Your First Concert was.....

Joe, I wouldn't say "needless to say"--when I saw the Doors the band was great but Morrison was not very good. He spent a lot of time under (yes, under) the stage babbling into the mic while the other guys cooked away.

The Kinks in 1983 at the Boston Garden

Quicksilver Messenger Service, It's a Beautiful Day, Ace Of Cups at the Avalon Ballroom, San Francisco in the late sixties maybe 1968?

Heart , at US 131 Martin drag strip Michigan in the mid 70's . They were parking miles away from the entrance and along the highway . The county mounted police were having those cars hauled away ! I made it in and all the way down to the finish line of the drag strip to park . My wife , 3 days after knee surgery , hobbled all the way down to the start line/bandstand area on crutches ! We found a nice place to sit and I gave her all of the pain killer that she wanted ! Truly splendor in the grass ! I carried her back to the car when it was over . Oh to be young and dumb again !!!

Happy Tunes

Not mine, but my 14 year old son.
Kansas concert. Met Robby Steinhardt (violin) at a friend's house, he went to sound check with him. Backstage pass, 3rd row seats, more backstage, and partied with the band at friends house after.

Now that's an introduction to rock and roll!
