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. |

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.

It is not advisable, James, to venture unsolicited opinions. You should spare yourself the embarrassing discovery of their exact value to your listener.
