Tripping Daisy on the fall of '95 at the Metro (in Chicago)...

The first concert I ever went to (when I was a wee lad) was Elvis Presley; sometime in the mid-seventies in Syracuse N.Y. I believe it was 1975, actually.

The Jacksons Victory Tour in 1984...There was no one on teh planet that could touch Michael jackson that year...no one.


I saved my paper route money for months for tickets and ended up getting second row seats in Rich Stadium...It was absolutely amazing.

I don't know how you can fall so far and so hard but in 84...He was the greatest

Since then I have about 100 concerts under my belt

The first three concerts I attended were all with a two-week span or so (and also shows just how diverse my musical tastes are...)
#1 Styx (last leg of the "Great White Hope" tour)
#2 ABBA (their ONLY US tour)
#3 The Kinks (STILL one of the most incredible live shows I've ever attended)

What year? The Kinks were the first concert I saw for an act I still like. I saw KISS in 12/77 but grew to dislike them after I hit puberty and discovered the Beatles. The Kinks in 1/82 were the next band I saw, so for years I thought of them as my "first concert"...

3 Dog Night at the Met Center in Bloomington, MN back in either 85 or 86.

They played their concert after a Minnesota Strikers game (the pro soccer team at the time)

Their stage was setup in the seats at the one of the goal ends. I went with my Dad and a good friend of mine. I was either 13 or 14 years old and I had been introduced to them by my Dad after I got into his record and tape collection.

I don't remember too much about the show itself. I remember they were selling an EP they had just released and my dad didn't want to pay the $15 they wanted for the tape.
