Your First Concert was.....

My first concert was at Valparaiso University. We saw Black Oak Arkansas and Brownsville Station (no comments please) but the next week we saw Edgar Winter. We use to see Styx alot at the Hammond Civic Center for $2.00 when there was nothing else to do.

Yes-Madison Square Garden 1974, Relayer tour. I'm not quite sure that show was ever surpassed in 34 years of concert going. I was not yet 15 years old. The Roger Dean stage set-up was surreal.

Drubin, I made a mistake. I was thinking of the Blues Magoos. A NYC band from the same era.

SAXON 1982 Birmingham Odeon, U.K. 'Eagle has Landed Tour' 12 years old at the time. Excellent gig!!

Beach Boys mid sixties in Cleveland- Glen Campbell was touring with them and sang the high parts. The Lovin' Spoonful was the warm up band. The Beatles in 1966 may have been the same year or a year later. The best early concert, however, was Genesis Selling England by the Pound concert at an old, beautiful movie theater downtown Cleveland, tenth row center-probably not more than 500-1000 people there. They were using SAE amps! Killer concert-early 70's.
