Candlebox, 1994, Aragon Ballroom, Chicago, IL
Mother tongue opened
I was at this show, too(small world) :wave: Candlebox was awful. Pretty sure they were all drunk. The Flaming Lips played, too, that night.
I was 15 or 16. I was on the rail. I thought candlebox was pretty good. I think they played one of their songs twice. At one point, the singer asked for a lighter or change and people started pelting him. I got a beer to the back of the head! completely forgot about the flaming lips. Damn that was a long time ago.

Lee Greenwood - sometime around Desert Storm era. Not sure on the year. They brought some troops back home while he sang. I was between 9 & 12 I would think.
Went to a bunch of 70's and 80's bands (Motley Crue, Def Leppard, Styx, Journey, etc) with my dad. Lame I know but my dad loves those bands so to have those memories with him is cool.
Then I got to see the light on October 21st 2000 when I saw PJ for the first time.

I had been to local gigs since I was 14, but my first real concert was in 1986, Wayne Hussey´s band that he formed after Sisters of Mercy, I forget their name.
My first PJ concert was their first time abroad too, or so they told me, at the Kool Kat Club in 1992.

Cheap Trick and UFO 1979 - West Palm Beach Auditorium(now known as the Jehovah dome). Front Row, Center stage. Got 10 Rick Nelson picks and had my friends older sisters boobs rubbing against the back of my head and shoulders all night as I shared a chair with her.Good times and a memorable Night for a 13 year olds first real rock n roll experience.
