Went to a Jade concert with one of my older cousins in the early 90s at Morehead State University. I can remember them dancing half naked all over the stage singing, "Don't walk away boy. My love won't hurt you" Smile

I can still hear that song in my head to this day. Only song I remember. Didn't and don't necessarily care for that type of music, but it was fun being 14/15 running around with the college kids. I thought I was so cool. Confused

hh:

What you know, here is the very song and group.

I bet a Poison concert back in the day was awesome.

Where you in college when Jade performed. We had front stage seats, right in the middle, if I remember correctly.. Where did you sit? With us??

Anyone remember the Ratt/Poison tour? It wasn't nearly my first but one of my favs!
Best show was KISS back in the late '70's, Loudest was definately Quiet Riot!

Quiet Riot was/is some great head banging music.. Would of loved to seen them in concert back in the day. Bang your head, mental health with drive you mad.. :Thumbs: Where and when did you see?

~~NEWARKCATHOLICFAN~~ · 01-23-2009, 02:30 AM

Ted Nugent was my loudest concert ever.

~~15th region slamdunk~~ · 01-23-2009, 02:35 AM

If you want to count WWE (wrestling) as a concert, then that was it, went to a house show in Huntington WV.. if not, Linkin Park was my first actual concert.

guyfawkes · 01-23-2009, 03:21 AM

Tom Petty with Jackson Browne opening for him, it was awesome.

I don't remember the RATT/Poison tour.

I did see RATT/Bon Jovi back in ~85 or so.

Ozzy and Metallica in Charleston WV was by far the loudest I ever heard. :beavis:

My first concert was Poison / David Lee Roth in Huntington, WV. I think it was 1988. We sat about 100ft from the stage but by the end of Poison's set, we managed to sneak up to the very 1st row for Diamond Dave.

I think I was, graduated in '94 and then lived in Morehead for a few more years. I can't really remember where I sat, went to about every concert MSU had during 90-97.

Well, if you count the first one I ever attended, I attended the first Autumn Jam here in Pikeville. It was Patty Loveless and Ricky Van Shelton. Pretty big for the time! But I was about 7, so I didn't really have a choice in the matter. The first that I actually wanted to go to was Backstreet Boys in Rupp Arena in..... lets see.. probably 2001. And I have been to a ZILLION since then. I am a concert addict. My next is Slipknot/Coheed and Cambria/Trivium in Rupp on Valentine's Day, and after that I see BRITNEY SPEARS in ATL on March 5th. YAY!

To be honest...the years kinda run together on me. We went to lots of concerts back then. It woulda been early to mid '80s. In Huntington, Girls school and someone else opened....there were three of us that went and nearly got killed by this biker group!! lol...but there leader wanted to watch the concert more than getting us all kicked out!! thank goodness.
I remember a Poison concert in Huntington and my wife went with us but we were just dating at the time. but anyway...she didn't like the loudness of it all so she went out front to wait til it was over when this girl came walking out out totally naked and stoned and asked my wife where the restrooms were and my wife just looked at her and said..."I bet your parents are really proud of you"! She never went to anymore concerts with us.

OH MY GOODNESS.

Was Midnight Star with him?

Girlfriend at the time convinced me to go.
It was amazing what a girl can convince you to do when you are 16-17 years old.:o

Me and my best friend went to Brandy with our friend's girl........ Brandy's not my type of music, but our friend's girl wasn't ugly and she had front row tickets (I'm in the dark hat, this was before the wreck).

Here's a picture:

I barely remember it, but I actually saw Elvis a year or two before he died. I think it was either in Huntington or Charleston. I do believe that was my first concert. I'm old.

Tatertot · 01-25-2009, 08:22 PM

Mine was Motley Crue/Whitesnake. It was somewhere in the mid 80's, about '86. I loved it.
However, AC/DC has been the best, by far.
