darin3 Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 With a few good music-based threads out there, and taz's post in the Cash thread, figured this would be a good one to toss out to the fishes... What was your first concert? I'll go first, and pardon me while I put on the Paula Abdul and Color Me Badd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Square Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 (edited) First real concert was probably Dave Mathews Band. Still like seeing them when they come to town. Of course back then, you could get day of tickets for 20 bucks. Not so much anymore... Edited July 17, 2011 by Square Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whoopazz Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 Had the pleasure of growing up near Saratoga Performing arts Center, great place. We could get lawn passes for $3. I think my first was America and J Browne in 72. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
