My first live act was a Japanese composer/artist whose name i can never spell. The first band i ever had a ticket for live was Nirvana in April 1994. I didn't go and have been pissed off about it ever since. I think the first band i actually saw live was some nonsense like Apes, Pigs and Spacemen

My first REAL show - the eye opening show - was a noise show out in Cincinnati, OH with Robert Inhuman, Being, and SX. I had no clue what the hell noise was, I was so intrigued with everything. It was amazing. Thank god to my boyfriend, his brother's noise, Being, was amazing. He had old TV's with nothing but static in the background and spraypainted words like War, Oil, Bush, Money, etc...all on them. And then he busted the shit out of all of them. It was ridiculously amazing.

I might have missed a few acts, more or less this is it.

Radiohead in Toronto (about 3 hours away) October 2003.. I was 15

Jerry Garcia · 06.16.2006, 10:30 AM

Echo & the Bunnymen, Spring 1986, Montreal

The Church opened. I remember they were so loud the bass made my feet itch.

It was also the first time I saw cocaine as the folks to my right were doing lines all night.

[spunge] at a little festival in Nottingham in 2002 called 'Distortion.' But if you count the headliners it was Green Day.

My first gig at a 'venue' was Goldie Lookin' Chain (ahem)... my first 'rock concert was The Hives

SynthethicalY · 03.27.2007, 03:50 AM

I think we all know each other well enough now.

Um... Cliff Richard in his reli fase around 1977-78.
Let me make it clear that I was a minor at the time, and my parents forced me to go with them.

Not my first, but I saw Run DMC in 1987, supported by Beastie Boys.
