I saw this on another forum. Its a common thing, but I didnt see it here. Hope Im not repeating it. The first live concert I remember was in high school, it was Eddie Peabody playing his banjo. The first real concert I saw was Big Joe Turner, the blues shouter at the National Guard Armory in Spokane, Wn. How about you?

I'm jealous!

Unfortunately I haven't been able to see any concerts thus far, but that will change in the future.

Sad, I'm sure some of the more honest of you can identify with the concerts that epitomized "If You Remember It, You Weren't There". Some of them like Jeff Beck, Bob Seger, Blue Oyster Cult...I remember more clearly what we were drinking than any music...ah youth is wasted on the young

I can relate to that. We saw Merle Haggard one time and got kind of poo-poo faced. I dont remember a lot about it. I asked my wife the next morning if it was a good concert.

My first live concert was Peter Frampton in 1976. Still can't believe that my friends and I waited over eight hours for the concert to start. I'm almost embarrassed to admit that I even went.

First live concert every was for Christina Aguilera's Stripped album. Justin Timberlake performed, and the Black Eyed Peas opened for her. This was all before they hit big with their "Get it Started"

The first live concert I ever went to was Shania Twain. I only knew like 4 songs of hers but I had a really great time. The only thing that stunk was that I had nose bleed seats. I'm really short though, so being up high really helped.
