    2001, saw Lynyrd Skynyrd in Jacksonville when I lived down there. Great show.
    youngster, ever come back to visit?

    Yeah, last time I was there was 2006. I love Jacksonville with a passion. I lived down there for 4 years from 2000-2004 and had a hard time leaving.

    Woah. Would love to be there. How was it?
  • Can't remember which one was first, it was either

    Guns N Roses at Milton Keynes Bowl 1992 or 1993 I think.

    Don't remember much, started drinking way too early and suffered for it! :lol:

    Out of the womb: Duran Duran - 1984 :shock: :? :oops: :mrgreen:

    Just seen yours, should we start battling over who saw them at their best? Was Roger Taylor the best drummer or Sterling Campbell? :lol:

    I was , well I dropped acid :mrgreen: , had the very last row way up high in the arena. It was so cool, I was 15, my first concert experience, Tull music, I mean the Aqualung tour, how could I go wrong? Doesn't get finer for me. It was utterly awesome! A day I would love to return to just for some time.
    Ian had on the long jacket and took to standing on one leg while playing his flute. For years I thought he had a peg leg til I saw him here at Chastain maybe 10-12 years ago. :lol: I was very surprised he had both legs! And in Ian style he blew me away again!



    this 10 years after I saw him in '82 but you get the idea :shock: :D8-)

    Me too! Hartford Meadows '96: Pearl Jam and the Fastbacks. I was 14. The rest, as they say, is history.

    Alternative Nation tour with The Spin Doctors, Soul Asylum, and Screaming Trees. 1992?
    It makes much more sense to live in the present tense.
