    I think my first concert was when I was five or six. My parents took me to see Crystal Gayle at Kings Dominion. So that would have been around 1983 or 1984.

    I went to a lot of home town band's concerts before this, but my first major concert was New Found Glory (With Eisley and Reggie & the Full Effect) in 2004.
