      @IrishHeart that show solidified my love of punk forever!!

      Thanks for reviving this thread, Sean. Opening those tape cases took me on an awesome trip to my early show years. Pulled a few of some of my faves from back in the day.

          @Mizmazzle dang that's a good first show! I saw them in 96 iirc, Lollapalooza in New Orleans. My first show was Aerosmith on the Pump tour 😂. Joan Jett opened, which was pretty f'n rad.

            @popvulture hell yeah that’s a badass first concert! Two iconic bands for the ages!!

            @SKT totally miss the hard tickets!! I’m just glad we had them to keep when we were kids! I find I go through those tape cases about once a year and it makes me really happy to think about those shows and the friends I was with.

              Man I used to listen to Fugazi and the Melvins constantly. Still and always will love them.

              Think it, be it.

                I still can't believe Fugazi haven't reunited, frankly when we need them most.

                  @IrishHeart that’s awesome! I only got to see him that one time. Wish it had been more

                  One of my first gigs was Bowie on the Aladdin Sane/Ziggy Stardust tour in 1973. A mate and I caught the train into Birmingham and as we made our way to the venue, more and more Ziggy Stardust lookalikes joined the madding throng. As a couple of gauche 15-year-olds it was all a bit overwhelming and we wished we too had dressed up. Then, when Bowie came onto the stage as Alladin Sane, all the Ziggy's looked a bit outdated, and we felt a little less gauche.....

                    My mind went straight to Christian Bale first attending the Bowie show in Velvet Goldmine

                      @Giles I’m envious. I think we’re of a similar vintage but I didn’t get to see him until 78 at Bingley Hall in Stafford.
                      Every time I saw him there were people dressed differently according to their favourite album/era.

                        I sadly never got to see Bowie. If I could pick an era it'd probably be 77-80ish. Scary Monsters would've been an epic tour but as far as I know, he opted out from touring it after John Lennon was killed.

                          Roskilde 1993 - not my first, but one of the best festivals I‘ve been to. And guess what, the hottest gig there (IMO) was Bjørn Again.

                            Birmingham Town Hall FTW 🙂

                                Neil Young and Booker T. Where did that come from 🙂

                                    @endo what a cool lineup. Chris Isaak, Midnight Oil, Living Color, Neil…I still have some of their records from the 80’s.

                                      @Giles great venue, and I was down there just a few weeks ago to see a comedian.
                                      We probably attended some of the same gigs at the New St Odeon!
