The Doors at my high school football field.
The Beatles at Dodger stadium the same week.
Neighbor worked for Capitol Records and got 4 tickets - up front center.
"The Beatles are to cure people of the habit of listening to music"
He hated them and gave us the tickets.
They sound'd good live, even over the screams.
Girls pee'd all over themselves.

July 2nd, 1982...Rose bowl, Aldo Nova opened, followed by Triumph, Blue Oyster Cult with Journey as the head liner....great time. Didnt know what the lighter thing was at the time though. Now that I think back does the little concerts at Magic Mtn. count? Then It would have been Sonny & Cher...It was the 1st weekend that the Mtn. opened up...back in the 70's when they sold beer, large wax cup of draft for $2.00. Them were the daze!

First concert was Sepultura, Pantera and Prong at the San Diego Sports Arena in '94 or '95. Max left Sepultura a year or two later.
I just got back from a trip to Phoenix, saw Soulfly (Max's band) and The Cavalera Conspiracy (Max and Igor's new band)... it's been 10 years since the two brothers have played together... hard to say which show was better.

First concert was Madonna at Anaheim Stadium sometime in the late 80s with chaperones.
First concert out on my own was Porno for Pyros sometime in the late 90s I suppose. I'd have to dig out my ticket stub.
Been to about 60 or so since.

I love live music!
