I don' t know if this has been brought up before or not, but what was everybody's first, most resent ,best and worst concerts? I'll start:
First:
Matthew Good Band, July 20, 2000, Sarnia Bayfest
Most Reasent:
Watershed III, September 1, 2002, Walkerton, Ontario (Featured Barenaked Ladies and a bunch of country bands I don't terribly like - BNL kicked ass as usual though.)
Best:
(Tie) Paul McCartney, May 1, 2002, Detroit, Michigan (Always a dream of mine to see one of the Beatles in concert. Worth every penny of the $300 my parent shelled out for this, my 17th birthday present.)
(Tie) Our Lady Peace, July 11, 2002, Sarnia Bayfest (By far, the best show of the weekend.)
Worst:
Tragicially Hip, July 12, 2002, Sarnia Bayfest (Band was great, kinda wished I had gone by myself.)

First: Warped Tour 2000 with Green Day
Most Recent: The Tragically Hip at Darien Lake last Sunday. It was absolutely wonderful. I quit my job over it.
Best: Hmm...this is a toughie. Stone Temple Pilots on April 21st, 2002 at Cornell. The crowd was amazing, and they just put on a hell of a show.
Worst: Warped Tour 2000. Green Day was awesome, but it was way too long (12-8:00), and I didn't really care for any of the other bands that were playing.

I know! I hate this not having been to a concert crap!
However, I've got a shitload of money saved up from my summer job. I'm now awaiting OLP's Canadian tour.

I've never been to a concert. I'm the most deprived human being on the face of the earth. Wait, unless you count Billy Ray Cyrus and Neal McCoy when I was about 7. Does that count?
