You never forget your first … concert. A survey found that 60% of respondents said they remember every second of the first live concert they went to, and 56% remember how happy they felt.
Scott's Thought:
- My first concert is hard to say. I went with my mother to Lakeside for several country music concerts including Conway and Lorretta. But I was only interested in riding the shooting star over and over. So I can't really count that. I think for me it was KISS at the Roanoke Civic Center in 1979. I was only 10 years old. I remember it like it was yesterday. Amazing showmanship. The lights, the sound, the fire, the drum solo, the blood... I remember it all. I remember Peter Criss doing "Beth" and slamming the microphone down on the stage. I remember Paul Stanley smashing the guitar at the end. It was also my first contact buzz. It wasn't my last. LOL.
