I've went to concerts with my parents, but.. I'm going to my first concert by myself soon. April 2nd, Death From Above 1979. I am so damn pumped.
 
Tragically Hip at Copps Colliseum in Hamilton, went with my dad when I was like 12 or 13

First big concert I went to with a friend was Age of Electric, Veruca Salt and Bush at Maple Leaf Gardens when I was 13

Rush Vapor Trails Tour, October '02...the same gig where a portion of a Trailer Park Boys episode was taped. Just a fantastic concert.

My first concert was last year when I went and seen PJ Harvey. Damn that was such an awesome experience to, didn't know it would sound that good and the vibe from the band was too good.
 

Ford Prefect

GAAAAAAAAY
I'm proud to say that the first concert I ever went to was B.B. King with me pops.

First on my own was Weezer.

Both were awesome.

INXS...Kick Tour. It must've been '88, maybe '89.

Pretty good show. The stage had quarter-pipes and one of the guitarists skateboarded during the show.....wow that sounds lame now...

Second show....Metallica, and justice for all. Which is still the best arena show I've been to.

My first concert was The Eagles/Steve Miller Band/Eddie Money at Riverfront Stadium. I think it was the summer of 1977, but I'm a little fuzzy since it was 27 or so years ago.

Last year's Rush 30th Anniversary concert is still the all time greatest concert I have gone to... just amazing. the visual display that accompanied Subdivisions was just breathtaking.

My first concert was Kiss back in '77, but I don't remember it because I was 1. I still have the backstage pass though....

The first concert I went to by myself was the Rush - Roll The Bones tour at Riverfront Coliseum in 91. Great show.
 
Electric Six December 2003. They were pretty good. Would have been slipknot like a year b4 but I wasn't listening to them anymore by then ;p
 
First concert I ever went to was the Angermanagement Tour with X-zibit, Papa Roach, Xecutioners, Ludacris, and Eminem. It was pretty cool, outdoors and all you can smell was weed in the air. I can only imagine an Up in Smoke concert.

first concert- dont laugh, but the teenage mutant ninja turtles -coming out of our shells tour
:D

I am embarrased to say I went to that too. I even ran up to be on camera with April. I wish I could slap my young dork self.

Bush was my first real concert.
 
never been to one and dont plan to either.
if its not an MTV unplugged sort of thing where you can sit down and just enjoy the music with a selected crowed

Indeed...went to that last year as well. I think the Rio tour had more visuals, but the video they did play last year was probably even funnier, and arguably more effective (the bobblehead skit left me in stiches). And the fire breathing dragon during "One Little Victory" (one of my favourite Rush songs) was on both tours.
 
July of 88.....Judas Priest with Cinderella opening on the Ram It Down tour. Which was topped only by Judas Priest with Megadeth on the Painkiller tour in January of 91.

Powerman 5000, Dope, Static-X

February 2000

i saw that tour when it rolled through NYC. roseland ballroom. cold and raining, standing in the NYC streets. free condoms. my very first (of last count, 13) Dope show. Static-X also rocked hard. i remember being unimpressed by PM5K.

my first show though would happen the year before...

Marilyn Manson/Monster Manget/Nashville Pussy
4/4/99
easter fucking sunday.
 
1st concert-Pantera/Slayer/Morbid Angel

The people around me that night were quite the shock to my naive little mind. But then again, I was listening to that type of music so I should have expected it.
