So the latest meme on facebook has been around the first concert you've seen.
So I ask you, what was your first concert?
Simon: I'm trying to put this as delicately as I can... How do I know you won't kill me in my sleep? Mal: You don't know me, son. So let me explain this to you once: If I ever kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed.
'Serenity'

Oh, man, Jodeci! Now I just want to make a playlist of 80s and 90s black boy bands: NE, Boyz II Men, Jodeci, Shai, H-Town, 112. Dude. What ever happened to black boy bands? They've totally fallen off.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Dude, the acapella that Boyz II Men pulled out for their version of that song is not to be trifled with. It's just a beautiful, beautiful thing.
OK, I just listened to it on YouTube, and yeah. Much prettier. BUT STILL.

The status is NOT quo.
Steve Miller Band!
ETA: Was my first concert, not my favorite boy band. Important clarification.

Curiously, Steve Miller was my second concert. (With Little River Band opening.)

H-Town
Oh shit. I have a ridiculous college memory of being in a car hearing "Knockin the Boots," on our way to the beach, right after I had gotten high with my coworkers on our way home from my evening-shift telemarketing job, and that song tripped me out.
I was never into 112, for whatever reason.

I think my first real concert was the aforementioned BBD/Johnny Gill/Keith Sweat.

Frank Small. Who no one knows. Next one? Metallica. No, really. Xmas present to my brother. One of Cruces' rare snowstorms.
I didn't really do concerts. Still don't. Besides those? Baez, Tracy Chapman in Prague and, um.... lisah's?
