A Sense of Doubt blog post #3721 - SoD Reprint of Hey Mom #1102 - Falling Off The Roof and First Concert. sensedoubt.blogspot.com/2025/0

picture of me showing where I fell off the roof

The flyer from my very first concert. I was visiting my big brother in college on the mainland in Madison. While there, he took me to my first real show. James Brown blew my pubescent mind wide open and I’ve been addicted to live music since. #firstconcert #jamesbrown #livemusic

The topic of first concerts we saw came up today and I was floored to realize that *today* is the thirtieth anniversary of my seeing Pink Floyd in concert at the Big O (Olympic stadium) in Montreal.

What a band to see live. And really set expectations way too high for other concerts.

What was your first concert?

A ticket to the Pink Floyd Concert in Montreal on May 24th, 1994.

Pop Will Eat Itself at Reading University at some point in 1994, very much unlike what I was expecting from a gig, and my ears were ringing for got knows how long. I do have tinnitus, I wonder if it was from that gig...

@Geri Dpending on your definition of #firstconcert (I'm not including the myriad bands who were on in my students' union while I was also there drinking), I'm defining it as going to see Symphony Of The Goddesses- the London Philharmonic playing music from the Zelda games- which I'm told was on May 23, 2013.

I bought a ticket in the cheap seats, then decided that since I was never going to get an opportunity like this again, bought a second, better seat.

I went to see it again in 2015.

I saw Ian Dury and the Blockheads
I was 9, so sometime late in 1982

It was kind of a bucket list thing 😎

My wife just booked the perfect remedy against post conference blues for #AgileTD. On the weekend after #AgileTD the band "Heavysaurus" plays in our city and we'll go to the concert with the kids 🤘
Who wouldn't want to see dinosaurs play rock and metal?

The first concert I ever went to: Debbie Gibson

I was pretty young, and went with my mom (I was such a big fan!). Throughout the concert, Debbie was drinking water from red plastic Solo cups. After the concert ended and people were leaving, my mom made her way to the stage where staff were cleaning up and asked for one of the used cups. She got one and gave it to me, and I kept it for YEARS.

@arpcomics #FirstConcert, Jimmy Buffett, with my parents. I think I was thirteen? Good times were had.

#BestConcert...does not compute. I can’t stack experiences against each other like that. One amazing one that comes to mind was maybe ten years ago. A couple of German guys, Georg Schroeter and Marc Breitfelder — keyboardist/singer and harmonica player — at a tiny blues club in San Francisco. Crazy gorgeous, crazy intense. Haunts me.
