Your first concert was to see who and when?


I'll kick off with Pink Floyd at The Bay Hotel, Sunderland in February 1969.

Yes, April19,1973 in Atlanta.

I was class rep and arranged the group trip as a junior in HS. I got called on the carpet because a joint was passed down our aisle, upsetting someone's parents. Then I got props for not having let anyone take a toke, telling them just to pass it. I even got an apology from the parents, who had to admit that rubbing it out on the floor would have caused potential trouble. As much as we wanted to take a hit, I was relieved that everyone realized it was a school trip and abstained. As a result, we later were able to attend a Flames hockey game and the premiere of the Exorcist at a 2000 seat movie house.
