The first concert you ever went to

[Nt Bomber]

Seen Zappa at the Hordern Pavillion in Sydney 75 or 76 played for about three hours. Highlight of the show was when Norman Gunstan got up and played harmonica.

Also seen Radio Birdman at North Sydney oval in 70s playing in a battle of the bands, tied equal first with some other band who I forgot and never heard of after.

Its a shame Real Life werent playing, and you would have got the quadrella of 80's Aussie haircut electronic bands.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Kiss at VFL Park in 1980.
Think 'The Eyes' (and whatever happened to them?) were the support.

Do remember sneaking into the old Doncaster Inn (could you believe it?)
and The Cure were on around the same year.

 

[petmax]

Fear Factory at Metropolis Freo in 1997 (I think that was the year) on their 'Obselete Australian Tour. It f*cken went off!

At the tender age of 10...........my aunty took me to Sunbury '73.
Saw Daddy Cool , Billy Thorpe and the Aztecs etc.
But the most memorable thing i saw was Queen getting booed off stage........lol

 

[Muffo]

I wasnt really a huge music fan when i was younger, but i suppose my first real concert (if you call it that) was seeing Superheist. That was pretty good.

 

[Woodson]

Should of been Queen's 'The Works' tour in 1983 >>> regret that one.

But the first one was special anyway. TWISTED SISTER @ Festival Hall March 10th 1985. $15. Dee Snider ROCKS!!. Still a fan to this day and an SMF forever.
