OK I am embarrased to admit this.. But my first concert was a New Kids on the Block concert with Sweet Sensation back in 1988 I think...


I saw that one too, I knew a promoter and he gave me some tickets on the floor (mistake) I'll see anybody for free.

mine was in North Carolina, you could hardly hear the boys for all of the screaming girls. I have been to MANY shows but never one with that many screaming female fans.

LoveSexy 88!

woot!

it was a nice intro to concerts!


you slut! lol

i shouldn't complain, though, cuz my first show was (i'm hazey on the year...maybe '83) Budwieser SummerFest featuring: beastie boys, fat boys, ll cool j, new edition, and about 10 others. it was an all day thing. except for the beasties, its a bit corny now, but that such a fun show for a 5 year old!


HELLO...the correct word is "WHORE"

anywho...you're lucky I wish I had cheesy early 80s concerts...but my family was a little weird about that (until I hit junior high)

Loverboy, 1983, with Joan Jett opening. Then I think I saw Duran Duran with Starship, and...lemme see, Hall and Oates, and I don't know who opened, but the best was David Bowie, in early 1990's.

I thought I was the oldest person here, but after doing the math, I think you've got me beat.

For me, the Who in Summer, 1968 at a hotel ballroom in upstate New York (I was 15). I walked around and then stood by the speakers for most of the gig - my hearing is still fucked up.
