Your First Concert was.....

Van Halen ont he 1984 tour when DLR was still in the band at Madison Square Garden. We scored 11th row center on the floor. I think I was fifteen at the time and it still ranks as the most fun I ever had at a concert.

Dizzy Gillespie, Philadelphia, 1978.

Grateful Dead, April 1972, Alfred University - Alfred, NY

I saw my first Dead show in 72. Roosevelt Stadium, Jersey City NJ

I saw Steppenwolf at The Grande Ballroom in 1968 and the drummer was so high he fell backwards off his stool. As he fell he was still swinging his sticks.

Saw Hendrix in '68 at, I'm pretty sure, Detroit's Masonic Auditorium. His amps kept picking up a talk show from a local AM station, WJR. I thought it was part of the show.
