October 21, 201015 yr I lived a pretty sheltered life growing up... Mom would never let me travel anywhere for a concert. So I didn't get to go to one until they built the Expo Center in Pikeville. Therefore, my first concert was Three Doors Down/Shinedown. The best part of that concert was the opening act: Illbreak. They've since split up, but they're the only band from that night I still listen to with any regularity. Their singer, Gareth Asher, is now a solo artist and probably my personal favorite singer-songwriter. He's released three albums, and while he doesn't do anything overly groundbreaking, he's got a good voice and makes catchy music. What else can you ask? So were Shinedown/Three Doors down worth the price of admission? Probably not. Was Illbreak worth it? Absolutely.
October 21, 201015 yr :lol: I got tear gassed at my first concert. 1996 Jammin' on Main in Cincinnati. Went to see Seven Mary Three. I knew things were gonna get dicey when I saw one of those big metal bike-rack-looking crowd barriers go sailing through the air. Moral of the story: Don't go to concerts featuring low-rent Pearl Jam knock-offs. I was at the festival that day, but had something else going on that night so I left well in advance of that craziness.
October 21, 201015 yr Jan 6th 1983 Cincinnati Gardens Iron Maiden w/ Twisted Sister UP THE IRONS So that's when you started wearing makeup...lol
October 22, 201015 yr KISS/Aerosmith. Dont remember the year but it was at Riverbend and a dang good concert. I was at that concert.:thumb:
October 28, 201015 yr Saw Rush the first time on the Hemispheres tour. I've seen them four more times since. My favorite live band.
October 28, 201015 yr The first one I went to (Anne Murray at the Ohio State Fair) is nowhere near as cool as the first one I actually paid my own money to attend (Run DMC/Jazzy Jeff and Fresh Prince/Public Enemy/EPMD/JJ Fad). You are the only person I know who can claim to have seen Anne Murray as well as Chuck D.
