I remember him either wearing all pink - or it was all white, but the gels on the spotlight were pink. It was very special. And my dad took me.
The first concert I took K-Bug too - Rob Zombie.
Zoe: So you two were kissin'? Book: Well. Isn't that... special?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I went to the same H&O concert tour as JZ, Vortex and Plei as my first concert.
Would that I had, but alas, I didn't ever see them live! I just think it rules that y'all did.

Anyone want to wager a guess at my first concert?
Hah, I was totally going to guess NKOTB, but Jilli beat me to it.
My first concert (that I paid money for, I don't count the free 4th of July ones we usually went to downtown) was either Barenaked Ladies (during their getting-radio-play-but-band-was-not-yet-huge Old Apartment days) or...Lilith Fair. Aww, yeah.

My mom and dad took me to Shaun Cassidy as a surprise. We went to Atlanta (were living in Spartanburg, SC at the time) for the weekend and I think he played at the Omni. We went out to dinner and next thing I knew, we were seeing Shaun! That is a pretty awesome memory, actually. Sweet parents! Except for the "Hey Deanie" taunt 30 years later...

My first on my own with friends concert was New Edition (I was like 14, I think). Hell, I still like me some New Edition. I'm not ashamed!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think my first concert was Whitney Houston. It was really good--she had a great male acapella group opening for her, and she sang lots of non-pop songs as well.

My first concert was Bon Jovi, on the Crossroads world tour. Oh yes.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I don't think of Shaun Cassidy as a rock star, but as a Hardy Boy.
Me too. I had a serious crush on Parker Stevenson at the time. Of course, I'm not sure *how* serious it was considering I also had crushes on Richard Hatch (Battlestar Galactica) and Anthony Andrews (Danger UXB, which was playing on Masterpiece Theater).
Yes, I was young, and they were my linoleum. And yes, Sunday night was the best night on television.
