Your first concert was to see who and when?


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

I saw local bands like MC5, Iguanas (Iggy Pop's first band, my sister dating bass player), Sunday Funnies, Mitch Ryder, others I'm forgetting. This Ann Arbor, junior, high school days, lots of free concerts in the area. First paid big venue concert was Alice Cooper at Cobo Arena, Detroit, friend's mother transported us and attended concert. 

I actually lived in Ann Arbor, we used to take the City bus which came right through our neighborhood to UM campus. We were like 12 when we first started this so I was pretty young during 'summer of love'. So many legendary bands based in A2 and the entire SE Mi area during that time, what a time and place to have one's consciousness raised, I'd never trade if for anything!
