I have saved most of my stubs since I was in the Navy ('87-'91) but I usually stick them in the CD jewel case of the current cd that the band was supporting. Since I have 4000+ CDs it would take a bit of doing to identify them all. I do remember my forst 3 concerts off the top of my head:

~1981 - J. Geils Band - Freeze Frame tour (opener - ???)
~1983 - John Cougar - American Fool tour with Scandal - Warrior
~1984 - Ozzy Osbourne - Bark at the Moon tour with Motley Crue - Shout at the Devil

That third one was where I found my groove and I haven't looked back since.

Lucky Girl, Kittybeast, The US FESTIVAL. I remember the show well just could not go. You reminded me of some other shows that I have seen. Now I am inspired to go home look through all of my stubs and start logging information. See you at Heaven and Hell.
 
Way cool! That must have been a great time! Did you have a good spot to see?

:lol: :lol: :lol: well I got as close as possible during the Scorpions (right side stage but still about 500 ft. away) and was somewhere around the first speaker tower from the stage when Van Halen came on.

The closest I ever got that weekend was about 5th person back on Saturday when the Stray Cats played.

Wow, I’m amazed at the folks who could reconstruct their entire concert history. I was pretty easily able to remember what happened in 1985 and 1986, and then the last 20+ years are a bit of a blur. (I don’t think that is a good sign…)

1985 – Night Ranger / Black’n’ Blue (Spokane Opera House)
1985 – KISS / Queensryche (Spokane Coliseum)
1985 - Night Ranger / Van Zandt (Spokane Coliseum)
1986 – Judas Priest / Dokken (Tacoma Dome)
1986 – Stryper (Paramount Theater, Seattle)
1986 – AC/DC / Queensryche (Compton Terrace, Phoenix)
1986 – Queensryche / Keel / Black’n’Blue (Tucson Community Center)

(Nope, didn’t like Queensryche at all back then…)

Edit: Oh, HELL. So much for my memories of 1985 and 1986. The thread about Night Ranger reminded me that I saw them a second time with Van Zandt opening...
 
Headbangers Ball Tour - Helloween, Exodus, Anthrax - Houston Texas 1988

Oh the terrible jealousy. :cry:

I can't really remember dates as well as some people, but here goes:
Gigantour 05 (Megadeth, Dream Theater, etc.)
Masters of Rock 06 (Masterplan, Whitesnake, The Gathering, Kreator, Rage, Helloween, Gamma Ray, Evergrey, Crucified Barbara, Leaves' Eyes, Charon, Mike Terrana, Within Temptation, Apocalyptica, Edguy, Korpiklaani, Riverside, Metal Church)
Stratovarius
Blind Guardian w/ Leaves' Eyes (3x)
PPUSA VII
Children of Bodom
Amon Amarth
G307 (Satriani, Petrucci, Gilbert)
Dragonforce


Pretty modest list compared to most of the ones in this thread. :OMG:
