Well if I don't count the free concerts at the county fair (I remember seeing Johnny Cash) I would say that my 1st would have been Alice Cooper "Trash tour" in 1990.
Then: Kiss - Hot in the shade, Billy Idol - Charmed life (3rd row with 2 hot chicks I was friends with) Those were were my 1st 3 after that I kinda lost track, went to alot between 1995- 2000.
AC/DC with Love Hate opening.

[QUOTE=CougarXR7;459787]My first concert - Waysted opened up for Iron Maiden on the Somewhere In Time tour. This was back in 1987. I was 17 and a senior in high school. There were several concerts that I wanted to go to prior to this one, specifically Metallica opening for Ozzy, but my mother was very protective of me. Now that I have kids of my own, I can understand where she was coming from.

Can't believe Waysted showed up here,under rated band. If you like U.F.O. look them up.
My first was AC/DC at Cleveland Public Hall, early 80's with Brian Johnson. First tour without Bon, Back in Black. Can't remember who opened though:cursing:
Josh, I saw the Hot in Shade tour in Hershey. I would have seen it twice, once outside at Cith Island and once inside at the Hershepark Arena, but had a bit of bad luck with a fifth of Jack Daniels and missed the outdoor show. Long story short I got a little bloody hopping a train to City Island and a little muddy jumping of the walking bridge into a tree, missing(mostly) and falling in the river trying to get away from the cops since I could barely walk straight. Good news - I made it back to my buddy's house to sleep it off safely, bad news - I had backstage passes because the girl I was dating at the time worked at a record store and I never got in the show.
JR Prowler, I still have some of those AC/DC bucks that fell from the ceiling from the AC/DC Love Hate show in Philly. I got hit buy a POS '76 tan Chevy Nova in the parking lot which ironicly pinned my leg between that and the only other POS '76 tan Chevy Nove 4 door in the state.
It still amazes me I am still alive sometimes.....
8/6/1977 World Series of Rock. Cleveland Stadium. Frampton-Seger-J. Geils and Rick Derringer. There were few things that could match a stadium concert in the 70's.
I just got tickets to see someone I've wanted to see for years but never got around to it. Gordon Lightfoot. 5th row. I figured I better do it before I no longer have the chance.
