    here's one to be ashamed of...but i'm not -

    boyz II men w/ montell jordan allentown fair 1995. got dragged there with my sister who was a huge boyz II men fan at the time. i actually enjoyed myself, although the music was kind of lame.

    first actual rock concert was todd rundgren in 1996 i think. don't even remember where it was, i saw two of his shows on that tour.


    :lol::lol::lol: I went to a double header of that show- one night dayton, ohio and one night columbus. I believe my line up also included Jodeci and En Vogue. And I believe I cried. Gotta love those boyz II men -ABCBBD

    Oak Ridge Boys....very early 80s....I was no more than four or five at the time.

    Yep...that's right
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

    I used to see local bands in small clubs in college, but I think the first really big show I saw was R.E.M. in '95 at Southpark Meadows in Austin. Which actually happened to be the day after PJ played there. I missed out on fan club tix to that show and even then I really couldn't find anyone who wanted to go with me and to this day I still regret not going to that show.

    Billy Joel at the Spectrum - I think it was '87 - great show.

    (wait The Hooters played at my high school in 86 - does that count?)

    I actually saw them again last year at a nearby casino. The little lady wanted to go.
    Check out their version of Seven Nation Army :D Good Times!!!

    Edit...and hell...I saw them at the same casino about ten years ago too. Those guys really did do some great stuff back in the day

    Didn't want to admit it, but, my first concert was INXS in 1991. :oops: :?
    My friend's dad had to drop us off and then picked us up later.
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    INXS was awesome. I saw them in '89 I think. They had/have some great songs and Michael Hutchence was amazing :thumbup:
