Title: What was your first concert?
Post by: Human Snorenado on November 26, 2011, 12:16:47 AM
Mine was The Dead Milkmen and Mojo Nixon- I was 13 at the time and my dad took me.  Mojo forced his piano player to mock-sodomize an inflatable sheep after the guy started to play "The End of the Innocence" by Don Henley.  This probably explains a lot about me.

Discuss.

First concert, probably some local band at this venue I used to work at.  You probably haven't heard of them.  (No, really.)

First bigger concert, Reel Big Fish, Streetlight Manifesto, and Less Than Jake.  At the time I didn't know who LTJ was, so I didn't stick around to listen.  I kick myself for this now.

Some local straight-edge hardcore show, I'm sure; terrible bands, but fun as hell.  The first in a venue that doesn't include gymnasiums, warehouses or recreation centers was Nine Inch Nails; probably about 16 years old or so.

my first that i cared about was a festival set up by the local alternative rock station back in 93; my mom loved that shit and got me into it.  the lineup was:

Matthew Sweet
They Might Be Giants
Hothouse Flowers
Aimee Mann
Midnight Oil
Dramarama

as far as first show i saw on my own, i'm sure it was some crappy local punk band

My first concert was Laurie Anderson, on her Mister Heartbreak tour. I didn't know what to expect; my friend was a hardcore fan of hers, and I said, "What would you do if she came out and did stand-up comedy for an hour?" He said he'd probably enjoy it.

As it turns out, she came out and did spoken word for the first half-hour, and it was pretty damned funny.

Michael Jackson when I was pretty young.
I hope he was gentle with you.  :-*

KROQ Weenie Roast 99. Headliners were Metallica and the Red Hot Chili Peppers, but they only played around 12 songs each.
You're from L.A.? I never would have guessed.

Is "only 12 songs" some form of sarcasm?

Hartford, CT, opening night of the tour. Bowie played mostly shit off of Outside like t he rest of the tour, but since it had yet to have been released at that point everyone was kind of unsure of what to think for most of his set.

I think a Bob Dylan concert I went to a few years ago. I'm not really much of a concert goer.

I did however do something dumb in a woolworths store once which is probably the closest i've came to ruining my life.

but that's another story.

You can't tease a tale like that and just walk away from it. 

It's a rule.

Story time!

First concert I was ever at was a sponsored event charity concert by Montgomery Gentry.
The first concert I ever actually paid to attend was the Disturbed/Avenged Sevenfold/Stone Sour/Halestorm concert in Atlanta. I took my girlfriend to see it as a birthday gift.

prime time to see them, I bet.  Their best albums all out with no stinkers, thus tons of great material.
