To ask you who the first band you saw in concert were?

[DannyOD]

My one can pinpoint my age almost exactly...... it’s A-ha at the Royal Albert Hall.

Alice Cooper Schools Out Tour Montreal Forum 1972
Dared to attend I was 15

The Damned, Hammersmith, December 85.

Another one admitting to Showaddywaddy (I’m still deeply uncool)

The Ramones, 1989; somewhere in London

Freddie and the Dreamers and Dave Clark Five Blackpool North Pier c1964 - brilliant

The spice girls ! I was 9!

Adam and the Ants - Prince Charming review somewhere in the early 80s.

Just found an original ticket stub on eBay! No under 18s admitted .....I was 15!

The Sweet at Southend Kursal in the 1970's. I thought I had died and gone to heaven!

The Clash supported by the Slits and John Cooper Clarke :)
I'm old but still feel very cool because of this first gig.

When I was 10 years old... Buddy Holly and the Crickets!!

Metallica, Wherever We May Roam tour, 1992

The Rolling Stones, Romford Odeon in, I think , 1965.
Also saw them the following year, so '66.
They were those ensemble tours and also on the bill were Ike and Tina Turner, the Hollies and Dave Berry (Or was it Wayne Fontana? There were others but the memories are lost in the mists of time.)

Tom Robinson band 1979 , I was 13 /14 , my dsis and I have probably seen Tom at least once on every tour since .

Japan at Portsmouth Guildhall, 1982. Ticket cost £3.50. David Sylvian

Ladydick - i saw them too! Travelled all the way from Manchester and slept on a park bench

Rolling Stones, Longleat, 1964; also Billy J Kramer who was the warm up act.

Aw PutYourShirtOnMartin that’s lovely. If only I’d known all those years ago you could’ve stayed at mine!

The Wedding Present, it would have been 1991-2, I think.

Rolling Stones - Wembley 1982. Supported by Black Uhuru and The J. Geils Band.

H.I.M in either 2002 or 2003 at the Astoria in London (RIP, sob). Bam Margera was there and jumped off the balcony like an idiot, hurt a girl iirc (I remember at the time being totally jealous that someone famous landed on her!)

DGRossetti I saw the Stones on that tour too, but in Leeds, Roundhay Park.

Pink Floyd with Syd, in a west end basement 1966/7.

Culture Club, Melbourne Entertainment Centre in 1984

The pretenders with ub40 as a support act the late 70’s
