Your First Concert was.....


My first concert was Arlo Guthrie at the Shaffer (sic) Music Festival in Central Park, NYC. It cost 2 bucks and it was for his "Running Down the Road" album.

I used to see Black Oak in Asbury Park NJ. They would end their show by smashing 2 guitars together. They were great. I still play their first album.
I saw the Jefferson Airplane in Asbury Park for the Volunteers album. My friends Dad put bread in his ears to help with the volume. All those fists pumped in the air changed everything for me.
Guy Lombardo, Dave Clark Five, Iron Butterfly, now that's what I'm talking about.
Warrenh, this post is for your first concert not your best concert. Let's try to stay focused.
I saw Focus as well. They played Hocus Pocus and variations of it the whole show. It was still fun. I saw the Allman Bros just when Duane died but Berry was still alive. They did not cancel the tour.
And the winner is....Blind Faith in Goleta CA Wbs
There's a lot of great shows here, a hell of a lot, but seeing Blind Faith, let alone as your very first concert, well that's hard to beat.
Mcrheist, you certainly have no reason what so ever to apologize, in fact I too would be proud to list that as my first concert. You got to see the first celebrity to starve herself to death. Same goes for you guys who saw the Mamas and the Poppa's. Cass Elliot ate herself to death. Now that's history man.
Drubin, The Blues Project were great! They had a song called "Never go back to Georgia" I was 10 years old in 1966 and I knew a great song when I heard one.
Drubin, I made a mistake. I was thinking of the Blues Magoos. A NYC band from the same era.
