First concert - what band?

[hwy747]

First Concert was "Live" on their mid 1990's tour, for secret samadhi album if I remember correctly

Best concert - There has been a few. There isn't one that stands out as THE best but some honourable mentions are Lamb of God / Devildriver a few months back, Nightwish, Disturbed and local Sydney lads Lord and Daysend (which are playing together on tomorrow night at the Gaelic club in Sydney if anyone is interested)

Actually I agree with you there, got free tix to it, wasnt expecting much and they were awesome! Considering it was only 3 original members and jonathon davis was stopping for oxygen between songs haha

First major concert: Grinspoon 2004? (I don't really like them though)
Second major concert: Placebo 2006 (only cause the were really the only kind of big decent thing to come around)
Third concert (and the first concert I really wanted to go to): Nine Inch Nails (2009). I had to see them at least once before they stopped touring.

First festival: Soundfest (not Stonefest) at the University of Canberra (2007).

Other than that, I've been to a handful of local shows. Kinda bummed I never went to a metal for the brain.

I think it was Pennywise / Blink 182 late '95 or early '96 in a place called The Roxy in fortitude valley. Show ended in a riot/stage invasion which saw most of Pennywise's gear trashed. Watched some of it from being crushed against the barriers and then climbed up on top of the PA and watched the rest of the gig from there. Was a very good show.
