So I ask you, what was your first concert?
Black Sabbath with Van Halen opening.
::polishes Metal cred badge::
Curiously, Steve Miller was my second concert. (With Little River Band opening.)
Emmett's first concert: The Stooges.
Wash: Psychic, though? That sounds like something out of science fiction. Zoe: We live in a space ship, dear. Wash: So?
'Objects In Space'

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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?

Our wings are not tired.
BUT! It could be that your friend might not be able to get on facebook as much as she'd like or that she has a lot of friends and doesn't scroll down all the time to catch up with what everyone posted since she was last on facebook or that she hasn't bothered to hide all of the rpg game announcements auto-posted by some of her other friends so she fails to see important things like pics of your gorgeous pups. Until now.
Heh. Nope, she's on all the time. I really am not at all bothered; I think it's funny. I don't get hurt about shit like that, because I know half my posts lately have been about my ear, and when that ends, the Giants will replace them. And the other half is usually about The Wigglebutts. It makes absolutely no difference to me if someone has me hidden in a feed. It just sticks out so much, considering all of my posts about my dogs, that she's asking if they're mine. I am still laughing. And she's an awesome person, actually, so I am happy that she's commented.

I'm getting the pig!
I think it was Lionel Richie. Or possibly Kenny Rogers. Not entirely by choice, mind you. First concert of my own choice would be Metallica.

I'm so happy I found someone else who shares my first concert shame. Shaun Cassidy. I don't recall the year, but it had to have been before 9th grade.

On the flip side, a friend of mine wanted me to go see Poison with her, and I wouldn't go, and regretted it later. Because I really liked them, even though I didn't want to!

Suzi, no worries. My first was Christopher Cross (with my parents as I was, I think, 8)

Because books.
The Police was my first concert. Also my first joint. The next two were Tom Petty and the Kinks.
