I was snuck into a punk concert when I was just 9-10 years old , I was thrown around by a bunch of adults for almost the whole concert crowd surfing the mosh pit. Definitely an experience. Never ever crowdsurfed like that again. I was walking on people’s hands across the stage and the band was loving it. Eventually the security guards captured us and kicked us out.

I saw The Only Ones with my dad. They're an old band most people have never heard of, but their most famous song, Another Girl Another Planet, is my dad's favourite song. The place was full of 40 to 60 year olds. I might have been the youngest person there, but other mums and dads had brought along their kids who were milling about awkwardly like me to start with. Peter Perrett, the lead singer has had a long history of drug use and came out looking like a skeleton. It's frankly a miracle the guy is still alive, but the gig itself was fantastic. Despite the age of the band and audience, everyone was going for it. Great fun. It was somewhat marred by a group that kind of stuck out. In amongst the dads and mums and young teens was this group of about five 20-something year old guys. They were all absolutely smashed. They seemed to have one guy who was the main driving force who kept insisting that he get lifted up to crowd surf. Remember what I said about the age of the audience? Yeah they were not going to be taking the weight of a drunk moron onto their bad backs so the friends that lifted him up had no one to pass him on to. Solution? They just awkwardly carried their friend to the front, which parted like the Red Sea, they dumped him over the barrier, then he ran around to rejoin them to a big cry of "WAHEYYYYY!" You might be thinking "So these guys just turned up at a random concert to get trashed and muck about" well no, they were actually Only Ones fans. This was apparent as the ring leader kept shouting at Peter Perrett at full volume "PETE! PETE! YOU'RE A F****** LEGEND MATE! YOU'RE A F****** LEGEND!"

Great night.

I actually don't recall.  The earliest one I remember going to was Clapton.

I’m so jealous the doors are one of my favourite bands. He was long gone before I was born

My 1st concert was Tenacious D, kyle Gass and Jack Black. The energy he has, was more then he has in movies.  While my mother was pregnant with mee, sje was stationed in Germany (army). She says my 1st concert was Iron Maiden, and Twiisted Sister was opener, but i might have the bands order mixed up.

Besides eating dinner with the Beatles I really dont think anyone is going to beat getting sweat on by Jim Morrison as he sung to you in the first row. Talk about setting the bar high! Lol

    This is a little off topic but...  Morrison, Hendrix, and Joplin all ODed and the Beatles broke up just a little before I was old enough to go to Rock concerts.  If I was just a year or two older I would have seen all of these acts.
