First concert?

Sorry if this was asked before and I'm too lazy to search. I was reading through this thread when UB dropped the name "Head East". http://www.golfhos.com/to...g97748;topicseen#msg97748What was your first concert? Mine was Head East in Rochester MN. Probably 6000 people packed into little Mayo Civic Auditorium. Thought it was the coolest thing ever. |

Ozzy, 1981-82? Cow Palace in SF
Also saw the Stones @ Candlestick the same year, but I can't remember which was first.

As a pre-teen my parents dragged my brother and I to see Sting in Bonner Springs, KS at the outdoor ampitheatre. Stuart Copeland was on drums too. I really enjoyed them.
However, Lyle *goshdarn* Lovett opened and he sucked balls.
