Your first concert was to see who and when?


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

Black Sabbath’s Heaven and Hell tour (Ronnie James Dio’s first, I believe) at the Jacksonville Coliseum in 1980ish.  I was 15 and somewhat bowled over by the whole thing. 

Wow, these are some amazing time machine fantasies.  I was either not born yet or waaay too young for most of the classic rock ones.

My first was Joan Jett, Ministry, Flock of Seagulls, and The Fixx all opening for The Police, Comisky Park, July 1983.  I remember spending a lot of time trying to avoid pot smoke.  How ironic.
