    1989 - Living Color, Guns N Roses, the Rolling Stones @ the LA Coliseum

    I'll never forget that day as long as I live. All three bands were ON that night. It just got better and better as the night wore on. Living Color ripped it up. G'NR was still the original band and completely rocked like no other. And then the Stones came on. They hadn't turned geriatric quite yet and completely tore that place apart. Still one of the best shows I've ever seen. And since it was my first show, my brother treated me to 14th row tickets. After the show my ears rang all night, and the entire next day I was half deaf. Simply unreal.

    Looking California, feeling Minnesota.

    Dromond though, getting to see my all time favorite band who i havent seen since 3/17/92 is my winner. he may have waited, but at least he did it right!

    Sha Na Na at some dinner theater in Cleveland in the late 70s. My parents took me, to a 5 year old Bowser seemed pretty cool at that time.

    Mom took me to see Billy Idol in 5th grade. Next summer saw Motley Crue and Poison with Great White as an opener.

    Warped Tour '99. Getting 40 concerts in 1 for my first experience did not suck.

    Canned Heat at my Catholic high school in 1972. We won some marketing promotion by Carefree Sugarless gum. To say it was surreal would be a huge understatement. (Or maybe it was just the acid. )
    Damn, we're in a tight spot!

    First concert = Quiet Riot opening for ZZ Top
    The last show I saw was Wilco.

    first concert was Queensryche in LaCrosse, WI in 1991

    I think it was the Empire tour, but they played the entire "Operation:Mindcrime" saw Mindcrime again in 1993 in Rochester, MN.
    They also ended up filming the music video for "Jet City Woman" from that show.
