    I cannot definitely remember which was the first (it might have been QueensRyche), but right this very moment, I am in my living room listening to my most recent. Sadly, Skid Row has sunk to the level of playing,...campgrounds. There is a small, local campground just across the river from us, and right now Skid Row is playing there as part of a local bike weekend. Sad, sad, sad.

          That's not sad. That's pathetic and funny

            first concert I saw was at six flags st louis in the late 70's. I was there with a church group and didn't even know there was going to be a concert, till we got there that day. but it was the guess who. first concert i paid to go to was in 82 on the cmsu campus and it was cheap trick, killer concert and I would pay to see them again.

              My folks took me to see The Jackson 5 and The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band (w/ a cameo by Bob Hope) at the State Fair when I was five. It was Aug. 22, 1972.

              Later, when I started going to shows with friends, I think it was Quiet Riot and Eric Martin Band back in '84, if I'm not mistaken.

                Julian Lennon at Radio City Music Hall. "Secret Value Of Daydreaming" Tour 1986. Stepped it up at the end of '86 to see Billy Joel at Nassau Coliseum on "The Bridge" tour. Still have all of my concert stubs for all the shows I've seen.
                "When not too many people can see we're all the same
                And because of all their tears,
                Their eyes can't hope to see
                The beauty that surrounds them
                Isn't it a pity".

                - "Isn't It A Pity"
