet, but have every ticket stub since then.
    you paid to get in, you're free to leave.

    Man, i guess i'm not the only dumb one, as i did the same thing(had my ticket stubs in my wallet ONLY to lose it too)> :lol: Only frickin' wallet i ever lost too.I lost my first few stubs, but i don't remember how many i had in ther. Ever since then, as soon as i get home i put my ticket stub in a SAFE place.

    First concert was The Cars in 1979.

    Finsbury Park, London, June 1993

    Neil Young, Pearl Jam, James, Teenage Fanclub, and 4 Non Blondes.

    So technically the first band I saw live was 4 Non Blondes but it sounds better if I list the bands in reverse order with Neil first! :D

    In Boston 1974 it would have been Sly & The Family Stones and James Brown at a festival but a riot broke out and the shows were cancelled.

    So in the summer 1978 I saw the Isley Brothers with Teddy Pendergrass opening for them at a sold out Capital Centre Landover MD. This was all through our recreation department and two weeks later I saw KISS, my awakening to rock music.....what an awakening it was.
