...the Spin doctors my freshman year of high school.  My friend won tickets on the radio.


I used to go to concerts all the time, but I haven't been to one in a year or so.  How depressing!

When I was about 14 or so I went to see Corey Hart.(Canadian singer. Maybe not a household name. Famous for the song "Sunglasses at Night") but the one I prefer to mention is Alice Cooper when I was 17. He put on a fantastic show. I saw him the following year as well, or maybe it was 2 years later. The theatrics were cool. And at one of the shows, Motorhead opened. Gotta love Lemmy.

I went to see Third Eye Blind when I was 18. It was one of those MTV College Invasion tours. I had soooo much fun since I went with a bunch of friends.

my first concert was wu-tang clan (well some of them). i was a junior in high school and went to visit some family in staten island (where wu-tang is from). every year they have park hill day and that year they had a huge concert so i tagged along with my cousins. 


it was actually kind of traumatic. this one group threw tee-shirts into the crowd and everyone went crazy, i almost got trampled. not fun.

i think mine is totally hilarious given the type of music that i normally listened to.  mine was in 7th grade, it was a tuesday night, that happened to be valentine's day.  my friend's mom's bf (got that??) had box tickets to Nine Inch Nails.  since i was young, and it was Nine Inch Nails, and it was a school night, my parents were the only ones who would let me go with her.  i was so much fun because we were in the box and the people watching was totally worth the ticket price.  i was more of a dave matthews or like band kinda girl when i was in 7th grade so i think it's kinda funny (especially when everyone else's was NKOTB).

Ok, I just want to die now. The first concert I went to was this radio station's Christmas concert when I was in 7th grade. I remebered that Hole, Cake, and Soul Coughing played, but I couldn't remember who else. So I Googled it and here was the billing...Cake, Soul Coughing, Ken Stringfellow, Mark Lanagan, Garbage, Elliot Smith, Hole, Cherry Poppin’ Daddies.
I SAW ELLIOT SMITH IN CONCERT AND I HAVE NO MEMORY OF IT!

My mom used to work for Latin NY Magazine, and was a total disco queen, so I went to tons of concerts as a little girl b/c she got comp tickets from work.  I was under 7, I know that for sure, and I also got to meet some of the artists.  Not sure if you guys would recognize the artists, so I won't name-drop :)


My first "grown-up" concert was Guns 'n Roses at MSG, with Soungarden as the opening act.  I was like 15 or 16- it was the Using Your Illusion tour, and it totally confirmed my absolute obsession with Slash!

why was def leppard opening for ratt? (like it should be the other way around?) that's funny and makes me want to do this:

my first concert was new edition in 7th grade. (bobby brown must have been like 12 years old back then.)

In 7th grade (yes...I'm OLD!), my Mom and I went to see The Bee Gees at the Capitol Center (near D.C.) and were in a sky suite. I thought it was just the collest thing!


The first concert I went to on my own was The Cars.

probably hard to believe, but i've actually never been to a *real* concert in my life. i wasn't allowed to go to them when i was young, so i never really got into wanting to go to them. i guess that carried over into adulthood for me!


i did see rusted root perform at my college my freshman year, but i don't count it as a real concert - it was just them singing in our fieldhouse, no lights or anything even! and i got to see the "traveling" U2 concert last year when they were playing on the streets of nyc on a flat bed truck. here's a photo from that -

but other than that, no concerts for me. :(


maddie that concert you went to sounds so great! cake is my favorite band and i *heart* elliott smith. :)
