What was the first concert you ever went to? Was it a local DIY show? Regular venue? Big arena?

Deep Purple when they had Tommy Bolin replacing Ritchie Blackmore for a while |
|
Mar 19, 2024 13:49 I can't even remember tbh. It was some show with a bunch of small touring punk bands at a local church. There used to be tons of them at churches and community centers in the early-mid 00's here. |

Deleted User Mar 19, 2024 13:56 Candiria at a local skatepark back in 1999 was my first show. Then saw Megadeth and Static X a few months later. |
|
Mar 19, 2024 14:59 Emperor in 1998 at the LA2 in London (the gig was later released as the Emperial Live Ceremony DVD). |
|
Mar 19, 2024 16:00 Wow nice, candiria headlined my first DIY show, but my first concert ever was kidrock & powerman 5000 when I was 12. Static X with Megadeth makes sense for 1999 since that was when Megadeth tried going industrial with "Risk" |

Deleted User Mar 22, 2024 09:56 My first concert was Arctic Monkeys when I was 17 they were brand new then and very unknown, they played in my s**tty home town in a tiny cramped club, I’ve been in love with their music ever since |

Mar 22, 2024 11:04 Ah I hope she reads that in the jokey way I intended it. Each to their own 😂 My step parents dragged me to a Bon Jovi / Nickleback concert as a teen and that literally was the worst. |
|
|
Mar 22, 2024 13:50 My parents just made me listen to lots of The Beach Boys and The Eagles on road trips. I have a nostalgic fondness of sorts for them now, but as a child it felt like torture. |
|
Mar 24, 2024 00:34 Tom Petty during the last dj tour, it was at Rupp arena. |
|
