    This is so sad, but it was Air Supply with my mom in 1987. The first concert on my own was Steve Miller Band at Red Rocks in 1992.

    ETA: I just took my daughter to her first concert last year when she was 10. Madonna MDMA tour. Hopefully she won't be as embarrassed by that as I am with Air Supply. I'm all out of love, I'm so lost without you...

    Unless you count the concerts my parents took me to when I was a kid...this was the first concert I went to on my own with friends.

    This was followed closely by a "rockin" good time at...

    Color Me Badd with my girlfriend at the time. This was not my choice however...this was her birthday present as it was her "favorite"...and one of the worst nights of my life...I didn't even get laid for my efforts...not even a little.

    My parents took me to see The Monkees in 1987 (I think). That was a fun show.

    Lollapalooza #3, 1993, Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, CA. Complete with Rage Against the Machine, Fishbone, Arrested Development, Alice in Chains, Primus... and lots of things a 14 year-old girl and her 2 best friends probably shouldn't have seen. :happy:

    Billy Joel/Elton John...I wanna say 1994 maybe? I was in high school. Definitely wasn't a "party" concert, but oh well. A friends parents treated us.

    My first proper concert was Smashing Pumpkins in 1993, but I went to the Reading Festival earlier that year and saw Bad Brains, Tool, Babes in Toyland and Porno For Pyros. I refuse to count various radio roadshows that I attended in previous years, where every act mimed and the acts were too crap to mention.

    Rush - Way back in '84. We had 3rd row seats. I had listened to Rush before except Tom Sawyer when it came on the radio. My uncle won 3rd row tickets of the radio and took me. Been a huge fan of Rush ever since.
