Your first concert was to see who and when?

Jefferson Airplane / Hot Tuna / It's a Beautiful Day

Feb. '70 Anaheim convention Center CA

1st Dead Show 12/28/70 El Monte Legion Stadium LA CA

Jimi Hendrix Massachusetts, Boston Gardens 1970.     Jimi died the 18th of Sept 1970..

Hall and Oates at the Wittenberg University Field House in the mid-70's. Followed shortly afterward by AC/DC opening for Foreigner at Hara Arena in Dayton, followed shortly afterward by Kiss, and then Styx/Kansas (or was it the other way around?). So many bands, and a lot of idle time.

Reading everyone’s first concerts made me think of one thing.  Two amazing concerts I saw were Led Zeppelin’s last tour through the US at the LA Forum with John Bonham and The Who’s last tour through the US with Keith Moon, also at the forum.  Both drummers died soon after those concerts and it just made me think, I must have been the J.D. Vance of drummers!

@sls883  hey I was there too! My mom took me lol. I was 9 or 10. By that time, Kiss had already “jumped the shark”, as the saying goes.  Great memories though. Some guy offered my mom a hit off his joint. I saw a lot of great shows at the Civic Auditorium in the 80s.
