FIRST...I SAW JARS OF CLAY FOR FREE WHILE WORKING AT THE VENUE...AND DAVID GRAY WITH THE "WIFE" AND HER EX WHILE ATTEMMPTING TO NOT CHOKE HIS ASS OUT THE WHOLE TIME.

FIRST CONCERT I PAID FOR AND ENJOYED THOUGH WAS FAMILY VALUES TOUR 2007...KORN SOUNDED LIKE SHIT...BUT ATREYU WERE SPECTACULAR...AND ALI WAS THERE INSIDE HER MOTHER.

LAST...JOAN JETT...THE BLACKHEARTS DIDN'T SHOW FOR SOME REASON...THE TICKETS UNDERSOLD...ANYWAY THEY MOVED THE CONCERT INTO THE GIANT BAR ARENA AT THE INDIAN RESERVATION...I WAS 10 FEET FROM JOAN JETT AND SHE DID A TWO AND A HALF HOUR ACCOUSTIC SET THAT WAS FUCKING INSANE.

YOUR TURN...

My first concert I attended was the Eagles in 1977 in Tucson and my last concert was Tool last year in Salt Lake City. Both were fantastic shows!

THOSE ARE GOOD ONES...I SAW PUSCIFER...THEY WERE SOLID....TOOL WOULD BE BETTER TOUGH.

[–] robocat893 (15918) 6 months ago

I've seen Tool twice. Once in 1997 and last year. They put on a great show that's plain mind blowing! The light show was stunning.

First-Robert Plant.

Sadly, I can't recall the last. It's been a minute for sure.

Will return once I get a clue on that

I HAD YOU IN MIND WHEN I PENNED THIS THREAD...YOUR LOVE OF MUSIC IS LEGEND.

[–] AndyKing1967 (38067) 6 months ago

I’m thinking of starting an ‘Andy’s Music Vault’ series of threads, whereby I post odds and sods from my music library.

[–] Kowalski (75520) 6 months ago

I THINK THAT'S A SUPER IDEA...I DON'T ALWAYS FULLY UNDERSTAND YOUR THREADS AS YOU ARE LIVING IN A DIFFERENT UNIVERSE THAN I....BUT I ALWAYS ENJOY CHECKING THEM OUT.

[–] AndyKing1967 (38067) 6 months ago

Right, I’ll put my thinking cap on.

[–] BeaSouth (3280) 5 months ago

What does “odds and sods” mean? What’s the yankee translation?

[–] AndyKing1967 (38067) 5 months ago

This and that / bits and pieces / odds and ends / bits and bobs (International Andy).

1st - Judy Collins in 1979
Last - Elton John and Billy Joel - pre covid. Unfortunately, nothing since then.

I don't remember but the one I do was Sepultura Biohazard and Pantera. Yep I saw Dimebag and Vinnie Paul in the 90s. Not many can say that.

Signed, million man

ALI WOULD SAY.....jealous!!!!!!!

[–] Mrmojo4700 (21452) 6 months ago

My first was Hank Jr in the late 80s. My most recent was Lords of Acid a few weeks ago, and up next is Clan of Xymox in a couple of weeks.

[–] Kowalski (75520) 6 months ago

OH MAN...I LOVE LORDS OF ACID....I HAD TO LOOK UP THAT LAST BAND.

[–] mtxmind (3296) 6 months ago

First "official" concert was Sha Na Na (& some stand up comic I can't remember the name of opening) at the Circle Star Theatre, Redwood City, CA 1975.

But the first real rock concert I went to was July 1977 at Oakland Coloseum- Peter Frampton, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Santana & the Marshall Tucker Band.

Last concert was in (I think) 1995- Page & Plant (The "Un-Leded" tour) at San Jose Arena (can't remember who opened)

[–] sslssg (34211) 6 months ago

If it counts, I would say that my first concert would have been Raffi. If that doesn't The Beach Boys.

Last Depeche Mode Memento Mori tour

[–] Kowalski (75520) 6 months ago

WOW...THE BEACH BOYS...THAT'S COOL.

[–] BeaSouth (3280) 5 months ago

I’m going to see The Beach Boys in July. If you saw them for your arguable first, was that a long time ago and was Brian Wilson there?
