Level -> First concert (12/11/2006 10:59:50 AM)
What was your first concert to see? Any memories of it, lol? Mine was in 1979, I believe, the Pat Travers Band opened (doing new songs like "Crash and Burn", and "Snortin' Whiskey"), and Rainbow headlined. Both bands were terrific, the only glitch coming when Rainbow founder Ritchie Blackmore broke a couple of strings on his guitar, and there was trouble getting things lined out; you could see him getting extremely pissed. Leaving the venue, my ears rang like never before... but I could still hear myself yelling "Oh shit!!" when we got to my car to find my stereo stolen.

It was very awesome, I went with my freshman roommate as a last bash before I graduated. I got a great t-shirt that my mom ruined in the laundry. Since then, thanks mostly to my partner, I've gone to quite a many more and plan to continue.

My partner is an ex-Austinite returned and a huge music guy, so he's been very glad to get back into it. I got him tickets to the ACL Fest as an anniversary gift this past September. They don't get all the best headliners here (ie we got the Stones, Houston got The Who) but it's enough to keep us happy.

My fisrt concert was Jackson Browne's Running on empty tour back in 1977 at the University of Dayton Arena. It was great. Karla Bonoff was the opening act. David Lindley was in the band and he was awesome. It was the only concert I ever attended in my home state.

And it was severely less than impressive. The only other one I have ever been to was RUSH about 3 years ago in PA. Hopefully, moving to Nashville and having a pet that is a music junkie, I will have a chance to see a lot more concerts in the future. DV

1983, David Bowie, the 'Serious Moonlight Tour' at the Montreal Forum the day after my 16th birthday. Two encores ending off with 'Modern Love' which was recorded and issued as the b-side of the studio recording. It was an amazing show. ~stef

Me and a friend gave some thought to going there for the Stones, but money is just too tight right now. Hell, I even passed up a faux Foreigner show here (no Lou Gramm!).

Ya'll have the Ryman Auditorium, where Neil Young shot his "Heart of Gold" concert video.

John Mayall. Turning Point concert, November 1969. I was 14 and the girl I was with was also14, that night we smoked our first joint and indulged in a lot of heavy petting. We both broke our duck on my birthday a little over two months later. Thanks for the memories J.[:)] wherever you are now.
