Ok new one ---- what was everyones 1st concert ????

Hate to admit my first concert I went to was Neil Diamond not long after I got married. Couldn't afford those kinda things when I was young. The group I would have loved to see live was the Eagles, they would have to be my all time favorites.

Excellent - He was my second.

Hey i saw the eagles at the old twins stadium and the steve miller band and pablo cruz and joe walsh. IT was awesome i got in for free on that one

Kenny Rodgers was my first.!!!!

Revision

Kenny Rodgers

Ann Murray

I gotta admit though, as much of a big fan as I was at the time,I never got to see KISS in concert.Their big shows of that day were sold out so fast,that I never got a ticket.I know, I know, I really missed out.But I had great fun at Rush,Van Halen-oh the stories I got of the Van Halen shows,Def Lep,Iron Maiden,Judas Priest- I was so close to the Marshall amps/stacks they had, I couldn't hear for three days after the show!

Do you remember the dude with the huge lift kit on the 4x4 truck, that parked it on top of some other guys Mazda RX-7,or maybe it was a 280 ZX? That truck was fricken huge! I laughed for a longtime after seeing that one.If I remember right it was in the NE parking lot, around the arena.I am not making that up,either.I wouldn't have believed it if I didn't see it with my own eyes!

I dont remember that but it was probably some one i knew from the east side we were all rowdy and did alot of crazy stuff like that.

[boatfixer]

My first concert was Barbara Mandrel some time around '77 or '78. My Dad worked for the University of South Dakota at the time and had to film a concert in Pine Ridge SD. I got to tag along. Not only did I get to see the show, but got to meet her on her bus. Now heres the cool part. Speaking of KISS, I had a KISS t-shirt that I wore all the time and she signed it for me. Awesome, uh?

[rockman]

Do you still have the t-shirt? That puppy is a relic of history, if you still have it.Barbara signing a Kiss t-shirt.That is very cool.

[rockman]

Amen, to that,brother. Hunting with the Nuge would be seriously cool,no doubt about it. If I remember it right, Krocus opened up for him, when I saw him.

Hey tami ya still up? I was wondering if you went to portland junior high? You must have unless you went to a private school.

I remember i had a crush on a girl that went to portland jr high that i met later in life and it turned out she was into an alternative lifestyle also and that is why she didn't like me. I think her name was kelly brogdon do you remember her?

[DeeDee]

hey sorry Lisa but I was thinking the same thing

[DeeDee]

37 -

Hey Lisa is the baby here!

First was Ozzy in 85 or 86. All I really remember is my tight leather pants, slutty shirt & lots of make up (wanted to look older). Drank alot, smoked alot, and when my parents were about to give up on me a few years later surprised them on thanksgiving by telling them they were going to be grandparents. Thats when all the drinking and all the smoking stopped and even get a new group of friends. Been a good girl since 88.

[UdeLakeTom]

Does a battle of the bands at Aldrich arena in May of '64 count???

Oh ya, I'll be 61 next month.
