Your first concert and tix price

[PYChewHi]

Curious to know what band(s) played your first concert you ever attended.

Giving away my age here, mine was Aerosmith with Frank Marino & Mahogany Rush playing warmup.

Tickets were $4 plus a .25 cent handling fee for the nice round total of $4.25 per ticket.

Suicidal Tendencies and Red Hot Chili Peppers in 86 or 87 I think. Tix were $12.

Van Halen 1984 Jump, ticket $10. I saw Aerosmith in 1988 with Guns N Roses opening for around $14-15 at Starplex in Dallas. Myself and several buddies went on a month long band tour, started with monsters of rock in Memphis, Van Halen, scorpions, Metallica, kingdom come, crazy good show, next it was poison and I think queens rych in little rock. Next was 3 dog night and BTO at dog patch and then Aerosmith and GNR, what a month of partying and rocking!!

First I bought myself was Bush back when I was 13. Was a good show for young me! Think they were around $20 which was no big deal to me, I had a paper route

The first concert that I bought tickets for was Hank Jr. back in about 90 or 91 when I was about 16. I think I may have paid about $25 for tickets for me and some chick.
