Ok- we got through "intro music".

So, staying in the music theme for a bit- what was the very first concert you went to that you WANTED to go to? How old were you?

Mine- Ozzy Osbourne Crazy Train, circa 1981. I was a freshman in HS

It was freakin awesome!

Mine was My Chemical Romance! It was about a decade ago, and I was also a freshman in highschool. My favorite band, with my two best friends. It was a really freaking awesome experience.

My firsts concerts were the summer of 1983 and I saw two concerts in a week, can't remember which was first. One was The Tubes, and the other was David Gilmour of Pink Floyd!

A Flock of Seagulls, The Fixx and The Police - Sullivan Stadium - Summer 1983 (now Gillette Stadium). Tailgating before and after!! :-)

King George! George Strait when I was about 17 in 1985? Nothing too wild and crazy, lol. Those came later. I also have very diverse musical taste, so I have seen everyone from Elton John (GREAT concert) to Metallica (another great concert).

Interestingly enough, I don't like country music anymore. Just the old stuff. But George is still awesome.

I loved all of those bands! (still do )

I got to go see buffalo Springfield ( youngsters might have to google it) at a local junior college in 1967. I remember I wore an A line skirt I made in 4-H..

I am showing my age!

I should add that I had a semi-flock of seagulls hairdo at the time! :-)

My parents had me completely frightened of going to a concert (the news reports of The Who concert trampling in '79 didn't help), so I got a late start. The first concert I went to was because a friend begged me to go with her and it was Madonna. That quelled my fears.

The first concert I can remember wanting to go to was probably Eric Johnson (HUGE crush!), and I was probably in my mid 20's.

Alanis Morrisette when I was 22

That's the year I was born

Bon Jovi 1986, I was 12 ☺

Nowadays anything from Katy Perry to Suicidal Tendencies to Black Sabbath and Anastacia, seen them all!

David Bowie in 87 with Squeeze at Giant Stadium.

Lisa Lisa and the Cult Jam opened for them. WTF?

It made no sense then... And I haven't figured it out since.

I LOVE Squeeze!!

And I love Erasure, too lol. That was a requisite college listen for me.

It's funny - I was just talking about this with my girlfriend and though David Bowie/Squeeze was my first concert in a major venue - I vaguely recall seeing Siouxsie and the Banshees and The Smiths in the early 80s.

The 80s are kind of a blur.
