    Have to admit it was after I was an adult and had kids. I went to see George Strait and Tanya Tucker at the Tulsa State Fair...WAY back when. LOL The same year, I went to see Huey Lewis and the News, also in Tulsa. hahaha

    Edited to add: Oops, I just remembered years before that hubby and I went to see Sonny and Cher in concert. Yep, I'm pretty old. haha
    I got you babe.

    ELO at the Milwaukee auditorium in 1974 or 75 Greatest show ever they had laser beams moving all throughout and the string players had mirrors on their instruments that would reflect the beams in all kinds of weird directions...as a side note I found a pot pipe on the floor when the concert ended and I thought it was part of a bow from the string players.I took it outside and realized what it was and threw it in the trash cause I was crapping myself!!

    Sammy Hagar, 2007ish.

    Mine was also Sammy Haggar. I think I was 14 and it was with my mom, sister, and sister's husband. I don't know if it counts if you go with your parents, lol.

    Sammy wasn't my first concert but I saw him when he opened for Boston back in the late 70's. No one knew who he was, but he stole the show.

    My first concert was Cheap Trick... a little bar in the middle of nowhere managed to book them just before they broke nationally. Incredible!

    Growing up with a Southern Baptist preacher for a father, I lived a pretty sheltered life, so that concert was quite an amazing experience! I later saw Van Halen and Loverboy in 1984. They were great too. Loverboy had an awesome laser show.
    I would love to go to some concerts now, but the tickets are so dang expensive, and my body probably couldn't handle it now. lol. I got old!
