Motley Crue's Dr. Feelgood tour in '89

I gotta have the most embarassing one...

MC Hammer

I think it was in '92 or something, I was like 10 or 11 (didnt know any better)

My first REAL concert (that I bought tickets to) was Tom Petty in I think '95.

IRON MAIDEN "World Slavery Tour" 1983-84
Twisted Sister was the opening band.

For me it was the Monkees in 1986

Early 80's

Molly Hatchet (oh god) opening for

April Wine

Well, if you don't count the Osmonds or Sonny/Cher at a state fair when I was a kid... I'll saw Bob Seger in 1980. Today, that makes me think, "Icky."

KISS was it for me: I was 10 years old in December 1977. AC/DC opened - we booed 'em...

Cool... Irvine sounds like a good possibility for me this year. Saw them in Oakland many years ago.

My first concert was Blue Öyster Cult back in the 70's.

The Who in summer of 89. Stevie Ray Vaughn opened I think.

Guns N' Roses, April 6, 1992, Myriad Arena, Oklahoma City.

Smashing Pumpkins, virtually an unknown band at the time (at least in Oklahoma, and compared to GN'R), opened for GN'R and were booed off the stage maybe 20-25 minutes into their set.

Cream Farewell Tour 1969. My ears are still ringing.

Billy Joel at Aloha Stadium in '87.

Front row, center. Still one of my favorite concert experiences ever. :)
