1992 ish? Fugg if I can remember

The earliest celebrity I remember seeing was Little Jimmy Dickens at the county fair in the late 60's. After that was a long spell until Waylon Jennings in about 1983. Saw a bunch in the 90's until about 2010, Last one was Dwight Yoakam and Alan Jackson about 4 years ago..

Nugent and ZZ Top, '77, Cow Palace

First concert was Black Sabbath in 1974-75. I only went because my best friend was a huge Sabbath fan. It was a good concert. The first one that I went to because I liked the band was The Who at the Pontiac Silverdome. That was a GREAT concert!

Jane's addiction. Nov. 17, 1990. I was 18. Memorial gymnasium UVA, Charlottesville VA. Life altering.

After that, Faith no More, Danzig twice, Sound garden, The Ramones all at the Boathouse in Norfolk VA. The cramps, somewhere in Georgetown VA.
Seen Phish and The Dead multiple times, Jimmy buffet in D.C. and in Key West.
Eek-a-mouse in a local bar 3 times as well as burning spear and yellow man.
Bunch of others.

Junior Brown opened for zztop summer 1997.
Awesome show.

Steve Miller sometime in the mid-80’s.

Never forget my first. Opening band, The Crazy World of Arthur Brown, followed by the Jeff Beck Group and the headliner, The Who. What a concert! !968[?] at the Shrine Auditorium L.A. Friggin' great.

Van Halen 1979
it was like 6 bucks

Rochester War Memorial

It was either Iron Butterfly or Black Oak Arkansas around 1970.

They both performed at a small local college gym in the early 70's but I can't remember which was first.

There were lots of 12 hour concerts back then too.

I remember parts of some of them.

Jay and the Americans 1966. Only one I've been to.

Humble Pie 1969 Sam Houston Coliseum best I can remember may not have been first but I remember taking Patti Hanzik

I'd love to see junior brown!

Piano, I was young, I was young, I badly played simple tunes. No fee at the gate, over priced at that.

The Nug!!

Oct 18, 1976, Wings Stadium, Kalamazoo, MI, United States

The Judds with Garth Brooks opening..Eugene Oregon, 80's

Neil Diamond, Pine Knob 70 something, wife went nuts !!!!

I saw Steve Marriott & Humble Pie 09/17/1983 At Harpo's in Detroit. was a great show even without Patti............

Jethro Tull, Sam Houston Collesium, 1979

Something like 1968. I saw The 5th Dimension at the Minnesota State Fair. The first "real" concert I saw at an arena or stadium was Led Zepplin in 1975.
