 There I admitted it.
On the other hand, the above was my first concert not with parents.
 
 The first concert ever was Merle Haggard at Painter's Mill.  I think I was five.  Great show, yet, watching him on the revolving stage made me dizzy.

Captain 20 and the Kroft Superstars.  "Launch????  I SAID LUNCH!"
 
 The ice cream man that used to come down our block would flash that little Captain 20/Vulcan hand signal and tell us he was Captain 20.  At the time we thought he was really cool.  Looking back, what a creepy guy.

197? - Foreman Field - ODU - Norfolk, VA.
 CSNY - Lots of chemicals and courage in a bottle caused many interesting events that day.  I never knew a hot pony miller tossed from the top level of a stadium to the sidewalk outside (where individuals were in various state of being taken into custody) would explode like that and cause so many people to scatter instantly.

Either Wayne Newton on the mall 7/4/83 (thank you James Watt!) which was terrible, or Pointer Sisters at Merriweather around the same time . . . and were actually pretty good . . .

This one may win the prize!
 
 New york, new york, is everything they say
 And no place that Iâ??d rather be
 Where else can you do a half a million things
 All at a quarter to three
 When they palt their music, ooh that modern music
 They like it with a lot of style
 But tâ??s still that same old back beat rhythm
 That really drives â??em wild
 
 They say the heart of rock and roll is still beating
 And from what Iâ??ve seen I believe â??em
 Now the old boy may be barely breathing
 But the heart of rock and roll is still beating
 
 La, hollywood, and the sunset strip
 Is something everyone should see
 Neon lights and the pretty pretty girls
 All dressed so scantily
 When they play their music
 That hard rock music
 They like it with a lot of flash
 But itâ??s still that same old back beat rhythm
 That really kicks â??em in the
 
 They say the heart of rock and roll is still beating
 And from what Iâ??ve seen I believe â??em
 Now the old boy may be barely breathing
 But the heart of rock and roll is still beating
 
 Dc, san antone and the liberty town, boston and baton rouge
 Tulsa, austin, oklahoma city, seattle, san francisco, too
 Everywhere thereâ??s music, real live music, bands with a million styles
 But itâ??s still that some old rock and roll music
 That really drives â??em wild

Would you believe Beatle-mania at Constitution Hall somewhere around 1980?

honestly can't remember my first concert, poppa bear was taking me to see all the jazz great in my formative years.
 
 most embarassing concert experience there is tie.
 
 The Cut The Crap tour
 
 and
 
 Robert Plant w/ Phil Collins on drums.  embarassing because I went expecting other big stars to pop up like Pete Townsend.  "I'm in the mood for a melody"
 
 For the most embarassing momemt on stage... and it  almost an arseing moment at that.  in a literal case of "his balls being too big for his pants"  the trousers of Pop Will Eat Itself split just below the crotch and he was showing a bit of the pink for a song or two, before they tried to tape up the hole with duct tape.  Which didn't hold very long, so the roadie fetched a pair of striped pants which the lead singer pulled up on the outside of his trousers to cover up the hole.  :D

Easily my most embarrasing concert experience was my first.  My father took me to see Debbie Gibson at Merriweather Post for her "Out of the Blue" tour.  To this day he does not let me live this down.  Fortunately though, this concert experience is either balanced out or canceled out by my second concert experience, Sonic Youth's Goo tour at University of Maryland College Park.  Red Kross opened.  Whatever happened to Red Kross?
