Who Was Your First Concert?

Who was your first ever concert?

Mine was AC/DC in 1990 at the Met Center in Bloomington, Minnesota when I was in the 7th grade. It was the Razor's Edge tour. I am proud to say that was my first concert ever. Their opener was a band called Love/Hate. They had one single on Headbangers ball back in the day, "Black Out in the Red Room", and pretty much disappeared after that.

Nah, couldn't say in all honesty, but it definitely wasn't there. Either Redding or Sacramento or Eureka or somewhere in between,

Alexisonfire, probably 2005? I was 11 years old, first band I ever really got into besides the dad rock my parents were always playing (which eventually became what I primarily listen to now anyway). It was actually a pretty amazing show, very small venue, very energetic performance. Haven't heard a single song from the band in ~8 years, but I remember the concert quite well.

First stadium show was Slayer / Lamb of God / Mastodon / Children of Bodom, when I was 12.

In early '80s. The Beach Boys with Duane Eddy as opener.
