Now this just makes me feel old. My first concert was Bow Wow Wow. I saw the Police in the Syncronicity 1984 Tour. I've seen Duran Duran, Supertramp, Erasure, and UB40. Come to think of it, at the end of this month I B 40!

In the last year I've seen Gary Numan (twice!) and the Who. That's the third time I've seen the Who as a group (I also saw Pete's '93 solo tour). I've seen NIN three times, David Bowie twice, the The three times, Poi Dog Pondering four times. I saw the first two Lollapalooza tours and saw the B-52's, the Sugarcubes, and Rage Against the Machine.
My first concert ever was Ziggy Marley. The lights went down and lighters started to flicker all around the hall. A couple of minutes later my friends and I (sheltered high schoolers all) asked each other "what's that funny smell?"
I'll be working every night of the Police's stay in LA, so I'll have to miss that, which sucks, big time.

Cranberries twice. 2nd time was a smaller more intimate venue. I enjoyed it.
My first concert was as a 11 year old? Def Leppard.
Quennsryche, Collective Soul, REM, B52s, Aerosmith, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Green Day, Blind Melon, Lenny Kravitz, Beastie Boys, Crystal Method.
There are more I just can't remember them all. I missed Gipsy Kings(for a very good reason) in Feburary and I am still upset about it.

I really like music (especially live music) but I'm just not that into concerts for some reason.
I always feel like I should be having a better time than I am at them. I think it must be the big crowds that annoy me because all the artists I've seen have been wonderful and I never seem to have the problem at smaller, more intimate music settings.
Anyway here are the few I've seen -
R.E.M. (my first concert) Portishead Radiohead Pulp The Strokes The Roots Chris Isaak Belle & Sebastian The Shins Red Jezebel

Joeboy, I'm a DJ fan myself. I am getting a bit old for the techno scene now. I think George Acosta was the last DJ I saw...at 31 I felt old there. Everybody looked much younger. Well there were some people that looked really old and silly. I figured I fall into that group.
