    My 1st concert was Korn.. I don't even know what I was thinking. I don't even listen to anything close to that kind of music. Rarely did then & I don't at all now. My best friend's did (still do).. I went with them.

    mid-80s - RUSH! Slept out for concert tickets... back when that was they way to do it if you wanted front row. Loved every minute of that concert!

    I've seen them about 15 times - new album coming out next month, hopefully followed by another tour!

    Hell Yeah! I am looking forward to the new album and seeing them for the 5th time!

    Rush is the only major rock band that ive loved, wanted to see and havent seen.


    Also, Philly ppl are really representing on this thread.

    Go Phillies

    Let's see if i can remember the year, I was in the 6th grade, so maybe 89 or 90. I spent the night out side of Ticketmaster to get a New Kids on the Block Ticket. Then a few weeks later my mom dropped me off at the Kingdome and I saw them...alone.
    Soon after that I discovered punk rock and never looked back.



    Ah, yes the Kingdome!

    Here's an old slide I found (Dad took) when it was under construction

    I saw my first concert there as well. RUSH! In the mid 80's.
    I've seen them about 6 times since then. I always look forward
    to Neil's Drum solo... :tongue:




    *edit* Forgot to quote. :tongue:

    I very much doubt he's heard of in the US, but mine was Gareth Gates * embarrassed*
    It was 2003 I think.

    1987 INXS and Ziggy Marley at CNE in Toronto. I was 14.

    I saw them on that tour when they came to Philly, what a great show. That Inxs record was great. KICK
