My Mother took me to Janis Joplin with Big Brother & the Holding Co.
*side note she was 8 months pregnant with me....(maybe that explains it) ::)

+100 on Rush.

Monsters of Rock Tour 1986 Scorpions, Metallica, Van Halen,

Uh, Pink Floyd Momentary Lapse of Reason, & Delicate Sound of Thunder, (no body throws sound in a stadium like Floyd).

Pat Travers back in the day lit up many smaller venues I frequented. When Snortin Whiskey and Drinkin Cocaine was popular.

+100 on the Iron Maiden Powerslave Tour...still can't remember how I ended up 75 miles away after the show,...

I was a former member of the longhaired, headbangers club.

Loudest concert was AC/DC For Those About To Rock Tour, (it was the cannons, yes real size cannons)

Many, Many ,Many fine memories, and others I should forget, statute of limitations should be up by now.....

Partied at a Carvel Ice Cream Store in Miami with a band called Anthrax, before and after the show,... found a thong in my pocket after that show, but I was young and stupid, and somehow got away with it,.... 8)

Been to Frontier Days a time or 3 in Cheyenne, Wy. Been lucky enough to see George Strait, and got to meet Kicks Brooks and Ronnie Dunn at the adult beverage stand at the rodeo. By far Chris LeDouex has put on the best show &  music at a concert in my humble opinoin. ( I am old enough to remember the Georgia Satellites , I think Peg might have been in the band   ;D)

You bet....... ;)

You'd remember these gems too..... forgot about them playing the 'circuit' of bars in Georgia back in the late 80's -early 90's.

Thanks PegLeg. Zakk is like Billy Gibbons, on steroids... Really like his Black Label Society stuff and of course the days with Ozzy.

The only concert I ever went to was Operation Rock-N-Roll in 1991. It was Judas Priest, Alice Cooper, Motorhead, Dangerous Toys, and Metal Church, one band right after another. Alice Cooper's show was amazing. They were showing a movie and two guys stepped out of the movie screen onto the stage and dragged him back into the movie with them. There was other cool stuff going on too. I should buy the movie of the concert so I can see it again.

Last summer(?) we organized a block party for my neighbor's birthday. Both ends of the street were blocked off and a few bands played right in front of my house. One was really good and the others weren't bad either. I can't remember the names but I should have bought the CD of the best band.

I hear he's playing on Ozzy's newest, soon to be released album.

I saw the Kinks back in high school.  Phenominal show!  Got to be the best I've seen.  Funny thing is an unknown kid named John Cougar opened for the Kinks.  He got booed off the stage.   ;D

In 2000 I went to a clapton concert, the tickets were like $50 for the nose bleeds,   only concert I've ever been too where I got my moneys worth.

I always break all the clay pigeons,  some times its even with lead.

Long time ago a friend of mine was on the entertainment committee at Ferris State University in Big Rapids, MI.  He invited me to a Blue Oyster Cult concert the committee had booked.  The warm up was Bob Seger that they had booked for a relativly small sum.  That was about the time that his Beautiful Loser album with Katmandu was released and climbed the charts along with his fame.  We tried to book him at the college I went to a few month later, but the cost were prohibitive.
