back in 1985 i saw warrent n poision and got to stand next to the warrent's cherry pie girl bobbie brown. she was on the sound stage and i was at the perfect level to see her pussy when she squated to talk to some other girls ..........best thing i ever saw at a concert

I say your work there was commendable, indeed, but maybe not what most would regard the typical Woodstock experience! An older friend related his experience there to me, & while he had some vivid memories, he was a little fuzzy on some other things!
I'm only a little younger than you, & anyone who can remember the Chambers Bros. AND Amboy Dukes is clearly dating themselves

Jay, QTPie...

I love Nirvana's music also. I don't know if they did any concerts in Australia, but I would have been too young to see them anyway. I would have loved to see them in concert.

Best Concert?


Easily Van Halen on the Balance tour, at the Jefferson County Civic Center in Birmingham.

I wanted to go, but no one I knew wanted to go with me, so 3 hours before the show I purchased my ticket at the arena. I could hear the sound check being done in the back ground. I asked if there were any tix left and the lady said she had one in the front row. Needless to say I got it.

Later that night during the concert, I was rocking with my new best friend (for the 3 hours anyway) when during the chorus of "Panama" Sammy Hagar was going all over the stage getting everyone revved up, when he lowers his microphone down to me and says "sing it, man!!", so I got to help sing the chorus to the song.

None of my buddies at work believed me when I told them what happened till about 3 days later when a friend of a friend came into the music store I worked at..and told them that she saw/heard what happened at the concert, because she and her friends were about 4 rows behind me, and finally convinced them that I didnt make it all up.

Another good one was Skid Row, who came to the store for a promotional gig. They signed autographs etc at the store for about 2 hours, and then they bought a TON of stuff. It was strange seing Dave "Snake" Sabo of Skid Row walking out of the music store with the Frank Sinatra Box Set, some how that doesnt fit the "image". lol

They performed a concert that night and we at the store got Back-Stage passes for the entire concert and party afterwards. What a riot, but still not as good as VH.

Just a side note..best concert I missed was Pink Floyd on the Pulse Tour at Legion Field in B-Ham AL. If ONLY I could go back and see that one.......alas.

I would hav killed to see Van Halen/Hagar. Still one of the concerts I regret having missed. Lucky you!

I don't know if I could pick the best... I've been to a LOT of good shows and some of the best were local Seattle bands playing in clubs downtown. But Rush was a standout, coupla years ago they played all of 2112... Weird Al Yankovic had a great show...
White Zombie and Pantera had a killer show together! Those are some of my fave BIG concerts.

AL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG,

He came to the Clio Amphitheater here 3 years ago and I went and stayed for the entire show in a downpour, I was laughing so hard, my gut ached for the next 24 hours. For as silly as he is, his talent is just phenominal.

I wish I had the talent he has in his pinky finger.

I'd be doing alright.

It was not long after Kurt Cobain died that Wierd Al played Seattle, so a lot of people wondered if he would play "Smells like Nirvana". The stage was completely dark and we heard Al say, "This next song is respectfully dedicated to the memory of Kurt Cobain..." The place erupted in cheers as the opening chords were played and my friends and I rushed to the front to start moshing and we were quickly dispersed... We figured it would be fitting being Seattle and all, but security didn't feel the same. But your right Nutworld... Al is one Highly talented individual!

Scotz,
Does that mean that the TIME HAS COME TODAY for a JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF YOUR MIND!

I grew up in Branford,Conn.It is next to New Haven so I went to
alot of concerts at the Yale Bowl.My uncle(fathers brother)was the
sports reporter for the New Haven Register;newspaper.He got alot of free tickets for any Yale function.Unfortunately;most of my
memories;of concerts there;in my teens;consisted of how stoned that you could get just by sitting in one of the rows.If you didn't
get wasted on the smoke; there was usually a joint going;
indiscriminately;up and down the aisles!In my day;thats all you cared about as a teen. Irish
P.S.Mispent youth!All that was important was sex,drugs&rock&
roll;in that order.

took that journey years ago... it was dark & scary there LOL

Irish, since you were seeing shows in New Haven, were you by chance at the infamous Doors show when Jim Morrison got maced backstage before the show? Stoned as you might have been, that would have been a standout memory!

Scotz---No;I wasn't there.I was in the service from 1961-1965;so I wasn't there then.I saw a special;on VH-1;on Jim Morrison and
The Doors.They mentioned it in that.Jim Morrison was one of those people that you either liked or didn't.He was very talented;
but;like myself;was outspoken about the way that he wanted things done.Most people don't know that he was an alcoholic;at a
very young age.I can relate to that.The 15th was 9yrs.8mo. since
I stopped drinking alcohol.I am a recovering alcoholic.I noticed that you sign off with a Steven Wright quote.I used to love his comedy because he was so dry in his humor.I never see him anymore! Irish
P.S.They sell 1/2pts. of booze in Conn.I used to make money by
chugging a 1/2pt. of Flieshmans Whisky(90Proof)when I was 15
& in High School.I graduated at 17 in 1961.
P.P.S.The special starred Val Kilmer as Jim Morrison.
