First concert you attended?

Bob Seger and I think I was a Senior in highschool and got the tickets as a Christmas present. He was great and the cops that caught us drinking in the parking lot just made us pour out our beer...even after I gave them a fake ID.

12 or so.
Then Weenie Roast 5 was the first concert I remember having fun at.
Phil & Friends with ABB during the summer 2001 tour (maybe 2002) in Charlotte is what got me hooked on live music. Also, I got black out drunk and apparently had a great time. DONT SMOKE DRUGS AND DRINK A FIFTH OF GOLDSCHLAGER

I think I was around 10 or so?? (google points to fall of 1989...) My younger sister was a HUGE fan at the age of 7, and my cousin's very very very rich husband (owned one of the luxury boxes @ Giants Stadium...almost BOUGHT the meadlowlands several years later) gave my family a bunch of tickets...I F'n hated them, but I'd never been to a concert, so I tagged along.
I still have nightmares.

Not rapping anymore and lived in Lancaster his whole life. He was part of a duo that were actually not bad (1 album released) but just didn't work out. He lived in NYC for a while and got to meet Run DMC, Beastie Boys, Fat Boys etc. He sent me several pairs of high tops that had formerly been worn by one or all of the Fat Boys. I rocked them proudly.
